Harry Styles decided it was time to add dolphin advocate to his résumé.
The One Direction singer, 21, urged fans not to go to Sea World during the group’s show in San Diego on July 9. Game of Thrones star Maisie Williams posted a video on her Instagram of Styles asking, “Does anybody like dolphins?” which was met with screams and applause from the audience. Styles went on to say “Don’t go to SeaWorld!”
PETA posted the Instagram video to their blog and said they will be “sending Harry a stylish ‘SeaWorld Kills’ shirt and a box of vegan dolphin-shaped chocolates.”
According to E! Styles has spoken up for dolphins in the past. He has worked with Ric O’Barry’s Dolphin Project.
SeaWorld released an open letter to Styles letting him know that they take care of their dolphins, and are constantly rescuing different creatures. The organization invited him to visit the park, ask questions, and tour behind the scenes.
This concert was One Direction’s first show on the North American branch of their tour. It was eventful night for Styles, as he fell on stage during the performance of the song “Through the Dark.”
