From day one, Harry was painted as a womanizer. He was 16. A child. He was barely legal and seen as a sex symbol. Over the span of 10 years, he had 19 “girlfriends”. Paps have called him a f**.
He’s expressed many times, in the band and outside the band, how uncomfortable he was with it. Does this seem okay to you?

One Direction had 4 world tours and 5 albums in 5 years. That is not healthy. In One Direction: This Is Us there is a clip showing someone waking Zayn to record after a show. He’d been asleep for 10 minutes. Constant abuse from management caused both Zayn and Liam to suffer from+
depression and anxiety. Zayn developed an eating disorder because he neger bad time to eat. The boys drank alcohol before and during performances to relieve nerves. Zayn and Liam were pushed into using drugs and alcohol, Liam struggling with alcohol addiction.
Niall’s microphone had been turned down or off completely multiple times. It never happened to one of the other boys on their own. In so many pictures you can see him crying.
We all know the infamous cake incident with Louis. He was smiling, happy, and then he was flown out to LA by Simon to be talked to. His whole personality and demeanor changed. He went from a bubbly, hyperactive teenager who wore striped shirts and suspenders and became a bit of+
a bad boy. Not saying this wasn’t on his own accord, but it all seemed to happen right after he spoke to Simon.
Moving on from One Direction, they were trying to sabotage Little Mix from the beginning, Jesu Nelson had severe depression and anxiety and tried to take her own life and modest did absolutely nothing to help her at all, forced her to keep going on tv and doing performances when+
she needed to be getting help. They would force the girl to flirt with older men to get them deals ect and a bunch of other horrible things.
5SOS. Just today they went against Modest! by addressing the sexual assault allegations made against them. They were advised not to address the claims. Sexual assault claims are serious accusations. Modest was putting the band’s career in jeopardy.
Westlife was a band managed by Modest. One of their members, Mark Feehily, came out as gay a few years after their contract with Modest ended. He spoke on how he had a boyfriend, but he was set up with beards to hide his sexuality.
Rebecca Ferguson was abused by Modest. She was worked until she collapsed from exhaustion. One time she collapsed right before an interview and her managers gave her a coke and told her to just put up with it. She wasn’t allowed to see her kids. https://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-19558624
