Who could forget Harry Styles' Grammy 2023 performance?

The "As It Was" hitmaker played his hit song at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles last month, and things didn't go as planned.

Several of his backing dancers later reported that the spinning turntable set they had continuously practiced on during their run-through threw them for a loop during the performance when it began spinning in the opposite direction.

Rather of becoming enraged at the stage technician for the technical glitch, Harry "phoned the team in charge to make sure they were okay."

Julio Himede, the set designer for the Grammys, told the BBC's Eurovision podcast that what occurred was "heartbreaking," because Harry's preparations were so "polished."

He gushed, "I was sitting there admiring how amazing Harry and his dancers were to just run with it and cope with it."

"To continue the performance live and suddenly think, 'I have to just go in reverse now,' is quite incredible."

What Happened During Harry Styles' Grammys 2023 Performance?

"What you don't know is that the moment the curtain opened and it was time to perform, our turntable started spinning in reverse," dancer Brandon Mathis said on Instagram.

"Backwards. Freaking all of us out on live television, and there was nothing we could do to stop it," the dancer told Rolling Stone.

Afterwards, he spoke about the "Don't Worry, Darling" actor, whom they had to troubleshoot and dance fully backwards.

"Talk about complete professionalism."

Viewers spotted Harry leaping off the spinning wheel and seemingly falling a bit during the performance, but he eventually regained his balance when going from the malfunction set to the more solid and non-moving stage.

Another backup dancer called Dexter remarked in the comments regarding their performance, which classified the entire set as "lethargic," that they studied the choreography for ten days before the concert was unfair due to the struggle they faced.

He went on to say that the dancers urgently tried to gain the attention of a stage tech about the mistake, but were forced to improvise and change their dance routine on the fly.
