OHMYGOSSIP — Harry Styles became a musician because he was told there were “no jobs in physiotherapy”. The 26-year-old singer has become one of the world’s most recognisable pop stars over the last decade – but Harry has now admitted his life could easily have taken another direction. Harry – who first found fame as part of One Direction – told BBC Radio 2: “I think one of the first things to remember is that there’s now so many jobs that didn’t used to be jobs and I think so many people just get to do what they love and pursue it – and it’s kind of easy for me to say as I get to do it. “If there’s not an obvious career around it, I think you can try and find some way that you can make it a career, I guess. “Like, I always wanted to be a footballer but I wasn’t good enough, so I wanted to be a physio, and then we had a career day at school and I got told there were no jobs in physiotherapy so I became a musician instead!” Meanwhile, Niall Horan recently claimed that he and Harry never struggled in One Direction. Zayn Malik – who quit One Direction in 2015 – and Liam Payne have previously spoken about finding life in the band tough, but Niall insisted he and Harry are similar “happy, bubbly characters”. Niall said: “Some people handle things differently. Me and Harry had a great time in the band but I’ve heard some of the boys saying they’ve struggled with it mentally but that’s life. I’ve always been a happy-go-lucky type person. “The phrase ‘happy to be anywhere’ is me. Harry’s the same, bubbly character.”
