Harry Styles is asked if his new song is about Taylor Swift and it gets super awkward

What an interview fail.

Harry Styles had to know that someone was going to eventually ask this question. He really should have practiced his poker face in the mirror.

During a BBC Radio 1 interview, host Nick "Grimmy" Grimshaw asked the question that's been on everyone's minds -- is the song "Two Ghosts" about his famous popstar ex, Taylor Swift?

You'd think that Harry would have been prepped for it, but the singer froze up and got super awkward, shooting anxious glances at his manager Jeffrey Azamoff.

The singer eventually got it together and stumbled through his response.

"It's about... sometimes things change and you can be... you know, do all the same things and sometimes it's just different. You know?"

Nailed it.

Just when he thought he got through it, trust the ever cheeky Grimmy to make it awkward again. As "Two Ghosts" began to play, Grimmy introduced the song as "the one about Taylor Swift" and Harry crumbled.

Grimmy did him a solid by being the first to ask the question. Practice makes a cryptic answer perfect.
