Please expound on the public edging day back in 2011(?) early days whatever bc it needs more exposure. PLEASD just talk about it.
I AM HERE FOR YOU! And I’m sorry I got sidetracked, but I had an fimq video plus actual work in my way. Okay, so public edging, there is a LOT of it (Dallas day is huge, a few radio show interview days, too, but the Nokia launch is a great, iconic piece because it’s the infamous finger and/or butt plug incident). Let’s look at the two clips you need to watch for the Nokia launch because I’m a firm believer in context, and it’ll take literally seven minutes of your life. The full Nokia launch puff piece is about 6 minutes long, and it’s here. Note, it has been edited to remove the fingering (sob, but I have that clip below, and you’ll immediately understand why), but it’s still worth your time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=39yBEByaonI
Memorable moments include 1:09 or so, when Zayn talks about how much they love singing and Louis interjects, “AND WOMEN!” and can’t stop smirking for, like, ten whole seconds. He also talks about how the phone they’re selling looks “quite good, quite sexy” after he’s been staring at Harry pretty much nonstop (and he keeps staring, to see his reaction, I guess??). At around 2:30 or so, Harry gets really squirmy, and Louis keeps looking down at his crotch (he starts flexing and talking about how much they’re all “buzzing,” too, which, okay). At 5:09 is when he starts praising “the boy with the curls, who wouldn’t love him?!” while Harry keeps squirming and everyone’s literally, like, wait, Liam has curls, too??
But this is it, the biggest, most WILD moment of public edging ever, and you can totally get why it got cut. I love that the clip’s title is “Louis fingering Harry,” and that’s WHAT IT IS, it’s not a manip, lmaoooo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OpDFLDmw2-M
