Nophia in Telehit interview?
I think we can all agree that the Telehit interview got very weird at one point and that it was due to 30 seconds in it. Hereâs the Telehit interview (xxx) and the clip from it (xxx) if you donât have it on repeat as I have had for the last 24 hrs. So I first listened to the conversation maybe two times and went âokay Harry kept on talking about Sophia and Niall brought up Eleanor as a reminder but this was super weird?? Why was this going on and such an odd switch in mood and tension?â So I looked, listened and studied them all like a hundred times.
Okay hereâs the deal. Even if you think just the thought of something going on with Niall and Sophia is ridiculous, I want you (only for fun) to look at this clip, study Niall and pretend that it could actually not be that ridiculous. Put aside all your feelings about Niall, your favourite or the gif set that is going around. How would you read this moment then? It seems like a lot of people think this was Niall being a shit friend towards Harry and Harry throwing shade at Eleanor but I beg to differ.
âWould you ever date a fan?â
Liam: Niallâs actually currently going out with one
Louis: Yeah you are Niall
Niall: Boyâs Iâm going out with everyone
Liam: Congratulations (âŠ)
Look at Harry and how heâs looking at Niall while Niall is sounding not so convincing. It sounds like Niall is trying to avoid possible follow up questions on this and what the boys might say then.
To me it seems as if Harry gets an idea and is thinking about is before he saysâŠ
Harry: Does ehm Sophia likeâŠtheâŠthe music?
Niall only acts nervous at first. It was not until Harryâs comment that Niall turns to defensive mode.
Liam: She loves the music
The way Harry gesture and says âsheâs a fanâis soâŠsoâŠlike heâs saying well there you go the kind of sound in his voice and in his movement.Â
Niall: Thatâs a great answer (hmm I canât decide if I think itâs because of Liamâs answer or the âsheâs a fanâ one)
Hereâs the thing: Niallâs reaction to Louisâ commentâŠ
Just look at Niall! Why does he snap like that to Louisâ comment? He gets into defensive mode like âWTF Louis I had you and only you on my side to not be a dick about this?!â Niall gets so annoyed he even brings up Eleanor as a âwhat about you Louis? If youâre going to be a dick then so will Iâ.
Niall: (looks like his eyes are about to pierce trough Louis) Eleanor likes a couple of the tunes, now and then, doesnât she? THEREYOUGO!
Then it is Louis going âyeah yeah there you goâ in a voice like oh really Nialler thatâs so and someone says âa fanâ. Niall then, in between all the âyeahâ and âfanâ, says âthere you go: fansâ
Why is it so important for Niall to tell us that Eleanor is also a fan?
THEN Harry the little shit says âSophia loves Liam so technicallyâŠâ
Look at Niallâs eyes! Look at them going âare you fucking kidding me? Seriously? Even more of this?â Also look at Liamâs facial expression or lack thereof when Harry says âSophia loves LiamââŠcompare that to when someone is mentioning Loki for example.
Why Niall, why did you say that? Why so defensive?
Harry: âŠehm the girlfriends are fans
I think Niallâs âand I love Liamâ was him saying something like âlook guys I love Liam sheâs his beard and Iâm not doing this on purpose, weâre not supposed to have the hots for each otherâs beards because of what they represent but weâve already talked about this, why you being dicks and keep bringing it upâ.Â
 I also think Niallâs body language and defensiveness scream guilty, whatever that means.
Iâve seen this (xxx) gif set and what it fails to do is to have these moments in it: Liam not looking happy when Harry says âSophia loves himâ, Niall snapping with his head when he had realized what Louis said and âagreeingâ with Louis in an aggressive wayâ(Niall:)âso there you goâ
 The âHarry ignores Eleanor commentâ gif set doesnât show Niallâs body reaction to Harry turning to Liam saying âSophia is a fanâ. I donât think Harry had anything to do with the Eleanor comment or lack if it at first, that was Niall trying to save himself and strike back.
 Why is it such a touchy subject for Niall? Do you think itâs because of Ellie and Ed? Do we have confirmation that is wasnât just a PR move? If it did happen and thereâs nothing to find with Niall and Sophia, do you think Harry would be such a bad and mean friend to try start another rumor like this, when itâs clearly affecting Niall? âNiall should suck it up because Harrys been going through these type of womanizing rumors in the media for 4 yearsâ and Harry would do the same thing to his best friend and brother, so Niall feels what itâs like? I donât know about you but to me Harry doesnât seem like that type of person. I just canât wrap my mind around why Niall would be so visually moody and defensive if itâs just a harmless joke.Â
So why does Harry keep bringing up the idea of Nophia? Even after this interview, where you can clearly tell how much this is bothering Niall, Harry (with help from the other guys) still does it. A rumor he âcame up withâ or could it be that Harry loves to tell the truth but in the way that âeveryoneâ thinks heâs kidding? That sounds more like Harry to me than the mean friend who wants the same misery or his friend that heâs been going through for the last 4 years?!
My interpretation of all this is that it wasnât Harryâs intention to make a statement about Eleanor or shade her. I think he wanted to make it very clear that Sophia is a fan.
Iâm ending this as long post with Niall after the 30 secondsâŠ
