Giovanni, the autograph seeker who bills himself as the world's top in his Instagram bio, posted an apology to Harry Styles the night before October 23, days after an on-camera dispute on a Manhattan street. He says the row was over a signature on Styles' album Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally. "I was having a bad day and I was out of line," he wrote. "I take full responsibility and sincerely apologize to Harry."

In the same statement he credited Styles with settling it: "Harry didn't lose his cool. I did. He stayed calm and even helped calm me down." The album landed March 6 of this year.

Styles is mid-run on a 30-show residency at Madison Square Garden. Spotify says it plans to close the residency with what it calls the ultimate Harryween celebration, apparently bringing back James Murphy's vinyl-only Despacio night. Styles also told Anna Wintour to go to bed after spotting her in a recent crowd.
