Harry Styles just taught one fan a (grammar) lesson she’ll never forget.

Last week during a Philadelphia show on the band’s On the Road Again Tour, the One Direction member spotted a sign from [16-year-old fan Taelor Ford](http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/article/34149177/harry-styles-proves-hes-a-stickler-for-good-grammar) that read “Hi Harry! Your So Nice” instead of the grammatically correct “Hi Harry! _You’re_ So Nice.” But Styles wasn’t about to let his influence as a teen idol go to waste, so he gestured for Ford to pass the sign up to the stage, where he took to correcting it himself before giving it back to her.

The “You’re” vs “Your” mistake frequently draws the ire of the Internet, and Ford is no exception. Not all of the international attention she’s received since her brush with boy-band royalty has been positive, but at least she’s keeping her sense of humor about it.

## Transcript

British pop group One Direction is rumored to be taking a length hiatus in 2016, and fans are not happy about it. The Directioners report their sadness over report that Niall, Harry, Liam, and Lewis will spend at least a year apart working on solo projects starting in March. The hashtag OneDirection Quickly began trending and reached over 177, 000 mentions. People reported the members have no intention of splitting up for good. They just need a little time to do their own thing. A friend of the group told People there's no reason why they can't have lifetime careers both as a group and working on their own.

Solo projects. They also reported One Direction has a new album expected out sometime this year and will stay together to promote it through February of 2016.
