It was an unusual sight to say the least, but pop star Harry Styles was recently spotted holding a chicken on a street corner! When photos emerged of the 'Sign Of The Times' singer holding a chicken we were a little confused, but now we know why.

Photos taken by a fan and posted on Twitter show the singer wearing a blue and white chequered dressing gown holding a chicken in his arms.

The reaction to these photos was hilarious, with many responding with comments such as, 'Imagine reading this chicken's resume: Worked with Harry Styles.'

And 'A Sunday morning with @Harry_Styles in his dressing gown... and a chicken 😉🎥🐓 #HarryStyles'.

Now it has emerged this strange scene was all part of a new modelling campaign for Gucci.

The top end label recently posted a photo of Harry's hand on a dog with the caption, 'Hand and hound: peeking on set with @harrystyles for the new #GucciTailoring campaign. #AlessandroMichele'.

Since the first photo the label has continued to post two more photos. One photo is of a Polaroid of Harry outside a Fish and Chip shop, and the other photo is a close-up of the Fish & Chips sign.

🤔

We haven't yet found out EXACTLY what the new campaign is, but if it includes a chicken it's got to be pretty memorable!

Away from modelling Harry is still a very successful solo artist since One Direction started their hiatus a couple of years ago. At last month's BRIT Awards 2018 Harry won the category for British Artist Video of the Year for his single 'Sign of the Times'. Harry Styles fought off competition from Little Mix in this category leaving the group's fans very upset.

The vote for British Artist Video of the Year had been open for a month, with fans of the likes of Little Mix, Harry Styles, Taylor Swift and Liam Payne frantically voting for their favourites in the live Twitter vote.

When the vote finished during the main show, Little Mix fans believed they'd done enough to get the girls another award, however it wasn't to be.
