Harry Styles has been called out for 'white male privilege' after claiming that his Grammy Awards win is a rarity for ‘people like him’... but many fans think there's more meaning behind his controversial comment.

Beyonce fans were particularly incensed about Harry’s win as it was the fourth time the singer had been sensationally snubbed in the category despite being hotly-tipped to scoop the grand prize.

It sparked outrage among those who feel the popstar’s win over Beyonce and Latin artist Bad Bunny is a sign of a ‘white male privilege’.

However, many others – particularly from the UK – jumped to Harry’s defence and suggested that the singer was referring to his upbringing in a small town in Worcestershire, rising to fame on The X Factor and not having the benefit of nepotism.
