Billy Porter is taking aim at Harry Styles once again.
A few years ago, the 53-year-old Pose star slammed the 29-year-old “As It Was” singer for wearing a dress on the cover of Vogue in 2020.
“I created the conversation [about non-binary fashion] and yet Vogue still put Harry Styles, a straight white man, in a dress on their cover for the first time,” Billy said at the time.
He later apologized to Harry, saying, “The first thing I wanna say is, Harry Styles, I apologize to you for having your name in my mouth. It’s not about you. The conversation is not about you.”
However, in a new interview, Billy once again slammed Harry along with Vogue Editor-in-Chief Anna Wintour.

While speaking with The Telegraph, Billy once again said that the only reason Harry got the Vogue cover was because he’s “straight and white.”
“It’s not Harry Styles’s fault that he happens to be white and cute and straight and fit into the infrastructure that way,” Billy said.
“That’s why he’s on the cover. Non-binary blah blah blah blah. No. It doesn’t feel good to me. You’re using my community — or your people are using my community — to elevate you,” Billy continued. “You haven’t had to sacrifice anything.”
Billy then claimed that months before Harry’s Vogue cover was released, Anna, 73, reached out to him about ways to “help” the LGBTQ+ community with representation.
“That b-tch said to me at the end, ‘How can we do better?’ And I was so taken off guard that I didn’t say what I should have said,” Billy concluded.
In another recent interview, Billy said that he has to sell his house amid the ongoing SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes.
