Getting to interact with Harry Styles can be an overwhelming experience as superfan Cyndi discovered when she appeared to faint.

Rather than it being kept in the family WhatsApp group the moment was broadcast to the world.

It all happened at the final recording of The Late Late Show with James Corden, which Cyndi had secured herself a ticket to attend.

Cyndi’s seat positioning on the aisle meant that she was in prime position to get close to Harry, 29, when he made his way down the stairs and onto the stage.

After Harry fist-bumped her, Cyndi fell backward into her seat.

The video spread like wildfire on the internet, with one video getting over 1.7 million views on Twitter.

Cyndi has now jumped on her own social media to give the behind-the-scenes details of the interaction.

Initially, Cyndi wasn’t sure if she’d even get in despite queuing from 9:30 in the morning as her tickets didn’t guarantee entry. When it became clear it was really going to happen, she began to lose her cool as she’s been a big fan of Harry for 13 years.

‘I kind of was like “Is this real?” I was disassociating at this point. I don’t know if I can see this man. I don’t know if I can be in a small room with this man.’

On the scenes that played out on TV, you can see Cyndi speak to Harry and she teased in a TikTok video: ’I know everyone is wondering what did I say to him.’

‘When I was finger-wagging I remember saying, “Come on King, yes King.” And that was the thing that made him look at me.

‘I fully like short-circuited, and basically, the moment you see in those .2 seconds felt like a full minute long.’

The next moment sounds like it came straight from a Nicholas Sparks romance novel. ‘He stops, he looks at me, and we lock eyes.’

‘I put my hand out and then take it back, then he gives me the fist-bump. He says, “Thank you”.’

She reveals this isn’t her first time having physical contact with Harry as the pair touched hands during a One Direction concert. Show-off!

‘He walks away, thankfully in time. All the anxiety, anticipation, and energy all of a sudden dropped the minute that man turned around. I gracefully sat on a seat.

‘I did not faint,’ she insisted. But if she did, we wouldn’t judge!

During the interview that Cyndi got to be in the room to witness, Harry told James, 44, that he’d ‘never say never’ to a One Direction reunion.

As the audience cheered loudly, James leaned in and gave Harry a high five.
