Video posted on Styles’ YouTube account this week showed the star opening up an early copy of Fine Line, his second solo album, and revealing interior artwork in which he is fully undressed.
The picture depicts Styles reclining naked from inside of an enormous red heart.
Speaking to SiriusXM Radio, Styles initially played coy about the cover art, saying he “allegedly” stripped naked for it.
But after being pressed by the show’s presenters, Styles confessed: “It’s me and I am naked.”
Fine Line’s exterior cover art, in which Styles is captured in a fish-eye lens wearing a hot-pink shirt, was taken by fashion photographer Tim Walker.
The album, Styles’ follow up to his 2017 self-titled solo debut, was described by The Independent as “a dextrous and audacious record” with “flickers of ingenuity”.
Styles has previously described the record as being “all about having sex and feeling sad”.
