Watch as Harry Styles downs drink from shoe in bizarre Australian drinking game

HARRY Styles was the life and sole of the party as he downed a drink from one of his trainers on stage.

The Watermelon Sugar singer, 29, was performing in Perth when he did a shoey — the Aussie live music tradition of pouring a drink into a shoe and downing it.

But he refused to do so with booze, instead lacing his footwear with water for the smelly stunt.

A fan named Scott was shown doing his own shoey during the first night of Harry’s Australian tour on Monday, before the crowd turned to the singer to try it.

He filled up one of his green £575 Adidas x Gucci trainers with water, saying: “This is one of the most disgusting traditions I’ve ever witnessed.”

He then put his soggy shoe back on and joked that he felt tainted by the experience.
