Zeus Rocancourt

Zeus Rocancourt is a viral star, actor and model. He’s known for Harry Styles: Music for a Sushi Restaurant (2022). He chatted with PEOPLE magazine about his time on the set of Harry Styles’ newest music video.

“There aren’t many people who can say that they’ve been slapped by Harry Styles. In his new music video Music for a Sushi Restaurant, Styles plays a mermaid-like character—sub squid tentacles for a fishtail. After washing ashore, he is discovered by employees of Gill’s Lounge, who bring him back to their divey restaurant where his angelic voice is the only thing standing between him and the chopping block—literally.

Rocancourt has one line (‘Can I touch your tail?’) in the Aube Perrie-directed video, which is immediately met with a tentacle slap from Styles. And while his cameo is short—about two seconds long to be exact—it quickly became a fan-favorite moment. ‘I was definitely channeling the naïve person at the bar who doesn’t know boundaries and is definitely slightly intoxicated,’ the 25-year-old actor told PEOPLE.

‘It’s not every day you ask somebody to touch their tail,’ he continued. ‘It’s also not every day you see someone with a tail.'”
