One Direction singer Harry Styles has always been surrounded by rumours about his love life but the latest one about his alleged gay affair with U.S. President Barack Obama takes the cake. The 20-year-old singer has reacted to a tabloid report, saying that he has heard better rumours about himself than this one. The "Midnight Memories" singer, who has declined to perform at the White House in the past, was also teased by his bandmates for having some "powers in White House."

Obama may be happily married to Michelle and even has two daughters Malia and Sasha but that does not stop the tabloid National Examiner to put his picture on their cover page along with Harry Styles. "Obama hid gay lifestyle to be president. Marriage to Michelle is a sham. He had sex with this man," reads the cover page of the tabloid, which can be seen here.

When the ex-boyfriend of Taylor Swift was asked about his alleged affair with Obama, Harry claimed that he did not have any idea about any of that but later told entertainmentwise.com that he has had some "good ones" in his time and called this gay rumour with the President "interesting."

One Direction's bandmate Liam Payne did not let go this opportunity and made fun of Harry. "Wow, it's all getting a bit political! So, does that give you some power in the White House then?" joked Liam, to which Harry said, "Yeah, maybe."

The boys then dropped the ball in Niall Horan's court. "I feel like Niall would be a bit jealous." It may be noted that Obama's daughters Malia and Sasha are big fans of One Direction boys and were seen enjoying their concert in Washington in 2012.

Harry and Obama rumour has spread like a wildfiee on the social media, with many Twitter users making fun of it. Some of the people are tweeting to Harry Styles to confirm his affair with President Obama while others are calling them "power couple."

"I laughed at this for so long and so loud my mom thought I was on drugs," writes one user Hannah Rose on Twitter.

"Assuming this is true (which it is not), the real question here is: Are Sasha and Malia upset? Or Impressed?" writes Harrison Golden on Twitter. Check out the tweets below.
