Zayn Malik

Zayn Malik wasn’t the only former boy band member in attendance as Valentino unveiled their Spring Summer 2016 menswear collection in Paris on Wednesday.

Joe Jonas was also at the event, although he didn’t cause quite as much chaos with his fans outside the show.

The Italian brand described Zayn as “front row ready” on their Instagram page as he sported a smart knee-length jacket over a crisp white shirt and dress pants. The ex-One Direction star paired the fashionable look with his now bleached blonde hair.

Both Zayn and Joe were lucky enough to be sitting front row at the event and looked quite the street style icons as Joe chose a bold print for the major fashion occasion.

It looks as if Zayn Malik may be leaving Simon Cowell’s record label, Syco, to go and work with rapper 50 Cent instead.

50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, has already admitted to wanting to work with Zayn. “I want it to happen,” he told the Sunday Mirror.

“I can make him a lot of money and he can make me a lot of money,” Mr Jackson said. “The point I am making is he needs to be working with the right producers, artists, and people in the genre.”

The 39-year-old hip hop and fashion mogul has reportedly wooed Zayn by telling him that if he tries to make rap music with a pop label it could be “a little cringe, and he doesn’t want that.”

While Zayn maintained that his reason for leaving 1D was because he wanted to lead a normal life, it looks as if Perrie Edward’s fiancé has already begun work on his career as a solo artist.

Zayn has been working with producer friend Naughty Boy but their relationship has already been ensnared in controversy. 

The rapper MIC Righteous released a track that had Zayn's vocals on it. But Naughty Boy instantly claimed that the track was stolen and unfinished. 

The producer tweeted saying “Just wait for the real one… you won’t be disappointed. That had nothing to do with me or Zayn, something was stolen from the hard drive that had nothing to do with the rapper involved.”

As the La La La producer has already been involved in a heated Twitter feud with Louis Tomlinson, it looks as if Zayn could be playing it safe by jumping to 50 Cent’s label and avoiding any further controversy.

Rumours about what the former One Direction star is going to do next have been circulating like wildfire ever since his departure from the band.

But now, fans may be able to get excited because it looks as if his next venture could be into fashion.

A source close to the 22-year-old told The Sun that “Zayn has always been very creative and introverted.”

“He tried out various looks and styles during his time in One Direction, which led to interest from top fashion houses,” the source continued.

However, 1D fans who were left devastated by Zayn’s parting from the band can take some comfort in the fact that Zayn has no intention to leave his music career behind.

According the source. Perrie Edwards’ fiancé will always have music as his first priority. But they believe that fashion could be a big move for the singer too.

“The long term aim could be to potentially earn a big-money endorsement deal with a huge fashion brand,” the source explained.

We’re so excited to see what a Zayn clothing line could look like… once he’s wearing it on stage that is!

One Direction have been giving away free tickets for their US tour.

While this is no doubt music to boatloads of fans ears, the surprising giveaway is apparently because of a serious slump in ticket sales.

The boy’s On The Road Again tour puts the now-foursome performing in stadiums instead of arenas which is really putting the pressure on to fill the seats.

It is thought that Zayn’s recent departure from the band is the reason behind their sudden decline in fame.

According to the Daily Star, when fans are purchasing their tickets Stateside, they are given the option to get two free tickets for every pair of tickets bought.

 A 50 percent sale to see 1D? Don’t mind if we do!

However, a spokesperson for the band denied rumours that their fame is ‘fading,’ insisting that it is simply a discount for fans.

“This promotion was part of the Honda tour sponsorship deal. All artists offer ticket promotions for fans, so there is no story here.”

As devastated as we were when Zayn left, if it means we get free tickets we may just get on board!

The Teen Choice 2015 nominations were announced today… and attracting the most attention was certainly the Fashion Choice Male Hottie category. 

The reason?

Zayn Malik AND the rest of his former bandmates are simultaneously up for the accolade. 

And there will be only one winner when the glitzy bash takes place on August 16.

Up for the same gong is Justin Bieber and Aussie band 5 Seconds Of Summer.

Still, at least One Direction also picked up nominations for the likes of Best Male Group and Group Song

The Teen Choice Awards are entirely dictated by the fans' votes – so it will be particularly interesting to see where their allegiances lie in the aftermath of Zayn's shock exit from the mega-selling group. 

Tens of millions of votes are cast annually, and millions tune into the show itself, which this year takes place in Los Angeles.

Last year, the awards were hosted by Teen Wolf star Tyler Posy, and Modern Family's Sarah Hyland. Performers on the day included Jason Derulo, Demi Lovato, Cher Llyod, and Rita Ora.

Last night marked One Direction’s first concert performance as a four-piece, but it’s safe to say that Zayn Malik’s presence was felt both on stage and throughout Cardiff’s Millenium Stadium – and not exactly in a good way.

Fans of the boy band were left devastated earlier this year when Zayn announced his decision to quit, and since details of his solo plans were revealed, he has faced a wave of backlash.

The aggro towards the 22-year-old appeared to reach fever pitch last night however, when concert-goers in Cardiff erupted in a chorus of boos when his image was flashed up on the screen.

Whether the lads had intended to pay tribute to Zayn, or it was just a serious oversight on the part of their managers, the decision to feature Zayn in an opening montage seems to have gone down like a lead balloon among fans.

Zayn can take some comfort in the fact that a number of fans were horrified by the booing however, with some taking to Twitter to send him messages of support.

“Do not think about the people who booed you. Just saw your picture on the screen, you’ll always be my idol, I love you. I miss you, goodnight @zaynmalik,” wrote one devoted fan.

With rumours this weekend that Zayn is turning his attention to the theatre industry, let’s hope that the crowds will be a bit more forgiving!

Zayn Malik might be doing his best to make things up to his fiancée Perrie Edwards after a rocky start to the year, but it looks like someone's just put a spanner in the works.

Back in March, Zayn abruptly quit One Direction just days after a photo of him with his arms around another woman, a fan named Lauren Richardson, emerged online.

The picture was taken in Thailand during the Asian leg of One Direction's On The Run tour, and when another photo appeared online of Zayn holding hands with the same woman, speculation began mounting that he had cheated on his girlfriend of four years, Little Mix singer Perrie.

Last week we reported that Lauren was getting ready to tell her side of the story as part of reality TV show Love Island, and now that promotion for the show's new series has begun, there's no escaping the fact that the blonde fan is about to dish the dirt. 

Last night ITV released the first official photo of Lauren as a Love Island contestant, and revealed that she is ready to set the record straight on the "long story" behind the photos of herself and Zayn.

Describing herself as a "down to earth girl," Lauren teased her appearance on the show by saying, "I met Zayn in a nightclub in Thailand. It all got blown out of proportion. But that's a long story."

The new series kicks off on Sunday, and will see six single girls and six single guys being flown to a luxury villa in Mallorca to see if they can find love. Other contestants include former Miss England Rachel Christie, Page Three model Jessica Hayes, and former pro footballer Luis Morrison.

During the show, Lauren is expected to take part in an in-depth interview with host Caroline Flack, during which she will no doubt reveal the truth behind what happened with Zayn.

For Zayn's sake, and for Perrie's, we hope she has nothing too scandalous to share.

It's been over two months since Zayn Malik shocked fans all over the world by quitting One Direction for good in the middle of their world tour.

The singer, who was an unknown before competing in the 2010 series of The X Factor when One Direction first began, said he wanted to be able to live a "normal" life again.

Over the last 24 hours though, fans have been sent into overdrive on Twitter with the rumour that Zayn might be returning to 1D.

The speculation started when hundred of Twitter users in Brazil started tweeting with the hashtag #WelcomeBackTo1DZayn. The hashtag soon started trending worldwide as other fans picked up on the rumour.

Unfortunately, there seems to be no truth in the news, as the hashtag was later revealed to have been started by one over-zealous fan who was watching a One Direction documentary segment on popular Brazilian TV show Multishow.

One user later tweeted in Portuguese that the news was indeed a hoax, but by that stage the story had already gone viral:

This Friday marks One Direction's first show on this side of the world as a foursome, as they take to Cardiff's Millennium Stadium for two nights on June 5th and 6th. The lads will also play Dublin for three nights in October.

Much as we would love to see all five 1Ders back on stage together, for now it seems it's just a pipe dream.

Uh-oh… we reckon 22-year-old Zayn Malik needs to get his story straight right about now, because Lauren Richardson is going down the reality TV route.

She is the same woman the former One Directioner was photographed holding hands with and snuggling up to at a party in Thailand back in March.

Is was widely reported that the incident – not to mention the huge amount of coverage it received – prompted Zayn to walk away from the mega-selling band, although he's always denied that anything untoward happened.

And now it has been revealed that Love Island, which returns to screens on Sunday, June 7, will feature 19-year-old Lauren; and she’s reportedly keen as mustard to give her side of story.

“Lauren sees Love Island as a great opportunity for people to see the real her.

“She has kept a low-profile since the stories ran about her and Zayn, and there are a lot of untruths that she wants corrected,” an insider told The Mirror today.

“[Lauren] never asked for the attention but now wants something positive to come from the situation,” the insider continues.

“She is looking forward to getting to Majorca and, hopefully, finding love in the process.”

Lauren was previously linked to the current series of Big Brother, but it seems her place on Love Island is confirmed.

Zayn has been dating Little Mix’s Perrie Edwards, 21, for three-and-a-half years. They announced their engagement in August 2013.

However, the relationship has been rocked by accusations that Zayn has on occasion been unfaithful, and Perrie has lately been spotted not wearing her engagement ring.

During a radio interview more than a week ago she reassured fans the jewellery was merely been cleaned – but on Wednesday at the BBC studios, the item was once again absent. 

With Caroline Flack at the helm, Love Island returns to ITV2 on Sunday, June 7.

It has been a crazy few months for Zayn Malik; first, leaving One Direction, then facing backlash from fans and a former band mate. We are not surprised to learn then, that Zayn’s family are concerned for his wellbeing.

As producer Naughty Boy’s tweets and Instagram photos have shown, Zayn has been hitting the studio to record some solo and collaborative material, but if reports are anything to go by, the 22-year-old is putting himself under a lot of pressure.

Sources have this weekend revealed that Zayn’s hectic and ‘incessant’ schedule has proven a major cause for concern by his loved ones, who are worried that he may be pushing himself too far under the media scrutiny.

A source told HollywoodLife.com: “Since leaving One Direction, Zayn has been working incessantly on his solo career, holing up in a West London studio for hours upon end. You have to admire his drive and determination with his efforts to go it alone, and any minute he has spare he’s there.”

“His family and friends are a little concerned that he’s pushing himself too hard. After all, his stress was work-related, and he was advised to take a much longer break,” they added.

These comments come just days after Zayn’s former band mate Liam Payne admitted that Zayn quit the band to focus on his relationship with Little Mix star Perrie Edwards.

Let’s hope that Zayn is looking after himself.

Naughty Boy has shared the news that Zayn Malik will appear on his next album.

Speaking at the 60th Anniversary Ivor Novello awards the producer said: "Zayn is on the new album. He's got an amazing voice. He has not fully showcased what he's capable of.

"I've got him on my album but that's a Naughty Boy track. That'll give a taste."

"Our track is going to be ready in a couple of months … You are going to be shocked by what he comes out with, I feel that the last five years have the most important for him but I feel he has a future beyond that," he said.

He also teased that it could be released as a single.

The heartthrob left One Direction in March claiming he wanted a normal life.

He is engaged to Perrie Edwards and has been spending a lot of time with his new best friend Naughty Boy. 

Aaaaand now we wait for a reaction from Louis…

Uh-oh… Perrie has been spotted without her engagement ring again.

The Little Mix singer was with her bandmates in London earlier today for an in-studio chat with Capital FM’s Lisa Snowdon and Dave Berry.

As always, the 21-year-old looked laid-back and gorgeous – but notably absent from her left hand was the diamond trilogy that Zayn Malik gifted to her when he popped the question in August 2013.

However, she was quick to reassure fans that all is well in the Malik-Edwards household. “It’s getting cleaned,” she stated on-air.

“I feel naked, it’s horrible,” the singer added.

It's not the first time she's been spotted with a conspicuously bare ring-finger. Back in March friends were forced to dismiss any suggestion of a marital rift when she was seen out and about without it: they also stated then that the item was simply being cleaned.

Only this week, and also on Capital FM, former bandmate Liam Payne confirmed that Perrie was a big factor in Zayn’s decision to quit One Direction. “He wanted to spend time with his family and his missus. That’s cool with us,” Liam said.

Still, the last year has certainly been tough on the young couple. Zayn weathered further cheating claims, and then spectacularly quit the mega-selling boyband that had made him globally-famous.

While Little Mix promote their new single, Black Magic, Zayn is currently recording solo material with Naughty Boy.
