Zayn Malik Poses for Billboard Cover Photo Shoot
Wearing a shearling and leather jacket, Zayn Malik is ready for his close-up as he covers the January 16, 2016 issue of Billboard magazine. Revealing his current relationships with his One Direction bandmates after leaving the group, Malik shares, “The truth of it is you can think one thing about a situation and the total opposite can happen. I had every intention of remaining friends with everybody, but I guess certain phone numbers have changed and I haven’t received calls from a lot of people. I’ve reached out to a few of them and not got a reply. Certain people have pride issues, but it’s stuff you overcome in time.”
