Zayn Malik recently sat down for an interview with Elle UK, where he talked about leaving One Direction. Here's what he had to say:
On his decision to leave One Direction: 'At that time in my life I felt I had done everything I could do there and I just needed to change it up. It didn't feel brave. I just don't have it in me to feel fully secure in anything I do. I always strive towards something better. It's why I think sometimes I come across the wrong way, a bit distant. I'm just stressed out trying to control how I'm perceived. I think about things a lot.'
On the negatives of social media: 'As much as social networking is a big thing now, there's something to be said about having something real, if I had a choice I would take the camera off everyone's iPhone and make sure we didn't have Twitter or Facebook. It affects art form. There's something to be said about living in the moment. I try to keep my phone for calls.'
On his relationship with model Gigi Hadid: 'She's super intelligent, I think that's why it works so well. And we do the same type of job so we get that with each other.'
On his solo career and love of music:'My entire life has changed in the last year. I'm still taking it all in. I've found so much out about myself. Mostly how in love with music I still was. The album is a build up of six years and never being able to express what I wanted to say. I had something to get off my chest.'
