Zayn Malik Covers NME Magazine

Zan Malik is on the cover of the most recent issue of NME magazine. Zayn is on the cover to promote his new album, Mind Of Mine. Highlights are below.

On leaving One Direction: “I called my security and I was like, ‘I need to sort out a plane. I want to go home.’ I don’t know how I knew, but I just did. So I chatted with my cousin. Listened to a few songs. Just waited for my plane to come.”

On remaining close with Liam Payne: “I’m still probably the closest to Liam. We talk on the phone. He congratulated me on my single, which was nice. I congratulated him on his Brit Award [the group collected the British Video Award for ‘Drag Me Down’]. It was a good chat. We haven’t met up in a long time so we want to meet up.”
