Former One Direction member Zayn opened up about his life and career in a rare interview.
The singer and former One Direction member appeared on the video podcast “Call Her Daddy,” where he talked about everything from being a member of the hugely successful boy band to co-parenting with model Gigi Hadid. The interview – his first in nearly six years – was conducted in host Alex Cooper’s childhood home in Pennsylvania. Zayn lives in the state now, too, prompting Cooper to ask, “Why Pennsylvania?” “A lot of people ask me that.
And I want her to be able to look at me and be like, ‘My dad’s doing this.’” Becoming super famous, along with his friends Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Liam Payne and Louis Tomlinson as part of One Direction, did not help his anxiety. He was the first to leave the group in 2015 and said that was intentional. “I completely selfishly wanted to be the first person to make their own record,” Zayn explained. “I was like, ‘I’m going to jump the gun here for the first time,’” he said.
