Zayn Malik Opens Up About Racism on Upcoming 'Fuchsia Sea' Remix
Zayn Malik is back with another banger, and he's seemingly opening up about his One Direction-era fame in its lyrics. The singer-songwriter is dropping a remix of his Room Under the Stairs track, 'Fuchsia Sea,' featuring a new rap verse. He teased the new lyrics on his Instagram Stories, where he discusses his journey with finding fame at a young age and facing racism from the public while he was 'in a white band' with Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson, Niall Horan, and Liam Payne. 'Got my back against the wall so much they think I got a brick fascination / Do you remember every conversation? 'Cause I have been conscious of every connotation,' he muses on the snippet he shared on social media. He continued, 'And while they concentrate on their elevation, I've got a round trip to the constellation / I'm a convert to the concert, and I did that for inflation, 'cause I worked hard in a white band, and they still laughed at the Asian.' The track, which was first featured on his 2024 album Room Under the Stairs, outlined his resilience following personal struggles. His new lyrics seem to be an extension of the emotions that drove the original version. This marks Zayn's first musical release since he toured his album earlier this year. On the tour's opening night in Mexico City, he sang 1D's ballad 'Night Changes' as a tribute to the late Liam Payne. It also happened to be the 10th anniversary of Zayn's departure from the band. 'It's the first time I've sung that song in 10 years. Thank you, that was fucking amazing. I almost cried,' he said following the emotional performance, per fan-captured footage. In 2015, the singer exited 1D to pursue some 'private time out of the spotlight'—but he ended up releasing his debut solo album, Mind of Mine, later that year. 'My life with One Direction has been more than I could ever have imagined. But, after five years, I feel like it is now the right time for me to leave the band. I'd like to apologise to the fans if I've let anyone down, but I have to do what feels right in my heart,' he wrote in a statement on the band's Facebook page at the time. He added, 'I am leaving because I want to be a normal 22-year-old who is able to relax and have some private time out of the spotlight. I know I have four friends for life in Louis, Liam, Harry, and Niall. I know they will continue to be the best band in the world.'

Malik has showcased his cooking chops over the years on social media and previously revealed his go-to dish on an episode of Hot Ones. "Signature dish... I guess that's the thing I cook the most, so I actually cook this thing called tandoori chicken quite a lot," he told host Sean Evans. "If I was to make a meal, probably spaghetti bolognese: spaghetti, minced meat... tomato, garlic. "You can use carrots sometimes... and I'm getting pretty good at sneaking vegetables in there for my daughter," he added of Khai, his 4-year-old child with ex Gigi Hadid. As he released his latest album, Room Under the Stairs, last year, Malik opened up about drawing from his low-key life in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. "I was pretty much on my farm having a glass of whiskey and listening to a bit of [Chris] Stapleton by the fire with my dog, playing guitar," he told Nylon of writing the body of work.

Zayn Malik spotted enjoying a cigarette after NYC concert on rare public outing
Zayn Malik was spotted enjoying a rare moment of relaxation after his concert in New York City, puffing on a cigarette following the second of his two shows at Manhattan's Hammerstein Ballroom. The 32-year-old former One Direction star, who is currently on his first-ever solo tour, 'Stairway to the Sky', wore a red plaid shirt and tan pants as he exited an SUV post-performance. The tour, which supports his latest album 'Room Under the Stairs', has been a poignant journey for Zayn, especially following the tragic death of his One Direction bandmate Liam Payne. During each show, Zayn pays tribute to Payne by performing his song Stardust, whose lyrics, "Feels like stardust / Fallin' all around us / Funny how it found us," resonate deeply with fans. Zayn's tour has also gained attention for its all-female backing band, which has become a viral sensation on social media. The band, consisting of guitarist Molly Miller, drummer Baby Bulldog, singers Lisa Ramey, Tahira Clayton, and Rebecca Haviland, keyboard player Tina Hizon, and bassist Ryan Madora, has been praised for its talent and empowering presence. Lisa Ramey recently shared a photo of the group on Instagram, captioning it, "The ladies say hello." Fans have flooded social media with admiration for Zayn's decision to feature an all-women band, with one fan writing, "Zayn's all girl band is the hottest thing he could've done." Another added, "Zayn growing up surrounded by women and then later assembling a band that is predominantly female just makes me smile he really is for women by women." The tour hasn't been without its challenges, however. Zayn recently canceled a show in Newcastle due to vocal issues, issuing a heartfelt apology to fans: "I'm just going to apologise to everybody in Newcastle yesterday. I'm sorry I didn't make the show yesterday, my voice wasn't working at all." Despite the setback, Zayn's tour continues to captivate audiences, blending heartfelt tributes, musical talent, and a celebration of female empowerment. As he navigates his solo career, Zayn remains a beloved figure in the music world, with fans eagerly following his every move.
