Naughty Boy Confirms That He And Zayn Malik Fell Out Over More Than Just A Leaked Video

Curiouser and curiouser...

Remember that time Naughty Boy and Zayn Malik went from BFFs to mortal enemies in less than 60 seconds?

Well it turns out their break-up didn't really have anything to do with the leaking of a certain video, and was actually down to something else entirely.

Chatting to The Guardian, Naughty Boy explained: "I didn't leak it. Krept, who is on the tune with Zayn, Snapchatted it. No one put it on YouTube or nothing. I genuinely didn't leak the video."

"To be honest, it was a bit late to leak the video, the song was old by then, y'know?"

He continues: "That wasn't ... that wasn't ... that was just him throwing his toys out of the pram. We fell out over something else."

"Yeah, something else."

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN, THOUGH?

At least we know now that their friendship was the real deal.

"Our friendship was genuine, 100%. But then you have other relationships with lawyers and labels etc. I don't think we actually fell out over the lack of friendship or trust, I think it was external influences," he explained.

So Liam Payne has revealed that One Direction's music was 'never Zayn Malik's sort of music', and the world is kind of upset about it.

But looking back, we probably should have realised that Zayn was 100% done with 1D from the word 'go', at least judging by these pretty obvious signs...

1. Before he even got to *be* in One Direction, Zayn had to change the way he spelled his name. Think of all the paperwork.

2. Remember when he didn't want to dance at X Factor bootcamp?

3. Yeah, that was probably quite a good warning sign.

4. But nobody listened, did they? Here he is, dancing away in a music video, literal years later. Poor lad.

5. And speaking of music videos, Zayn did get himself into some slightly ridiculous situations…

6. We don't reckon he signed up to be sexually harassed by Harry Styles (but we'll happily volunteer as tribute).

7. How do you think Zayn felt after getting spag bol all over his fancy suit and hair?

8. Let's go ahead and say 'not good'.

9. Seriously, was there ever a One Direction music video where Zayn wasn't slightly scared for his life?

11 of 23
10. No, we don't reckon so. (Still, this GIF is so fantastic that we don't even care).

11. Making fun of Zayn's inability to swim? Unforgivable, even with the glorious shirtless-ness.

12. Honestly, we're surprised Zayn hasn't sued.

13. Clearly, the lad was bored of always having to pretend he wasn't the most beautiful creature to ever walk the earth.

14. And he was probably getting a bit fed up of Niall always nicking his style.

15. The Bradford Bad Boy was never one for hiding his emotions really...

16. And the differences between him and the other band members got a little bit easier to spot.

17. You know when Zayn would finish slaying a solo, and then kind of look like a sad puppy? We always just assumed he was being all mysterious.

18. Was this the exact moment he realised things had gotten a little out of control?

20 of 23
19. You know what, it might have been this bit of *live television* that had him scanning some job sites.

21 of 23
20. Or maybe it was this other very live bit of telly that had him thinking, 'what have I become?'

22 of 23
21. But hey, we're actually pretty sure he loved every minute of it - even if he doesn't want to admit it.
