The saying “don’t kiss and tell” applies pretty accurately for former One Direction singer-turned-solo-artist Zayn Malik and his supermodel girlfriend Gigi Hadid. Zayn may be open to singing about sex, but he won’t exactly give any more details when he isn’t behind the microphone. Zayn just launched a collaboration song with Taylor Swift for Fifty Shades Darker and during an interview on Sirius XM discussed whether or not he and Gigi channel their inner Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele, according to Elle.
The radio hosts for Sirius show The Morning Mash Up hounded Zayn about sex and his relationship with Hadid. After saying he had never seen Fifty Shades of Grey, one DJ suggested that Zayn’s “lived the movie.” The singer laughed it off and mumbled, “I like that.” After that, he kept mum about his sex life. Whether or not he keeps it PG is his business only.
While one DJ expressed ardent enthusiasm for the Fifty Shades series, another DJ couldn’t stop asking Zayn about Hadid and how they became a couple. He mentioned how Hadid was “more beautiful in person” and asked Zayn, “For all the guys out there, how did you land her?” Zayn, who didn’t have some secret formula for “landing” Hadid like she was a plane, explained how went about courting Hadid in a relatively traditional way. “I just asked her, it was pretty straight up, I just asked her if she wanted to go on a date,” he explained. “A gentleman never tells the full details, but we met, and we spoke and we went on a date.”
