Zayn Malik Talks About Sex in First Autobiography Excerpt

Zayn Malik has officially shared the first excerpt from his new book!

The 23-year-old former One Direction singer gave his first words of the autobiography, titled Zayn, to NME magazine.

“Every lyric I’ve ever written has a story behind it. All the hard work that went into the creation of ‘Pillowtalk’ was worthwhile because, as soon as it was finished, I intuitively felt I was on the right path,” Zayn wrote. “It was a sick cut, nailing the exact sound I wanted to capture in my music. I was also able to sing about a subject that I hadn’t really been able to go near while I was in One Direction: sex.”

Zayn drops on November 1.
