​“Exhausted” Zayn Malik of One Direction won’t perform in Jakarta, fans devastated

Take Zayn Malik out of this picture

It’s hardly the end of the world, but for One Direction fans in Jakarta there’s probably nothing closer to it: Zayn Malik has officially pulled out of the boy band’s current world tour, meaning he won’t perform with the others in Manila and Jakarta.

According to a ‘source’ who spoke to People.com, Zayn Malik is taking a break from the tour and has returned to the UK because of stress. Apparently he was photographed with his arm around some girl, which caused fractures in his relationship with his fiancée (or something silly like that).

“Zayn is exhausted and just needs a break. Out of every one of the boys, he’s the one who struggles dealing with being in the spotlight the most. He can’t cope with the level of scrutiny he gets put under. He’s just 22,” the source said.

“It all stems from photos that hit yesterday of him with a fan which caused huge problems with his girlfriend, Perrie. The media accused him of cheating and he exploded over it. He’s had enough of the constant craziness.”

How are One Direction’s Indonesian fans taking this? Not very well, it seems:

 

 

There, there. You’ll all grow out of One Direction eventually, like we grew out of the Backstreet Boys and *NSync.

One Direction is performing live in concert at the Gelora Bung Karno Stadium in Senayan, South Jakarta, on March 25.
