Not Available Lead

Yup, it happened, we have real and actual Twitter beef between former One Direction member Zayn Malik and current member Louis Tomlinson. Who knows what deeper issues lead to the Twitter exchange, but boy did things escalate quickly between them. It appears that Tomlinson started the drama today with a subtweet towards Zayn and filters he used for pictures back in the day, which lead Zayn to promptly clap back and make it a full blown lituation.

Zayn originally left the band in March for what he said was to finally get to enjoy his private life, but he has also been working on some solo music, which is reportedly inspired by Drake. Nothing like some good ol' boy band drama.
