One Direction Gets Awkward Talking About Zayn Malik

U.K. Boy band sensation One Direction was on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, and members addressed an uncomfortable subject: the departure of bandmate Zayn Malik. Back in March, Malik left the group amid its On the Road Again Tour citing stress and a lack of personal growth. While there was initial bad blood, and several twitter squabbles, the group insists now that everything is cool with Malik. Although that wasn’t apparent by the reaction to DeGeneres’s question as to whether band members had spoken with Malik. Harry Styles began to laugh uncomfortably, and when asked by DeGeneres if they were lying, replied: “You could cut the tension in here with a knife, Let’s make some jokes!”

During a revealing game of Never Have I Ever, Styles still seemed to feel out of place. After DeGeneres posed the question “Never have I ever made out with someone twice my age” Styles brooded before replying, “I’m not having fun.”
