Hours after Zayn wiped off his social media accounts leaving them blank, he dropped in the news of his signing up with Mercury Records and dropped in a new teaser that shows him on a motorcycle, wearing a helmet and revving up the machine.

The video, on Instagram, has racked up more than 2.9 million likes and fans are writing up a frenzy of comments, showing him how excited they are for the new music. Zayn also delighted fans by joining TikTok and instantly received a lot of love from fans on the short video-making platform.

The one thing fans kept wondering about was why Malik, rumored to be dating Selena Gomez, had unfollowed her on social media. What's even more interesting is that even Gomez has gone ahead and unfollowed him as well as his baby mama, Gigi Hadid.

Just before he wiped everything out, Zayn Malik, who often goes by only his first name, ZAYN, treated his fans to a shirtless thirst trap, with a classic bodybuilding pose. He had a cigarette in his mouth and wore a couple of chains around his neck, along with a watch and a bracelet. The singer sported a lean body, having bulked up a little from before but still retaining his youthful silhouette.

Fans noticed one eagle-eyed detail, "the eyes are gone!"

Zayn had famously tattooed Gigi Hadid's eyes on his chest, just below his heart but now that the two are no longer a couple, the eyes are gone with the singer having inked in the eyes with more details. The two co-parent their daughter Khai together.
