We can't wait to see the direction he goes in - pun intended! - with his new tunes!

Zayn Malik sent the Internet into a frenzy yesterday by announcing his new single "Pillow Talk" would be dropping this coming Friday, and he made sure to get the maximum publicity by releasing a shirtless photo that appears be the cover art of the track. He's sexy, and we're not ashamed to say it!

"I think I’m pretty black and white about what it’s about. Everybody has sex, and it’s something people want hear about. It’s part of everybody’s life, a very BIG part of life! And you don’t want to sweep it under the carpet. It has to be talked about," he told The Sunday Times about his racy lyrics.

Gigi Hadid is one lucky lady!
