It appears that Zayn Malik was involved in an altercation that nearly ended in a physical fight outside a New York City bar on Thursday.
The 28-year-old former One Direction member, standing shirtless and smoking a cigarette, was apparently filmed by viewers, in footage obtained by TMZ, engaging in a shouting match with a man who reportedly left the Little Sister Lounge located next door.
While it’s unclear why Malik removed his shirt, sources familiar with the situation told TMZ on Friday that the “Pillowtalk” singer was wearing it before leaving the Amsterdam Billiards Club.
A representative for Malik did not respond to Fox News’ request for comment.
