"On stage, Harry was right next to a pyro, and the pyro was about to go off because they were on timers,” Zayn recalled. “And he had a towel over his head and he had his head over the pyro and he didn't see that the pyro was there. So you see me like run from one side of the stage and just push him out the way. And the pyro kind of explodes in front of his face. That was real dangerous."

He joked that it “makes me look great.” Luckily he was there to save the day and everything worked out alright!

Zayn also teased some information about his forthcoming album Room Under the Stairs.

“The new album is a very different sound to anything that I’ve ever put out before. It’s jut really raw and honest,” he said. “I hope people get that when they listen to it. I hope they get some insight into how I’m feeling and the things I’ve been going through over the last six, seven years while I’ve been writing this record. That’s the most important thing for me.”
