Noel Gallagher lashes out at Zayn Malik for leaving One Direction

Oasis star Noel Gallagher express his anger at former One Direction star Zayn Malik for quitting the boy band, labelling him a "f***ing idiot."

In the explosive interview, he spoke about hearing of the Bradford-born singer's departure from the band, Noel said: “The greatest quote was – I laughed out loud when I read it – ‘I just want to be a normal 22-year-old.’

"Pfft. Who wants to be a normal 22-year-old?! Hang on a minute. You can be f**king anything that moves and gettin' paid half a million dollars a week, you f**kin' idiot.

"You want to be a normal 22-year-old? Have you met any normal 22-year-olds? They're f**kin' shit-for-brains.

“What are you talking about, you f**kin' idiot? God. All those young Japanese girls s**kin' me c**k. [Sarcastically] So shallow and meaningless.

"I'll say this to you, Zayn: You might have wanted to be a normal 22-year-old, but you won't want to be a normal 25-year-old [laughs].”

Noel then went on to tell Zayn to: "F**kin' get a good accountant because life is very f**kin' long.”

Zayn is yet to respond to the rocker's attack.
