Zayn Malik still dealing with anxiety issues

British singer Zayn Malik (right) has cancelled more gigs, as his anxiety issues are preventing him from performing on stage alone. He had pulled out of the Summertime Ball [A gig which is held in London] last year, revealing his absence was due to anxiety.

The former One Direction star has also called off some gigs in Japan, after initially rescheduling them. A variety of reasons have been given, including that there was “a change in the recording schedule” and that Malik is too busy “planning his debut world tour” according to The Sun.

Malik released his own original material shortly after quitting the band in 2015, and came out with his own single Pillowtalk which became famous. “If he never performs, there’s a danger that his solo career will flop,” a source says.
