We wonder how he felt having all eyes on him?
Zayn Malik performed his new single "It's You" on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon last night, and it's the first time he's hit the stage live since splitting with One Direction last year. The tune is about his ex-fiancee Perrie Edwards, and we're dying to know how his current girlfriend Gigi Hadid feels about hearing her man croon over someone else.
The British heartthrob must be on a pretty big high lately! His song "Pillow Talk" is burning up the charts, he's got a Sports Illustrated model for a significant other, and he seems to be doing just fine without the boy band that rocketed him into super stardom.

Gigi Hadid and Chrissy Teigen are just a few of the models who have dared to bare their bods for Sports Illustrated's Swimsuit Issue. And hot damn do they look good!
In some behind-the-scenes footage of the shoot, the 20-year-old shows how she is modeling a plethora of skimpy bathing suits for noted photographer Yu Tsai on the island of Tahiti.
Gigi said, "When I got the call this year that I was shooting with Yu Tsai, in Tahiti, it was just perfect, there was nothing else I could ask for."
Another notable name in the mag is Chrissy Teigen, who admitted she was doing IVF treatments while shooting off of West Africa.
Chrissy told People of the sexy shoot, "I was doing IVF during the shoot. I was getting my shots and everything in Zanzibar, I had a little medical kit."
Last night, Gigi, Chrissy and more of the gorgeous gals rocked some sexy ensembles last night for the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit 2016 BBQ.
Gigi donned an adorable Herve Leger minidress and suede thigh-high boots for the bash. Lily Aldridge wore a silky smooth white number. Chrissy, who is now preggers, showed off her baby bump with a lace-up Balmain dress.

Don't be so hard on yourself, girl!
Adele appeared on Ellen following her disastrous Grammys performance, and the singer admitted that she cried the whole next day after the award show.
"I cried pretty much all day yesterday. In fairness I would have cried if it went really well as well. If it was a stand out performance I would have cried as well. I always cry. But yeah. I kept like spontaneously bursting into tears yesterday. But it was alright. I was fine," she confessed to the talk show host.
The "Hello" songstress also went into detail about what went wrong during her set, insisting that Justin Bieber didn't have anything to do with it contrary to reports.
"Sound check was great. Went really well. I was really excited, and then during the changeover. The microphones fell onto the piano strings which is what the guitar noise was. Some people thought it was Bieber rehearsing, but it wasn’t him. We’re on great terms. And then it kind of put the whole thing off really," she explained.
"I heard it straight away. And I wanted to turn, I knew what it was because in rehearsal on Saturday they were like we’re going to double mic the piano just in case one doesn’t work. And I knew where the mic was and I wanted to turn around and lift it up, but I froze. But I actually felt like it went well. In the room they actually sorted the problem and I’m always a bit pitchy anyways so I wasn’t particularly.. I am! It’s emotion. It’s emotion. When I’m flat and I’m sharp I’m just emotional but it was fine. I wanted to tell everyone straight away because it seemed to be a lot of confusion about what it was. I was embarrassed. I woke up the next morning to people in England being like. We still love you, don’t worry and I was like, I didn’t ask you if you still loved me, but thanks. I was so embarrassed," she added.
She could always call Mariah Carey or Ashlee Simpson for advice on coping with a dud performance!

She's extending the olive branch in the most Kardashian way ever!
Kylie Jenner landed back in LA last night after her trip to NYC, and the reality star was clad in Adidas, which is an interesting move considering she just inked a deal with Puma. We think she's trying to play nice with her brother-in-law Kanye West, who went off a Twitter rant when he learned the teen mogul was signing up to endorse a rival brand.
Unless you've been living under a rock, you know that the rapper has a lucrative deal with Adidas, and he was none too pleased when news broke that his in-law went behind his back.
"1000% there will never be a Kylie Puma anything. That's on my family! 1000% Kylie is on Yeezy team!!! Puma we gone give you your measly million dollars back!!! Never try to divide the family!!!" he wrote on Twitter.
Ye might be able to control Kimmy K, but Ky beats to her own drum!

You can't make this stuff up.
Kanye West threw a hissy fit backstage at Saturday Night Live over the weekend, and some brilliant snitch recorded the rapper's meltdown and released it on the internet. Apparently changes were made to Kanye's set design, which caused him say, "Look at that s--t, they took my f--kin' stage off SNL without asking me. Now I'm bummed. That and Taylor Swift. Fake ass. Now we're gonna do this. We're breaking the motherf--king Internet."
While Page Six reported that Kanye referred to NBC staffers as "white motherf--kers," another source told Us Weekly, "He did not yell at SNL staff," noting that he was just "venting his frustration" about the "dramatic" changes to his stage design. "He had spent an entire day rehearsing and put a lot of hard work into the performance . . . It should be understandable why he was upset after being completely blindsided." Sure, but he doesn't need to be such a whiny little b*tch about it!
When he's not throwing tantrums backstage or on Twitter, what else has Kanye been up to? According to E! News, the rapper has named daughter North West, 2, and son Saint West, 2 months, as "creative consultants" on his new album, The Life of Pablo. But of course...

Ben Affleck and estranged wife Jennifer Garner may be enjoying a ski vacation in Montana right now, but don't assume they're getting back together. According to reports, they're not.
Ben and Jen are with their children at the Yellowstone Club in Big Sky, and the group is also joined by football star Tom Brady and wife Gisele Bundchen, who also brought their kids, according to Page Six.
“They had some serious après-ski and shut the bar down. They started drinking bloody marys, then beer and bourbons. They kept the bar open late for them. They all ate nachos, even Gisele,†a source told Page Six. “There were no nannies in sight, but Jen doesn’t look like she is harboring any resentment. Jen and Ben weren’t lovey-dovey at all, but were super-friendly and happy, relaxed. They were both attentive to their kids and laughing with Tom and Gisele. â€
HOWEVER, another source told the mag, “They are not back together — they have just found a new normal where they get along and work together for the sake of the kids.†People claims that their divorce will be finalized in March. "They're not [best] friends, but they share in the joy of their children," a source told the mag.
