Zayn Malik Is Nearly Unrecognizable With Full Beard, Fans Are Thirsting Over His New Look
Zayn Malik's seemingly relaxed Sunday afternoon has whipped fans into a tizzy — and, honestly, we can't say we blame them. Malik, 32, uploaded a selfie of himself to Instagram on Sunday, May 25, in which he wore a white tank top, a tangle of gold necklaces and a black baseball cap that read, 'HBO Original The Last of Us.' He also had a thick, bushy beard that has Us doing a double take. While Malik has sported stubble through the years, he had recently been clean-shaven for the duration of his recent Stairway to the Sky Tour earlier in 2025. It's safe to say that Malik's full beard has his fans thirsting over his physique. Zayn Malik's Grown-Out Beard Has Us Doing a Double Take Over His New Look 'Zayn Javadd [sic] Malik, the man that you are,' one social media user commented, as another wrote, 'Well hello handsome, I hope you're doing well.' A third replied, 'Farmer Zayn, I love you 😍.' Malik, who hails from England, primarily resides on a farm in Pennsylvania with 4-year-old daughter Khai. (The One Direction alum coparents his only child with ex Gigi Hadid.) Zayn Malik Through the Years: From One Direction Member to Solo Hitmaker 'I ended up coming out here with my ex a bit, and I fell in love with it,' Malik recalled of his farm during a 2023 appearance on the 'Call Her Daddy' podcast. 'It was just super calm and chill. … I just wanted to take a break from the busy city 'cause I was living in New York for three years at a time, and it just got a bit overwhelming, like, going out of your door to just craziness all the time. I wanted a bit more of a surrounding that I'm used to where I grew up in Bradford.' Malik's life out of the limelight also gave him time to grow out his facial hair. 'There were certain restrictions in terms of the way that we could come outside of that young teen boy look. … I wasn't allowed to keep it,' he claimed to Complex in 2016, referring to his time in One Direction. 'Eventually, when I got older, I rebelled against it and decided to keep it anyway. That was just because I looked older than the rest of them.' He added, 'That's one of the things that is now quite cool. I get to keep my beard. I also wanted to dye my hair when I was in the band, but I wasn't allowed to.' Malik left the British boy band in 2017, going on to become a solo artist.

Shocking moment man is mauled by a TIGER after trying to take a selfie with it
This is the shocking moment a man is mauled by a huge tiger after trying to take a selfie with it in Thailand. Alarming video footage shows the excited tourist crouching beside the animal and putting his arm around its back before it pounces on him. The man is knocked onto the ground and can be heard screaming in terror as the tiger's handler desperately tries to wrestle it from on top of him. The trainer tussles with the powerful predator for a few heart-stopping seconds before he's able to subdue it. Earlier in the clip, the tourist could be seen confidently leading the animal by a rope as he strokes its fur - completely unaware of the brutal attack which is about to occur. A video of the incident has gone viral, with viewers taking to the comments section to share their thoughts of what happened. One person wrote: 'Cats usually don't like "being petted on the lower (back) body', 'This man was petting the tiger continuously near the above-mentioned body area, which must have frustrated the tiger. 'The final straw was when the man cupped it for a photo.' Another added: 'The chilling video "exposes a dangerous trend" wherein tourists get "lured into risky photo-ops with tigers in Thailand."' A third said: 'It's not the petting (even though that's also dumb and ill-advised) it's him holding the tiger across its back when he poses for the pic. 'Cats do not like to be restrained. 'The cat could also interpret it as a sign of dominance over it.' Fortunately, the man only sustained minor injuries following the incident at the famous Tiger Kingdom in Phuket. This isn't the only time a tourist has suffered the consequences of trying to interact with a wild animal recently. Earlier this month a hippo knocked down a holidaymaker after she ignored a man's warning not to approach it. Footage shows the enraged beast charging at the woman before using its head to ram her face-first to the ground as bystanders watch on in horror. The person behind the camera can be heard shouting, 'he's going to charge' and telling a child 'this is what you call an idiot' as the woman moves closer to the animal. 'She's not listening,' the child responds as the rotund creature barrels towards her, slamming her into the grass and fleeing the scene in St Lucia on Tuesday night. The cameraman shouts, 'you're stupid' as the stunned woman gets to her feet and staggers away, leaning on a man for support. The video, posted on the Facebook page 'St Lucia News' said there were 'warnings posted all over town' but that 'people still take stupid risks when approaching the hippos'. Another Facebook page, Unofficial: Into the Wild, added: 'Visitors are told by lodge, guesthouse owners, and businesses to stay far back from the hippos. 'But some people just don't listen. They are very lucky they weren't seriously hurt or killed. They have now made a hippo potentially more aggressive to humans by their foolish behavior. Stay back people.' According to local media, the tourists involved were ordered out of St Lucia, and accommodation establishments advised them not to take future bookings from them. 'They were given an hour to vacate town or face law enforcement proceedings,' reported the Zululand Observer.

Lindsay Lohan's 'Insane' New Selfie Has Fans Asking For Her Plastic Surgeon
is radiating relaxation, and fans are living for her fresh-faced glow. The "Parent Trap" star took to Instagram to share a stunning new selfie with the simple yet confident caption, 'Skin's on vacation mode.' Rocking wet, tousled hair and a ruffled white blouse, Lindsay Lohan snapped the photo from the backseat of a car, giving fans a close-up look at her effortlessly flawless complexion. In the photo, Lindsay gazes softly at the camera with a gentle smile, her dewy skin practically glowing in the natural light. Her strawberry-blonde hair, still damp and parted down the middle, cascades over her shoulders, while the delicate lace trim of her blouse adds a romantic touch. With no visible makeup, the selfie feels intimate, relaxed, and refreshingly real, a vibe fans couldn't get enough of. 'Skin is skinning,' one user raved, while another wrote, 'You look absolutely stunning like always Lindsay!!' Others couldn't help but gush over her ethereal glow, with one fan joking, 'I need the surgeon right now. Because this is insane. I need to look like this.' Another added, 'You're so beautiful Lindsay! Love seeing your happy glow!' And while the compliments poured in, so did the speculation. Earlier this month, Lindsay and her longtime publicist addressed ongoing rumors about plastic surgery during an interview with Elle. Her team was quick to shut down the chatter, with her publicist calling out the harsh assumptions. 'The second she looks any different, people say she had her face lifted at 37 or 38. It's so mean,' they said. Lindsay responded with her signature wit, joking, 'When? With what time? Where?' The actress, who welcomed her first child in July 2023, says her radiant skin is less about surgery and more about self-care. She credits her glow-up to a new skincare routine, laser facials, Botox, and a cleaner, healthier lifestyle. "I also drink a lot of green tea, a lot of water," Lindsay admitted. "I'm a big pickled beets person, so I put them in almost everything." Another addition she has made to her morning routine that she swears by is an ice-cold splash of water to wake up her face first thing in the morning. 'The haters can hate and be jealous,' her publicist added. 'But women should be allowed to look good without being torn apart for it.' She also shared that she tried Morpheus8 once, a popular skin-tightening treatment, but stopped after realizing her skin was too thin to tolerate it. 'My skin changed after I had my son,' she revealed. 'It became really sensitive, and that's what made me rethink my whole routine and diet.' In fact, Lindsay took things a step further and underwent blood testing to identify food sensitivities. 'I wanted to know everything I was allergic to, so I cut it all out,' she said. 'That's when everything started to change for me.' She also spoke candidly about her son Luai, whom she welcomed with her husband Bader Shammas in July 2023, specifically about how being in L.A. can be hard. 'Even taking my son to the park in L.A., I get stressed. I'm like, 'Are there cameras?'" she explained. However, in New York, "there's no worry" because "no one bothers us." She added that Dubai provides the perfect balance for her family. 'I'm thinking as I'm saying this, the funny thing is, in Dubai I get all of those things. I get the privacy, I get the peace, I get the space. I don't have to worry there; I feel safe,' she shared. Lohan has embraced the changes that come with motherhood with grace and honesty, from designing the perfect nursery to adjusting to her postpartum body. After welcoming baby Luai, she shared a powerful message about the experience of recovery and transformation. 'I am so proud of what this body was able to accomplish during these months of pregnancy and now, recovery,' she said. 'Having a baby is the greatest joy in the world!' Now focused on motherhood and wellness, Lindsay says she's learned to tune out the noise and prioritize what makes her feel good. And if her latest selfie is any indication, that mindset is paying off both inside and out.

Makeup-free Lindsay Lohan, 38, looks like a TEENAGER in new selfie with wet hair after denying plastic surgery
Lindsay Lohan looks decades younger than her years in a new makeup-free selfie after recently shutting down the countless rumors online that she got a facelift. In her latest Instagram post, the actress, 38, could easily pass for a teenager as she shared a new photo of herself in the car rocking wet hair and a white blouse. 'Skin's on vacation mode,' she captioned the image, which received more than 50,945 likes in less than two hours. Her comment section was filled with sweet messages from her more than 15.6 million Instagram followers, many of whom gushed that she looked 'radiant and flawless.' 'You're so beautiful Lindsay,' one fan wrote underneath the post. 'Love seeing your happy glow!' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Another raved: 'So glad to see you shining again.' Others pleaded for her to share her entire skincare routine and the exact juice she drinks in the morning, which she partially credits for her glow. Earlier this month, Lohan and her publicist addressed speculation that she underwent plastic surgery to reduce signs of aging during an interview with Elle. 'The second she looks any different, they assume she had her face lifted at 37 or 38, that she ripped apart this or that. It's so mean,' Lohan's publicist explained. Lohan, who gave birth to her first child in July 2023, then quipped: 'I'm like, "When? With what time? Where?"' 'I tried to figure that out, Linds, in the last three years, when you had time to do anything, because I know your schedule,' her publicist added. 'So the haters can hate and be jealous. It just sucks that that's where they go with women in today's world. Women can't just look good to look good and change their lifestyle to be more healthy.' Lohan explained she has learned to brush off the rumors and 'ignore everyone else.' She proceeded to attribute her glow-up to her new skincare routine, Botox, adhering to a healthier diet and 'less invasive procedures like laser facials.' 'I also drink a lot of green tea, a lot of water,' she insisted. 'I'm a big pickled beets person, so I put them in almost everything.' Additionally, she starts her morning drinking a 'carrot, ginger, lemon, olive oil, apple' juice and adds chia seeds to her water throughout the day. 'I'm a big believer in ice-cold water on your face when you wake up,' she told readers. The star noted that she did try 'Morpheus8 once' but stopped after realizing her 'skin is so thin' that she couldn't 'be doing that.' 'My skin changed after having my son. It got really sensitive. That's what really made me change my whole routine and diet and everything. I did blood tests, and I was like, 'I want to know everything I'm allergic to.' So I cut everything out, and that's kind of when everything started to change for me,' Lohan disclosed.

Clean your lens: Dirty lens = bad photos. Control your breath: Heavy breathing while shooting can cause your phone to shake, reducing photo sharpness. Keep it steady: Brace your hands against your body or a wall for extra stability. Background: Stand away from your background to give added depth. Avoid messy backgrounds like an untidy room.
