Zayn Malik Was Forced To Do Fifty Shades Darker Duet With Taylor Swift

Reports have it that Zayn Malik and Taylor Swift’s Fifty Shades Darker duet only came about after he was forced to collaborate with the superstar.

The former One Direction singer recorded the track “I Don’t Want To Live Forever” for the film’s soundtrack, but a source noted Swift wasn’t a part of his original plan.

According to a RadarOnline source:

“Zayn loved the song and wanted it for himself; he was desperate to record it as a solo track and
thought it would be a real career boost.”

“It has all of the high notes he can reach and was perfect, but movie bosses said it had to be a collaboration and wanted him to work with Taylor.”

According to the source, 24-year-old Malik relented because Swift, 27, is one of the biggest pop star on the planet — and she happens to be best friends with his girlfriend, Gigi Hadid.
