Zayn Malik's First appearance since leaving One Direction

Weeks after exiting One Direction, Zayn Malik has made his first public appearance, walking the red carpet with his mother at the Asian Awards 2015. The 22-year-old singer was honored for his Outstanding Achievement in Music.

In receiving the award, the former member of the boy band, gave his acceptance speech saying: "I'd also like to take this moment to thank four of the best guys that I ever met whilst being in the band and doing all the amazing things that I did. Some of the things that we did will stay with me for the rest of my life,". He added "Here's to the future."

He looks refreshed and happy...Or is it my eyes?
