When Sang asked Malik about shooting the video with his girlfriend, Malik didn't deny the term. "Yeah, that was cool," he said. "It was something different. We enjoyed it, it was fun. Had a lot of fun on set."

It may not be the most official of confirmations, but he certainly didn't try to correct Sang from describing Hadid as his "girlfriend." Malik also opened up writing "Pillowtalk" after leaving One Direction. "[I] got in the studio with a couple of writers that go by the name of Mike and Anthony Hannides," he explained. "We wrote that song around the time that I was feeling those emotions and I feel like that's why it came out the way it did. I feel like in the vocal you can get a sense that I'm meaning what I'm saying."

Malik wouldn't go into detail about the specifics behind the experience that led to "Pillowtalk." He said, "I don't want to be obviously too specific about what it's about. It is obviously quite personal to me." He would rather listeners figure it out for themselves, though. Read more and listen to the full interview - here.
