Gigi Hadid Shares A Touching Message Supporting Zayn Malik Over His Anxiety
“Your bravery in those times makes me proud, but your honesty last night proved what you’re all about, being real.”
The former One Direction star was set to perform at the annual Capital Summertime Ball Saturday, but then announced on Twitter that he wasn’t able to go through with the show.
“Unfortunately my anxiety that has haunted me throughout the last few months around live performances has gotten the better of me,” the 23-year-old singer wrote. “With the magnitude of the event, I have suffered the worst anxiety of my career.”
