Zayn Malik Courting Kylie Jenner? Newly Single Singer thinks Teen is Sexy

Zayn Malik, who just got out of a long-term relationship, already has a girl on his radar.

Malik, the former One Direction band member, is reportedly smitten with 17-year-old reality TV star, Kylie Jenner from "Keeping Up With the Kardashians."

The 22-year-old singer took the time to "favorite" one of Jenner's racy pictures on Twitter. In the picture, posted on July 30, Kylie is wearing a netted dress that shows off her underwear.

Since adding that post to his favorites tab, Malik has also started following Jenner's older half-sister, Khloe Kardashian, 31.

"Zayn thinks Kylie is absolutely the sexiest girl in the world and is always checking out her Snapchat videos. He was into her even when he was dating Perrie [Edwards]," an insider told Hollywoodlife.com exclusively. "Kylie totally loves getting attention from other guys. Why else would she post so many overtly sexy pics and videos of herself? To see guys get worked up and flustered because of her looks is a real high for Kylie. She even loves trying to make Tyga jealous."

The source added, "They met once a while ago through Harry [Styles] and Kendall [Jenner], but she was young and it was very brief. Since then, she's grown into an incredibly stunning girl, and Zayn has definitely noticed."

Once fans started noticing Malik's social media activities, many of them were not impressed. These fans stayed loyal to Edwards, who stood by Malik during tough times.

"It's unbelievable, he's an immature little boy with no thought for anyone else's feelings," The Sun reported. "Perrie is one of the sweetest girls in the world and she's stood by him through thick and thin. But he ended their engagement with one text message and in the two weeks since there's been complete radio silence between them."

Since the break up, Edwards has remained somewhat quiet. However, she recently stated that One Direction's newest song, which they recorded without Malik, is her favorite.
