Life before fame not judgemental, says Zayn Malik

London: Singer Zayn Malik says life was easier before he found fame with band One Direction as no one would judge him for anything.

"The fact that you could literally go anywhere, say anything and no one will judge you for it," thesun.co.uk quoted him as saying. "Now, if I was seen going to do something stupid like go to a kids` playhouse or something to be childish, people would look at me strangely," he added. Malik, along with his band members Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson, Liam Payne and Niall Horan, became popular after winning 2010 British reality show ‘The X Factor’ in 2010. IANS
