Simon Cowell not interested in Zayn's comments

Music mogul Simon Cowell says he is not interested in whatever former One Direction band member Zayn Malik has to say about his former band members. However, the "The X Factor" boss is in awe of the youngster's singing skills.

"I'm not interested in a single word he says, but I am interested in what he sings. I've heard his music, it's good, he's going to do well," Cowell said, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

Malik had previously claimed that his former bandmates Harry Styles, Liam Payne, Niall Horan and Louis Tomlinson lied about staying in contact with him.

One Direction got their start from Cowell's singing reality show "The X Factor".
