Zayn has signed with UTA for representation across music, film and television, among other areas.
Currently at work on his fourth studio album, Zayn launched his career as a member of One Direction in 2010 before departing the group in 2015 to embark on a solo career. In 2016, he released his debut solo album, Mind of Mine, which hit No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and was certified platinum by the RIAA. The album’s lead single, “Pillowtalk,” also topped the Billboard Hot 100 and has since been certified five-times platinum by the RIAA. He has garnered several accolades for his music throughout his career, including a Billboard Music Award, an American Music Award, an MTV VMA and two Brit Award nods.
Zayn’s catalog, which encompasses three studio albums (2018’s gold-certified Icarus Falls, 2021’s Nobody Is Listening and Mind of Mine), has earned 4.6 million on-demand official U.S. streams, according to Luminate.
Outside of music, Zayn has also ventured into the fashion world, having collaborated on capsule collections with the likes of Giuseppe Zanotti and Versus Versace while gracing the cover of numerous fashion publications including Vogue, GQ, ELLE UK, Highsnobiety, PAPER and The FADER. In 2017, he was named “Most Stylish Man” at the British GQ Men of the Year Awards.
Elsewhere, ZAYN has advocated for free school lunches for children living in poverty in the UK, penning an open letter to Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.
Zayn is also represented by Nicola Carson at ZenKai Management and Taryn Zimmerman.
