• The singer also recently resumed his Konnakol Tour after hospitalization.

A video from outside a Manchester hotel started making rounds on the Internet after the singer was spotted looking visibly upset while trying to leave following his recent concert at the AO Arena. In the clip, Zayn can be heard shouting, "Get the f*** out of the way!" as his vehicle struggled to move through the crowd gathered outside. Entertainment outlet TMZ reported the incident as Zayn lashing out at fans, but the singer was quick to push back and clarify what he says actually went down that night.

Stalkers Blocked Hotel Exit

Zayn chose to address the situation directly in the comments section of TMZ's Instagram post. He made a clear distinction between his actual fanbase and the people he says were responsible for blocking his exit.

"Let's just get the facts straight - the fans were and always are respectful and amazing - the issue was the multiple fully grown men that were blocking the doors of the hotel and the car for 10 minutes not letting us or security out" he wrote. He said they were not fans but stalkers who show up wherever they want to meet someone, doing the same thing to everyone just to get content. He added that it was neither safe nor okay, and that such behaviour ruins the experience for real fans.

The response drew significant support online, with many fans rallying behind the singer. The comment also sparked a wider conversation about the safety concerns celebrities face outside hotels, airports and concert venues.

Zayn Hospitalised Before Resuming Konnakol Tour

The Manchester moment is just one of several things keeping Zayn in the headlines recently. The singer had worried fans earlier this year when he was hospitalised unexpectedly in April, which led to the cancellation of two UK arena shows and portions of his US tour dates. Zayn shared an update through Instagram Stories at the time, posting a photo from his hospital bed along with a message for his fans. He also thanked the doctors, nurses and cardiologists who treated him during his recovery, though he did not reveal the specific reason for his hospitalisation.
