Picking just one of the scampish One Direction boys to be your favourite is no easy task; with an array of badly-tattooed singers to choose from we find that, after Harry Styles, obviously, our rankings of the other three change on a monthly basis – Louis Tomlinson always lingering at the bottom rung of the ladder to our affections. (Sorry, Louis, wear some socks and then we can talk).

But, yeah, the whole point is that Harry is, like, the universal favourite in the band, the one everyone and their mum is obsessed with. However, Lorde has been spotted with a Zayn Malik iPhone case.

This crush would kind of make sense: Zayn is the quieter, surly one in the band and that sure is interesting. Plus, he’s engaged to Perrie Edwards from Little Mix, which makes him very unattainable and probably extra attractive for it. Also, on a really basic level, he’s really fit.

When a fan asked Lorde – who has previously stoked the ire of many a Directioner by saying One Direction are ‘overrated’ – fi she really had an iPhone case with a picture of Zayn Malik and a dog on it, she replied, ‘haha no @tavitulle is to blame i think i was putting my number in her phone!’

So, as it turns out, Rookie editor Tavi Gevinson, is a big Zayn Malik fan, not Lorde. And Tavi and Lorde, both 17-year-old prodigies who make us feel a little bit inadequate about our achievements, are such good mates that they have each others’ phone numbers.

After that epic interview Tavi did with Lorde, we almost kind of wish phone hacking wasn’t so terrible and illegal, because we’d love to listen in on any conversation they have.
