Unless you’ve been living under a rock since yesterday afternoon, you’ll already know that One Direction’s high-note-hitting, brooding Bradford babe Zayn Malik has quit the band after five happy years.
His dramatic exit came days after Zayn was spotted cuddling up to a blonde tourist in Thailand, sparking vicious rumours that he’d been unfaithful to his fiancee, Little Mix’s Perrie Edwards.
Frustrated fans of the band were quick to pin the blame on Perrie, who is yet to comment on either the photos of Zayn and his new friend or his exit from the band. The 21-year-old singer has been told by fans that she should throw in the towel on her own music career to support Zayn, and some have even compared her to Yoko Ono.
I think Perrie Edwards just pulled a Yoko Ono with Zayn tbh

So is Perrie Edwards like the Yoko Ono of the 21st century?

Perrie Edwards more like Yoko Ono.

Hang on – 1D fans actually know who Yoko Ono is? It’s a pretty harsh comparison, considering Ono’s relationship with John Lennon was considered the reason behind to Beatles split.
But hang on again – does that mean Zayn Malik is being compared to John Lennon? REALLY?
Here’s a funny joke to help with that painful comparison:
I can't believe I have to explain this to you. If you're going to call Perrie Edwards the second Yoko Ono, just call her Yoko Dos.
