Another day, another celebrity Twitter beef.
Calvin Harris and former One Direction bandmate Zayn Malik were involved in a Twitter spat this afternoon, mates.
Their short back-and-forth began after Zayn retweeted a meme that compared Taylor Swift’s position on streaming services/album sales to that of Miley Cyrus.

Calvin, who took Zayn’s retweet as a shot at his girlfriend Taylor, fired back at the 22-year-old.

Zayn, clearly not one to take jabs lightly, responded to Calvin with a few choice insults of his own.

Calvin then flew above the drama and ended things.
