What's the latest way to say, "I'm not a regular dude musician, I'm a cool dude musician?" Really creepy contact lenses! At last week's Met Gala, Kanye paired his spaceman jacket with jeans (jeans!) and icy blue eyes, and now, former second-hottest member of One Direction has done the same in his latest music video.

In the new vid for "Like I Would," Zayn wears a neon suit and adds not two, but oddly just one creepy orange contact lens.
