One Direction fans call for Naughty Boy to be suspended from Twitter after he appears to brand them 'fake'
One Direction fans are calling for Naughty Boy to be suspended from Twitter after he appeared to brand them “fake”.
The music producer – real name Shahid Khan – who angered fans of the boy band after rumours circulated that he was producing Zayn Malik’s solo material – has found himself the target of 'directioners' once again after allegedly attacking them in a tweet.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en">embrace a world where there's something to fight for, but this generation of fake fandom are doomed beyond belief. a change is coming fam!— Naughty Boy (@NaughtyBoyMusic) <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://twitter.com/NaughtyBoyMusic/status/591010043803369472" class="body-link" data-vars-item-name="BL-60566-https://twitter.com/NaughtyBoyMusic/status/591010043803369472" data-vars-event-id="c23">April 22, 2015</a>
The post in question, reads: “embrace a world where there's something to fight for, but this generation of fake fandom are doomed beyond belief. a change is coming fam!”
Although the tweet did not explicitly name One Direction fans, they have taken offence, with the hashtag #GetNaughtyBoySuspended soon trending on Twitter.
Some directioners branded him a hypocrite for talking about fans when they say he has none, with one user posting: “Look whose talking about 'fandoms' @NaughtyBoyMusic you don't even have fans bro.”
Others have called out for Malik to defend them, writing: “@zaynmalik defend us zayn you know us.”
Naughty Boy was last month forced to delete a sample of a song featuring Malik from his Twitter after he was bombarded with abusive messages.
Malik’s former bandmate Louis Tomlinson also publicly slammed the producer for “deliberately provoking” fans.
