After a bad break-up with Perrie Edwards last week, it looks like former One Direction member Zayn Malik is ready to move on with his life. Possibly, as his crush Kylie Jenner is no longer available, he is choosing to go with the next best replacement - her hot model sister.

The Hollywood Life reports that Malik has attended Kylie's 18th birthday bash at the Hollywood Club last Aug. 9, and although rumors state that he has been crushing on the birthday girl for the longest time, a source dishes that Malik didn't even attempt to flirt with Kylie any notice because he was too busy flirting with Kendall Jenner.

An insider said Malik didn't leave Kendall's side, laughing at her jokes and seemed to be at ease whenever she's around. Best of all, Kendall doesn't seem to mind getting all the attention from Malik. And, as both stars are single, people can't help but speculate that a new couple may be budding soon.

Furthermore, a source of The Mirror UK reveals that Malik has always wanted to join Kylie's circle because he likes the music scene that she is a part of, thanks to her rapper boyfriend, Tyga. Being single helps him best as he can freely go in and out of the party circuit without getting any flake from anyone.

Of course, any free publicity will be gladly accepted. Malik knows that Kylie's party will be shown in the hit reality show "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" and it may be the best vehicle to tell his fans in the US that he's back - single and definitely ready to mingle, the source added.

However, some feels this could be a little too early since Malik has just broken off his two-year engagement with Edwards, whom he allegedly told about his decision via a text message, Fashion & Style adds. One source calls Malik an "immature little boy" who apparently has no respect for anyone's feelings besides himself.

Although there are still no specific details provided about their split because both parties preferred to remain silent about the break-up, rumors are flying that the relationship has been on the rocks for the longest time and it was just waiting for the right moment to end, the source explains.

Could Kendall be the reason or is it all for show? The Hollywood Life later adds that Malik has "un-favorited" Kylie's Twitter photo after the party so that's probably the answer all fans is waiting for.
