X Factor favourites One Direction have been spotted out together as a band for the first time since the X Factor as they flew into Los Angeles yesterday - and Zayn Malik revealed he's got rid of his quiff for a floppy fringe.

In keeping with the rest of his bandmates - bar curly haired Harry Styles - Zayn appears to have opted for a আরো Justin Bieber-esque swept অগ্রবর্তী style.

The boy band finalists are thought to be over in the States to work on their forthcoming debut album.

Louis Tomlinson couldn't believe his luck at his transatlantic trip and Tweeted: 'So excited to be in L.A will tweet pictures when I can :) xx'
