Zayn Malik turned twenty five (Jaypers, you’d forget how young those guys are…) over the weekend and no one could be more excited to mark the occasion than foul-mouthed superhero Deadpool.
His alter ego - not Wade Wilson, but Ryan Reynolds - has been known to be infatuated with the former One Direction singer in the past:
Paint one mural of Zayn on the hood of your car using gold leaf and real hair, and suddenly you're "obsessed".

On Saturday, the Merc with the Mouth left a truly brilliant video message for Malik to celebrate his bday:
The full transcript reads: “Zayn, it's Wade. Don't hang up. I just want to wish you a very happy birthday. Again. I also want to apologise for jumping out of the cake like that. I didn't realise it was the middle of the night, I had no idea I was in the middle of your bedroom.
“I want to thank your security who were very, very gentle and creative with the taser. So anyway, happy birthday to you and Mr Tim Horton — you share your birthday with a very special Canadian who's very near and dear to my heart. Alright.”
