‘The Summer I Turned Pretty’ under fire for ‘disrespecting’ Zayn Malik
Zayn Malik fans slam 'The Summer I Turned Pretty' for using 'Let Me in 'cringe' scene
The Summer I Turned Pretty featured one of Zayn Malik’s songs in the third season and everyone's not thrilled.
Fans of the former One Direction star were left appalled after his single Let Me was featured in what many are calling the "cringiest scene ever."
The track from his 2018 album Icarus Fall was used during an all boys dance rehearsal, which struck the wrong chord with some of Zayn’s supporters, who felt the moment didn’t do justice to the artist’s music.
Many took to social media to express their disappointment, arguing that the show "disrespected" the Dusk Till Dawn hitmaker's artistry and "ruined" the song by pairing the beloved track with a cheesy sequence.
While some found it entertaining, others felt that the awkward scene was mismatched with the song’s vibe and undeserving of Zayn's emotional vocals.
One dramatically wrote on Reddit, "WHAT IN THE ZAYN MALIK IS HAPPENING — THEY ARE PROFANING HIS SONG [crying emoji]," highlighting the disapproval over how the track was used.
"Zayn deserves a better scene than this [upset emoji]," another added.
A third chimed in saying, "I can't believe zayn agreed to this."
"Jeremiah has no right using a zayn song and of all songs LET ME? [crying emoji]," a fourth commented, expressing as if the popular series has treated something highly valued with disrespect or irreverence.
In episode seven, titled "Last Hurrah," a scene shows the boys, including Jeremiah and Steven, rehearsing a wedding dance as part of Belly and Jeremiah's bachelorette party celebrations.
The moment takes place at the Cousins Beach house, where both the bridal party and the groomsmen are seen practicing their choreographed routines.
