Harry Styles was seen cupping Zayn Malik's private parts in a photo taken backstage at One Direction's Atlanta show on June 21.

While Styles smiled for the camera, Malik posed a fake outrage face, with his hand placed over Styles'. The photo surfaced only a few days after Malik was caught on video nibbling on a candy thong worn by one of his band mates on stage during their Ohio concert, held on June 18.

See the photo here of Styles cupping Malik.

Styles put on edible undies over his skinny jeans during their Ohio concert and then walked over to the other singers sitting on the edge of the stage. First to take a bite at the candy was Malik. Footage from the concert shows him sinking down his head to Styles' privates and nibbling on the edibles while the crowd screams in the background. The other singers refuse to take a bite and Styles shortly after takes the thong off. See the video below.

One Direction is traveling the U.S. as part of their Take Me Home tour.

A sneak peek trailer shows the band traveling to Japan, performing on stage, getting swarmed by paparazzi and fans, and living their life on the road as they tour the globe.
