One Direction will go up against Zayn Malik at the 2015 Teen Choice Awards.

The 'Kiss You' hitmakers - made up of Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Liam Payne and Louis Tomlinson - are all pitched against their former bandmate, who quit in March this year, in the Fashion Choice Male Hottie category.

Fans of the boyband - who are also nominated in the Choice Music Group: Male and in the

Choice Song: Group category for their track 'Steal My Girl' - quickly took to their social media accounts to express their horror at having to choose between the 22-year-old singer and the remaining members of the group.

A fan wrote: ''Just when you thought the 1D fandom drama is calming down. Teen Choice awards has just started world war three.''

Another wrote: '''You have got to be kidding me! My heart aches.''

The other artists nominated in the category are 5 Seconds of Summer, Austin Mahone, Justin Bieber and Ryan Guzman.

Elsewhere, Taylor Swift received three nominations in the Fashion Choice Female Hottie, Choice Female Artist and Choice Song: Female Artist category for her song 'Shake It Off', while her close friend Ed Sheeran received two for Music Choice Male Artist and Choice Song: Male Artist for his hit 'Thinking Out Loud'.

Meanwhile, sci-fi fantasy 'The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1' leads the nominations in the film categories and is up for the Choice Movie: Sci-Fi/Fantasy award with stars Liam Hemsworth, Josh Hutcherson and Jennifer Lawrence nominated in the Choice Movie Actor: Sci-Fi/Fantasy and Choice Movie Actress: Sci-Fi/Fantasy categories respectively.
