I couldn't find one of the statements you quoted. Specifically,

Better share this transcendental experience on my blog.

is not in the post. Have you misquoted? Are you deliberately misquoting to prove a larger point?

I gather from your post that you think all of the quoted statements form a contradiction. I don't think it necessarily does and only time will tell if Mr. Malik will use his blog to "live for how others perceive" him. Only time will tell if Mr. Malik uses his blog to do this.

I think Facebook is very good at manipulating people and getting people to engage with it a certain way. These forces of manipulation may not be present for a person who has a personal blog.

I think his statement about the number of his followers is that in spite of this he feels an emptiness with the interaction. Maybe the ego boost is no longer there. I don't think the statement was made for egotistical reasons. I don't know Mr. Malik but I'm willing to give the benefit of the doubt to him.
