Zendaya is one of the most beloved and popular actresses of the moment, and it is not surprising, since she had a spectacular year, as she demonstrated her wide range as an actress with the premieres of Malcolm and Marie, Dune Y Spider-Man: No Way Home.
The reasons for her popularity are not few, since in addition to being a very talented actress, she is one of the greatest references in fashion. Her simplicity, effort and talent have spoken for themselves in the industry, but those who have worked with her are not silent and do not hesitate to praise her whenever they can. Below we will tell you about seven celebrities who have made public their admiration for the young actress.
1. Tom Holland
The actor talked about how the role of Spider-Man completely changed his life and how Zendaya, his co-star, was his great reference for how he wanted to behave and wanted the public to perceive it, since she has been in the public eye since who was a teenager and has always handled fame very well.
When you get bigger roles, not only do you get the chance to act in amazing movies and travel the world, but the whole world knows who you are. And you have to start behaving differently. You have a certain responsibility to be a good role model for children who look up to you. And I can say that [Zendaya] she is the best at it. You can’t find any scandal in him, he’s like a perfect person. It was wonderful to have someone like her by my side, helping me through that process.
2. Timothée Chalamet
Timothée and Zendaya worked together on the sci-fi film Dune, directed by Denis Villeneuve. This film has a spectacular cast, with actors such as Rebecca Ferguson and Oscar Isaac, so Zendaya admitted that she felt a bit overwhelmed. To this, Timothée responded by calling her one of the best actresses of her generation.
Zendaya is one of the best actresses of my generation. I have had the opportunity to work with some of the best, like Saoirse Ronan and Florence Pugh, and I had the same experience with Zendaya. And I’m not the only one who thinks this.
3. Storm Reid
Young actress Storm Reid worked with Zendaya on the HBO series Euphoria, for which Zendaya won an Emmy Award. In August 2020, Storm had the following to say in an interview with the magazine Elle.
Zendaya is someone I have looked up to since I was nine years old. She has always represented the perfect example of a young woman who is completely authentic and, at the same time, is an example to follow for many young people, all this while showing the world that she can achieve anything that she sets her mind to. Yes, it started on Disney Channel, but I feel like its transition from Disney to what it is doing now [Euphoria] It was beautiful. It inspires me a lot.
4. Jacob Elordi
Jacob Elordi is another of the main actors of Euphoria. Despite rumors that they were in a romantic relationship, Jacob’s comments towards Zendaya have always been very flattering but professional.
Zendaya’s creativity is incredible. She is amazing to work with, she is an amazing artist and a person who cares about everyone.
5. Bella Thorne
Bella and Zendaya worked together when they were both Disney girls on the show In full swing. Naturally, there were comparisons between the two, but there is nothing of enmity between them. Also, Bella claims that, over the years, they became great friends.
It has always been amazing and it will always be amazing. I’m glad people can see your talent. He’s getting the recognition he deserves, and that makes me very happy.
6. Zac Efron
Zac Efron and Zendaya were a couple in the movie The great showman, starring Hugh Jackman. In promotional interviews, they both praised each other’s work, but Zac went a bit further, stating that his kiss with Zendaya is his favorite of his entire career.
I think it was my favorite acted kiss. At that point there was so much tension built up between the characters that literally even the gazes between them were electric. When they finally find the courage to kiss, it’s a great musical moment, it’s epic.
7. Mindy Kaling
Mindy Kaling has not worked with Zendaya, but she has made it clear that she is a great admirer of the young actress.
My heart stopped when I realized that Zendaya is following me on Instagram. I still think of that Tom Ford dress he wore, the one with a cuirass part. Although I probably shouldn’t admit that, it is sure to ‘unfollow’ me.
