Biography
Despite her birthdate being September 1st, 1996 in Oakland, Zendaya Maree Stoermer Coleman hails from Arkansas. She has an African-American father named Kazembe Ajamu Coleman and a German and English mother named Claire Stoermer. Zendaya has five half-siblings who are very close to her: Katianna, Annabella, Kaylee, Austin, and Julien.
While studying at the Oakland School for the Arts, she was able to land a number of roles in local theatrical productions. In addition, she honed her skills at the American Conservatory Theater and the Cal Arts Conservatory. Due to her passion for dance, she was a member of the Future Shock Oakland dance group for a long time and also pursued hula dancing at the Academy of Hawaiian Arts.
Personal Life
Zendaya has not had many romantic relationships. Zendaya’s boyfriends are rarely mentioned because she prefers to keep her romantic rendezvous low-key. Zendaya’s role as Trevor’s love interest in Trevor’s music video ‘Like We Grown’ was co-starred by her in 2013. Zendaya and Trevor Jackson asserted that their relationship is solely platonic and that they have a close friendship.
Just when Spider-man was set to release it was reported that Zendaya and Tom Holland began dating in the Summer of 2017 but both denied any romantic relationship with each other despite fans trying every which way to ship the two.
When Zendaya and Jacob Elordi were spotted vacationing in Greece in August 2019, the rumors began to circulate. In ‘Euphoria,’ Jacob and Zendaya had a starring role. Until February 2020, when they were photographed kissing in NYC, they had maintained their friendship. Zendaya and Jacob’s split was implied by Jacob Elordi and Kia Gerber hanging out together only a few months later.
Career
Zendaya began her career as a star at a young age. Modeling for big brands was something she began doing when she was young. Her career began as a backup dancer and she also made an appearance as one of the back-up dancers in the Sears Arrive music video, which featured Selena Gomez.
Kidz Bop Kid status was granted to her in 2009 when she appeared on the Kidz Bop 15 album with Ross Lynch. Zendaya won her first role in ‘Shake It Up’ and later appeared in Disney’s original films ‘Frenemies’ (2012) and ‘Zapped’ (2014), which increased her acting ambitions.
Hollywood Records, who have previously signed Selena and the Jonas Brothers, signed her deal at the age of 16. Her self-titled debut album peaked at 51 on Billboard 200 and included the hit single ‘Replay.’
As a child model and backstage dancer, Zendaya was the start of her career in Hollywood. Shake It Up, a Disney Channel sitcom that aired between 2010 and 2013, was where she made her television debut. Next, she starred as the titular character in the sitcom K.C. Undercover during 2015–2018. The superhero movie Spider-Man: Homecoming was her first feature film, and she then starred in its sequels.
Zendaya’s career took a major turn when she played Rue Bennett, a drug-addicted teenager, in the HBO teen drama series Euphoria (2019-present). The Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series went to her for this role, making her the youngest recipient.
The long list of her performance also includes the musical drama The Greatest Showman (2017), the animated musical adventure Smallfoot (2018), the romantic drama Malcolm & Marie (2021), and the science fiction epic Dune (2021).
