Zendaya appreciates fans for understanding her boundaries.
In her recent interview and cover shoot with Vogue Italia, actress Zendaya shared how she does not feel the need to shake things up when it comes to her personal life. During the interview, the Euphoria actress reflected upon her private life and said that she has built a sense of boundaries with her fans.
Zendaya, who started her career as an actress at the age of 14, said that her fans have grown up with her and witnessed her evolve and grow in different parts of her life and career, because of which they understand and acknowledge that she is human. The actress, who recently got an appreciation for her role in Spider-Man: No Way Home as MJ and HBO Max’s Euphoria as Rue, noted that even her ardent admirers accept her boundaries and want her to be pleased with what she decides to keep a little bit more personal and retain for herself.
The actress said that recently she has had more of a change happening in regards to the reactions she gets when she meets people or how they react to her while meeting her daily. She explained that for a long time she was able to maintain a little bit of anonymity in a way that she could go off and do things and still live a pretty normal life, but things have changed now, especially after she starred in ‘Euphoria’ and her relationship with Tom Holland (although she kept tight lipped about her romance with the actor throughout the interview) said that the new status of fame and spotlight comes with its challenges and pressures.
Zendaya has been a part of the industry for a long time so she understands and knows how to cope and said that thankfully she has had a little bit of time to ease and grow her experience in a way that was not just completely an overnight change. She added that she is always adjusting to it and trying to be grateful for all of it in the end because it means that people are resonating with her work which means a lot to her.
During the interview, it was mentioned that Zendaya has become a portrait of our generation who has an impact on pop culture and was asked if she ever thought or thinks that she is writing history to which the actress said that it’s a weird thing and added that it’s something one tries to be aware and conscious of but also not think about so that it does not go into their head because it could get scary and nerve-wracking at times. Zendaya who looks stunning for the cover photoshoot said that she has always loved clothes and feels that they are one of the many ways to express and fashion has taught her so much about herself and how to be so much fearless in a lot of different ways.
Zendaya during the interview mentioned that sometimes she feels kind of silly being an actor because it’s like she makes-believe for a living which according to her might sound or seem ridiculous but then she is reminded of the stories she is telling or putting out in the world and the reasons behind it. She mentioned Euphoria and said that a lot of people reached out to her to share their experience of connecting with the show in the sense of loss or addiction or grief or mental illness and their challenges which makes her feel grateful and lucky to embody and in that the people feel very connected to her and they have been able to heal and grow and learn and mend the part of their past and that Zendaya explains is invaluable and added that it gives her purpose to keep going.
