The graceful young girl from the Disney Channel with the beautiful name Zendaya flew into Hollywood with lightning speed! Collaboration with Beyoncé and Taylor Swift, playing MJ in the new Spider-Man movies, a fantastic duet with Zac Efron in The Greatest Showman, and finally, over 110 million Instagram followers. But wait, there’s more!
Here are 15 fascinating things you never know about Zendaya.
1. Zendaya is deliberately using only her name because it’s cool, like Cher or Prince. At least that’s what she thinks.
2. She is the only child of Claire Stormer and Kazembe Ajamu. But she has five more brothers and sisters from her father’s side. Surprisingly, the actress was born already an aunt — she has nephews and nieces older than her. How does that work? Don’t ask.
3. If Zendaya had not become an actress or singer, she would have chosen the profession of a teacher, like her parents, or would have joined the NBA (eventually).
4. In The Greatest Showman, where she played an aerial acrobat, Zendaya performed most of the impossible trapeze tricks herself.
5. She once had a cute schnauzer named Midnight, who died in October 2015. Now her pet is a miniature schnauzer named Noon. Get it? Midnight and Noon?
