Signature

Born and raised in Oakland, California, Zendaya began her career as a child model and backup dancer. She made her television debut as Rocky Blue in the Disney Channel sitcom Shake It Up (2010\u20132013) and starred as the titular character in the channel's sitcom K.C. Undercover (2015\u20132018). Her feature film debut came in 2017 as MJ in the superhero film Spider-Man: Homecoming; she later reprised her role in its sequels Far from Home (2019) and No Way Home (2021). Zendaya's role as Rue Bennett, a struggling drug-addicted teenager, in the HBO teen drama series Euphoria (2019\u2013present) made her the youngest recipient of the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series, which she won twice. Her other film roles include the musical The Greatest Showman (2017), the romantic dramas Malcolm & Marie (2021) and Challengers (2024), and the science fiction films Dune (2021) and Dune: Part Two (2024).\n

In 2011, Zendaya released the singles \"Swag It Out\" and \"Watch Me\", the latter a collaboration with Bella Thorne. She signed with Hollywood Records in 2012, and released her eponymous debut studio album (2013) to moderate success. The album's lead single, \"Replay\", reached the top 40 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart. Her Zac Efron collaboration, \"Rewrite the Stars\", from The Greatest Showman soundtrack (2017), reached the top 20 of several record charts and has received multi-platinum sales certifications globally. She has also written and performed several songs for Euphoria.\n
