If there is one Black queen that is currently killing it right now, it’s our favourite superstar Zendaya. From Emmy nominations to blessing the timeline with stunning selfies, the actress is consistently breaking the internet and we’re totally here for it.

Having first broke onto the scene in the Disney Channel dance flick Shake It Up with fellow Disney graduate Bella Thorne, the multifaceted performer has gone on to conquer not only the TV and film industry, but the fashion world as well, with her daring choices and simplistic style. We’ve rounded up seven iconic moments of Zendaya from over the years, so sit back and reminisce on the actress’ best bits with us.

Someone hand Zendaya the Emmy ASAP!

Did someone say black girl magic? Nominated for her standing ovation performance in Euphoria as the troubled Rue Bennet, Zendaya is up against the likes of Jennifer Aniston, Jodie Comer and Sandra Oh for Lead Actress In a Drama and we wish the actress the best of luck!

The Royal Ball or The Met Gala?

Zendaya said, ‘I will go to the ball’ in her Tommy Hilfiger Cinderella-inspired light-up dress for 2019 MET Gala and we wished we were her date.

This look is stamped and dated in the history the books as the only time the actress as out-dressed our #MCM Michael B. Jordan. Both wearing the same grey suit differently, the two stars looked serene on red carpets for the Harper Bazaar Icons party and at the Vanity Fair party. But as the pictures both circulated on who wore it better, Jordan quickly pipped in admitting defeat in comments saying “@zendaya hands down no contest”.

Zendaya lip-syncing to Beyonce

2014–2015 was a time we wish we could go back to. From King Bach dominating Vine to Kimye tying to the knot, life was easy-breezy compared to now. But if you’re an avid social media user like us, you’ll remember Zendaya’s more than iconic Facebook page. Graced with various hilarious videos and adorable selfies, the actress’s FB page made a name for itself with she stared to upload lip-syncing videos of her rapping along to Beyonce, Nicki Minaj and Rich Gang. The video’s pulled in so many views, it’s now been posted on YouTube racking in a whopping five million views.

Wild ‘N Out

You have to be braver than brave to go on Nick Cannon’s comedy rap show Wild ’N Out, and Zendaya was ready to face the challenge back in 2017 with Ne-Yo in tow. Taking part in the Talking Spit Challenge, Zendaya proudly took her team to victory by holding in laughter even when they sang her name to the Lion King’s “The Circle Of Life” – we love a team player.

Need we say anymore? It doesn’t get more incredible than this!

Shake It Up

Everyone starts somewhere, and for Zendaya dancing as the fierce Rocky Blue in the 2010 series of Shake It Up was her first major stepping stone. This tune made with co-star Bella Thorne for this show had is learning the dance rapidly back in the day, and we’re not ashamed to stay we still play it now.
