Fame: A double-edged sword
Zendaya didn't hold back on her feelings about fame either. From feeling like an "art piece" to learning the power of saying "no," she navigates her celebrity with grace and wisdom beyond her years. But it's not all glitz and glamour; the thought of raising a family under the relentless gaze of the public eye is something she contemplates with a mix of apprehension and maturity.

As if her revelations about love and fame weren't enough to keep us hooked, Zendaya also delved into her role in 'Challengers'. Playing "Tashi Duncan," a tennis prodigy turned coach, she finds herself in a tantalizing love triangle that promises to set screens ablaze. Directed by the acclaimed Luca Guadagnino, the film is a departure from Zendaya's previous roles, showcasing her versatility and daring as an actress.
