Zendaya gave a shout-out to her beau Tom Holland during an appearance on “The Jennifer Hudson Show,” which airs on Friday!
While reflecting on the roles that shaped her, Zendaya gushed, “Being able to have the privilege to make these movies that I, like, watched as a kid, and met my best friend in the whole world there, I’m so grateful for that.”
Zendaya and Tom met on the set of the 2017 movie “Spider-Man: Homecoming,” in which they played love interests.
Zendaya has a “very busy year,” with the release of “The Drama,” “Euphoria,” “Dune: Part III,” and “Spider-Man: Brand New Day.”
She stressed, “I love my job and I love working.”
Zendaya admitted that the promotion tour “can be hard” since she’s a “quiet, private person.”
She noted, “Don’t worry, I’m taking a little break after this. We will be going back into hiding for a little bit.”
When asked how she likes to decompress, Zendaya kept it real, saying, “We’re working on that. We’re going to have to plan a little vacation or something.”
Zendaya talked about “going off the grid,” and leaving her phone at home!
She added, “I’m just going to take my [dogs].”
Zendaya is turning 30 in September and she’s “over” her 20s era.
She commented, “20s can be a little chaotic. I think you’re figuring so much out and everybody's like 30s like you know yourself better, like you know what you want, and so I’m looking forward to it.”
