Zendaya

At 26 years old, Zendaya became the youngest to win two Emmys for acting when she snagged the trophy for outstanding lead actress in a drama series Monday ...

"My greatest wish for 'Euphoria' was that it could help heal people and I just want to say thank you to everyone who has shared their story with me," she said.

"I want you to know that anyone who has loved a Rue or feels like they are Rue, I want you to know that I'm so grateful for your stories and I carry them with me and I carry them with her."

While Zendaya was making history at the Emmys 2022, one familiar face was noticeably absent: her boyfriend, Tom Holland.

Zendaya was born to mom Claire Stoermer and dad Kazembe Ajamu Coleman on Sept. 1, 1996. Here's everything to know about the actress' parents.

"My dad is going to vet any guy that even looks at me," Zendaya said in 2016. "Honestly, I think about my little nieces and my little nephews first," she told the outlet in 2015. I give it up to them, I give it up to my family." "Because one day they're going to have Twitter and they're going to have Instagram, and I'm going to be like, 'This is how you handle it, kids.'"

"So my mom's a dope ass jewelry designer/maker and also slays my line," the actress wrote on In fact, she further shared that "in 2nd grade [she] failed some spelling tests and got in a lot of trouble!" Though Zendaya is the only child of Claire and Kazembe, she has five older stepsiblings from her father's previous marriage. "Having such a big, grounded family, I realized as you get older how important that is." "My beauty icons are the women in my life. "Growing up, I watched my mom teach in the heart of Oakland, California, at inner-city schools that were always underfunded.

“I've always been really adamant to keep my private life private, because I share so much of my life with the world anyway. “Why did hearing zendaya say she texted tom first about her win make me cry i love them,” one person tweeted. “And I text my boyfriend.” I want you to know that anyone who has loved a Rue, or feels like they are a Rue. One more joked: “I don’t know what I’m more jealous of the fact Tom Holland gets texts from zendaya or being able to refer to Tom Holland as my boyfriend like I’m sick.” “I carry them with me and I carry them with her, so thank you so much.”

Leonardo DiCaprio is said to have broken up with his girlfriend of four years, Camila Morrone, and is now reportedly 'getting to know' supermodel Gigi ...

At one point during his monologue, Kenan took a shot at Leonardo and his dating life when he joked about the age of his partners, stating how the talented and lovely Zendaya could never be on his radar since she is too old for the Hollywood star. “There’s so many relationships in Hollywood — and in the history of the world — where people have large age gaps. But things took an awkward turn when she became the center of a joke made by host Kenan Thompson.

Emmys host Kenan Thompson made a joke about Leonardo DiCaprio's girlfriends while introducing Zendaya at last night's awards ceremony.

“He’s done so much to fight climate change and leave behind a cleaner, greener planet for his girlfriends. Before receiving her reward, however, host Thompson seized the opportunity to make a joke about her age, saying: “Zendaya just turned 26. And at 26, she is also the youngest actress ever to win two Emmy awards.

Zendaya fell victim to another comedian's joke that made everybody feel slightly uncomfortable during last Monday's Emmy Award celebration.

The 26-year-old actress also became the youngest person to win two aacting Grammy Awards. The actor is known for dating women who are younger then him but he is trolled for allegedly ending the relationship right as they turn 25. This makes Zeendaya the first African American actress to win a leading acting Emmy twice. All but perhaps Leonardo DiCaprio find this funny, even Zendaya seemed to like the joke there referred to her 26th birthday that just happened last week. Comedian Kenan Thompson crafted a joke that made everybody laugh hard. It's that same ageist joke about Leonardo DiCaprio that keeps the actor as a running gag on Twitter.

Klein personally picks which parties he will allow to do this, and its only for “winners.” “But the real star of the party among all the stars was Zendaya,” added the source. “The entire casts of “Succession,” “Hacks,” “White Lotus,” “Curb Your Enthusiasm” and “Euphoria” were eating sushi and tacos and drinking and dancing and having fun.
