More quotes by Zendaya
I was actually supposed to be a basketball player, not an actress. My parents had me playing basketball on competitive teams when I was in kindergarten. Even though my heart belongs to the arts, I'm a tomboy at heart, too.
Zendaya
I do not believe in a label on a shirt or a dress should tell me that I can't wear a T-shirt or a pant because it should say women'sor men's on it, you know? That's just not how it should work.
Zendaya
I’m one of those people who doesn’t follow trends. I set them.
Zendaya
I'm going forward, so my clothing line is kind of the physicalization of that. The idea of diversity, of uniqueness, of individuality - that's what this is all about.
Zendaya
I've always dressed myself, even when I was younger. My parents didn't pick out my clothes or anything. They let me do that, which I think is an important thing because it allows for kids to experiment and figure out what they like, even at a young age.
Zendaya
Sometimes when you see things online, it's very consuming.
Zendaya
Well, I am not sure of when my album will be released but my music has a lot of different sounds. I'm a hip-hop/R&B girl at heart, but I love pop music as well, and I even have an affinity for country music. So I would say my music might have something for everyone.
Zendaya
I think a lot of women can see themselves in me and a lot of people in general are empowered by seeing someone wear what they want, do what they want, maybe get criticism or get praise, whatever, but still continue to wear and do what they want. I think that a lot of people need that.
Zendaya
I have a really strong passion for what I do. I don’t see myself doing anything else.
Zendaya
I just see me, an ordinary girl. I know my life is not typical, but I have tried to stay really grounded and true to myself. My family really helps me with that.
Zendaya
You have to experiment and that's gonna help your confidence so much when you step out and try things.
Zendaya
I have a job that allows me not to look perfect all the time. I can just go looking the way I look, have my hair just any old type of way.
Zendaya
Don't try so hard to fit in, and certainly don't try so hard to be different just try hard to be you.
Zendaya
Chanel all the way! Just because not only do they have timeless pieces, but since it is the epitome of class and elegance.
Zendaya
That's what is really cool about this whole new wave of makeup artistry and people on Instagram and YouTube: It's about doing it for yourself and experimenting. People don't wear makeup to impress people or because they'll be seen in public. It's more of a hobby now, just because it's fun.
Zendaya
Of course designers inspired me, but I was more inspired by everyday people. People that I see walking down the street.
Zendaya
I think my goal is not even with celebrities. I love celebrities, but my goal is to walk down the street and just see people wearing my stuff - that is the goal!
Zendaya
I love to entertain and make people laugh.
Zendaya
I use my platform for more than just myself. Art is a reflection of human emotions. To neglect the political is to neglect what essentially is your job of storytelling. I would rather be known for the content of my character than for the project that I did.
Zendaya
[Diversity] is the future. You can't stop it. It's going where it's going, so I choose to be with the future.
