Zendaya says one shouldn't be intimidated in H'wood: 'Ask for things you are worthy of'

Spider-Man: Homecoming star Zendaya feels it is important not to be intimidated in Hollywood, while not creating an impression of being a "difficult" person just because she stands up for herself. In an interview with OK! Magazine, she said women should own their power and not be afraid to ask for the things that they are worthy of.

Speaking to the magazine, Zendaya said that sometimes people are asked to be "little afraid of our power". However, one should own that power and ask for things "you are worth or are worthy of", she feels. In doing so, the person may come across as difficult or hard to work with, "but we are just doing what everyone else is doing", she added.

Zendaya also opened up about feeling stuck and alone after gaining fame through Disney shows like Shake It Up and K.C. Undercover. The Euphoria actress began working on Disney shows when she was 13. She was never without a job back then. However, after finishing her Disney show, she suddenly stopped getting offers and had no idea what to do next. She felt stagnant; Zendaya felt that she could do more work because she has been doing the same thing for a long time and the public does not know who she is. Zendaya didn't feel connected until she got Euphoria which landed the month before I was supposed to do Spider-Man: No Way Home, the actress recalled.
