Zendaya: 'Inspiring Celine Dion's style transformation is surreal'

Written by . Published: July 22 2016

Singer and actress Zendaya cannot believe she has inspired Celine Dion's latest style transformation.


The My Heart Will Go On singer stunned onlookers during Paris Fashion Week earlier this month (Jul16) in a series of super stylish designer ensembles, featuring luxury brands including Lanvin, Dior and Fendi.


It was subsequently revealed the 48-year-old had hired stylist Law Roach to give her a fashion makeover, after being inspired by Zendaya's sophisticated red carpet looks and discovering Law had been working with the 19-year-old for years.


"That was crazy!" Zendaya told PeopleStyle, when asked about the moment Law received the call from the legendary singer. "I think it was a big moment for Law and I. First of all, just to know that she knows my name is crazy. Also, she slays my life. We both were freaking out and we were both just like, 'This is nuts.'


"She is goals (sic). So for her to recognize me from fashion because of what he did and what we've done together, it was a very surreal awesome moment for both of us."


While some people may question why a woman nearly three decades older than Zendaya would want to dress in a similar fashion, Law explained the stars have more in common than you would think.


"They are so much alike that it's crazy," he said. "Outside of being tall and having a nice body, they're both fearless and I was really surprised."


Floored by her mentor and friend's comments, Zendaya gushed, "It's awesome to be compared to people like Celine Dion. But I think if Law says it, it must be true, right? He keeps it real. If he says in some way I'm like Celine Dion then that's crazy."
