About this video

Perhaps no teen star has had a more stunning transition than Zendaya Coleman... so much so that she doesn't even need a last name anymore! From the plucky star of Disney channel shows like "Shake It Up" and "KC Undercover" to critically-acclaimed actress and red carpet fashion icon, we here at Young Hollywood have watched Zendaya blossom from a rosebud to an entire rose bush! We take a look back at some of our favorite moments with the multi-talented star, including visits to the sets of her Disney series "Shake It Up" and "KC Undercover", catching up with her on the red carpet at Radio Disney's VIP Birthday bash, and even a visit to our very own Young Hollywood Studio! We can't wait to see what the new year brings for this gorgeous gal!

Zendaya

Oh yeah, for sure. This is my very first TV show. So it's kind of like a dream almost and like to see my face on those on those posters out there is kinda crazy.

Young Hollywood

I mean, you didn't just land any role. You are one of the leads in Shake it Up. Amazing! How did you feel when you got that call?

Zendaya

Um I think this this was my reaction right here. I I didn't say anything and my dad kinda looked at me like, "Are you alright?" You know, 'cause I didn't say anything. I didn't know what to say. It's like such a shock and it was really cool and I I I didn't know what to say. I was speechless.

Young Hollywood

Over here are kitchen. You know, it's like MTV Cribs where you like open it up and it's like, "What's in your what's in your refrigerator?" Yeah, so what is in your refrigerator?

Zendaya

Nothing! Nothing! This is our cute little baby pictures up here. We got me and Camille.

Young Hollywood

Baller. Oh my Look at that Baller. Yeah. Look at that face. What is that mug doing? I'd Currently I'm angry about something. Let's talk about fashion 'cause you're like I mean, you're pretty much a style icon at this point. So how do you keep it up, though? Like you have wigs, you have like crazy different looks all the time.

Zendaya

My me and my stylist Law, we just kinda have fun. We're not really I'm not afraid of anything. I don't really care what like other people necessarily say or think about what I wear. If I like it, I like it and I'm gonna wear it. So I just have fun. Like I think fashion's definitely not something to be afraid of. It's something to play with and enjoy and experiment with. I just find myself doing random stuff like cleaning my room, which is something I never do. You know I'm bored when I start cleaning my room or I sleep.

Young Hollywood

What do you think is more difficult, dancing or acting?

Zendaya

Oh man, I'd say neither. Just because I think it's something that I try my best at and you know, it can't be hard if you go 100% and you just do it what you can.
