Zendaya Reacts to Being Called an Activist: 'It's Nice, But I'm Not'

Zendaya is on the cover of Vogue‘s June 2019 issue, out nationwide on May 21.

Here’s what the 22-year-old Euphoria actress had to say…

On her dream roles: “I definitely want more work by young black artists, and I wouldn’t mind playing Angela Davis in a movie one day.”

On being called an activist: “It’s nice, but I’m not. What I’d really like is to reach out to my peers in the Bay Area. Like, there are kids I was in elementary school with, who are out there doing the work. Organizing. Maybe they can help me figure out what to do.”

On the stars she finds interesting: “I can tell you, one celebrity whose career I think is interesting is Donald Glover. He’s given himself permission to do…whatever. And whatever he does—he goes deep, you know?”
