Zendaya is a gift from the universe, and if anything proves it, it’s tonight’s MTV Movie Awards. She came from Disney fame, much like Selena Gomez and Miley Cyrus, only to eclipse into actual stardom just like they did. She debuted in a way as part of Taylor Swift’s semi-dreaded girl squad, a collection of women who, in my opinion, Swift picked out to fame-mother and to keep close so they wouldn’t become more famous than her. But since Swift’s hiatus, all of the women she groomed — of whom Gigi Hadid and Gomez are two — have blossomed. (Take that as a lesson, girls).

Tonight, Zendaya premiered a clip of her upcoming movie Spider-Man: Homecoming, and it’s sure to be the beginning of her star rising. Without too may acclaimed credits to her name, she turns heads on every red carpet, including the recent Met Ball. Not only did she slay, she made a slaying statement on natural hair. Hell yes.
You are an absolute goddess, @Zendaya. #MTVAwardspic.twitter.com/VS0TvpU2FP

They’re woke, online and poised to usher us into a new era of good fashion and politics, and we’re here for it.
