Zendaya turns 29 on September 1, 2025. See photos of the icon from the early years of her career to now!
Zendaya has transformed effortlessly from Disney starlet to Hollywood heavyweight, and she’s probably just getting started. The fashion icon, actress and model got her start on Disney in the series Shake It Up and K.C. Undercover. As the years went by, she transitioned to music in the mid-2010s, but set her sights on major Hollywood projects after a short period of time.
The actress and singer made waves in 2017 when she starred in the films Spider-Man: Homecoming and The Greatest Showman, the latter of which showed off Zendaya’s acting and singing talent. She went on to reprise her role of MJ in the 2019 Spider-Man sequel, Spider-Man: Far From Home, but her most dramatic role and Emmy Award-winning performance came on the small screen. Zendaya leads the cast of the HBO series Euphoria, where she plays Rue Bennett.
