Zendaya in London
Zandaya in london.
Transcript
00:00Zendaya has turned pure West London of the Lendo girl.
00:03Zendaya is, for the first time in what seems like a lifetime, not promoting a film, and a 24 series, or some kind of paid partnership with a water brand.
00:13The actor is, instead, laying down roots in West London, where she shares a hall with boyfriend Tom Holland,
00:19and has been spotted enjoying normal person things, like eating stone-fired pizzas,
00:24in local gastropubs, dog-walking through Richmond Park, and shopping at the Waitrose in New Malden.
00:30It is a strange thing to watch one of the world's most famous women experience the unremarkable pleasures of your own hometown.
00:36Take, for example, this weekend, when Zendaya was photographed cruising the stalls at Notting Hill Market in a cropped gold tank top,
00:44studio nickels and slacks, knitted buttock-up and knitted ballerinas, and a diminutive Louis Vuitton bag.
00:51The only thing more West London than that specific combination of items was the opalinga, a dilly-turned-Aryan-style status symbol shopping bag she sported alongside them.
01:02As this magazine's arts and lifestyle editor, Hayley Maitman, noted,
01:08Zendaya is one sausage roll away from becoming an honorary Brit.
01:12There have been trips to Hampton Court Palace, the erstwhile home of Henry VIII and his ill-fated wives,
01:18run-of-the-mill bales, trips that have, of course, ended up as tabloid fodder,
01:23and numerous evenings spent in the West End.
01:25And there will doubtless be even more Zendaya sightings to come,
01:29with Holland starring in Jamie Lloyd's Romeo and Juliet until August.
01:34I could not be more proud.
01:36Zendaya set up her boyfriend's tabloid role back in April.
01:40I'm going to try to see as many shows as I possibly can.
