Course Zendaya Fell For Tom Holland In Drag

Course Zendaya Fell For Tom Holland In Drag is being revisited as media outlets circulate a 2017 moment from Lip Sync Battle. The story centers on Zendaya watching Tom Holland perform Rihanna’s “Umbrella,” with Holland wearing a bob and Zendaya observing nearby. A source close to Zendaya, who stars in Euphoria, says it was “the very moment” Zendaya began developing feelings for him. The article frames the incident through a queer lens, arguing that drag-like performance can challenge rigid gender expectations. It also points to wider influencer trends that promote hyper-masculinity across platforms such as TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube. The outlet ties the continued resonance of drag to self-expression, even as it notes Holland is a straight actor.
