Zendaya, the Emmy-winning star of the hit HBO series Euphoria, just gained some serious respect from fans far and wide with her deft answer to an interview question that was packed with some implicit biases.

Without skipping a beat, Zendaya untangled the question to make her own answer an inclusive, supportive statement of LGBTQ people and their sexuality.


As Pink News reported, Zendaya's heads-up response came when she participated in Vanity Fair's "Proust Questionnaire," a video series in which the magazine asked several Hollywood stars 35 deep-diving questions about their lives and relationships.

Zendaya, charming as ever, plowed through the first 11 questions until she hit number 12, when the interviewer asked which quality she "likes most in a man?"

That one gave Zendaya pause:

"I most like in a person, how about that?"

She then moved on to her answer.

"What is the quality I most like in someone?"
"Some people are just good people, and you can feel it," she added. "I don't know how to explain that, but there's this little spark that they have or this little special thing that they have that just feel safe and happy around them."

See the exchange below.

In an apparent attempt to recover, the interviewer then asked Zendaya specifically what qualities she liked in a woman.

Zendaya simply said her answer wouldn't change.

People on Twitter rejoiced upon seeing the 24-year-old's graceful act of inclusion.





Others enjoyed celebrating the moment as Zendaya's indication of her own sexuality.

There is no confirmation of that, but Twitter can dream.



It may have just been one brief exchange in one interview of many, but enough moments of quick thinking advocacy like Zendaya's might make questions like that come out with different wording the first time around.

Lee claimed in his proposal that there is an "extensive process for interested parties like States and local governments to nominate land for disposal to meet housing and community needs," noting that it specifically exempts national parks, monuments, and federally designated wilderness areas from potential land sales.

Trump Ripped For Complaining That Americans Get 'Too Many' Federal Holidays Off Work

While it was ultimately former President Joe Biden who established Juneteenth as a federal holiday, President Donald Trump—who once campaigned on that promise—took to Truth Social on Juneteenth to whine about the number of "non-working holidays" Americans get, claiming that it costs businesses "billions of dollars."

Juneteenth is derived from June 19, 1865, when Union troops led by General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas, and declared that all enslaved African Americans in the state were free.

TikToker @cassdamm, who previously went viral for sharing the unhinged, five-page letter her 15-year-old son's principal sent, complaining about him "wandering the halls" and "being truant" for buying a drink on his way back to class, is openly celebrating the death of her father, but it's not for the reason you'd think.

Woman Sparks Debate About What Color Her Furniture Is—Only To Discover She's Colorblind

We've all heard the saying that there's no way of knowing everything that you don't know until you're faced with it directly. For some people, that could even be the color of the world around them.

Even though she wasn't charging anything for it, the woman who was interested in it continued to inquire for more photos and to know more about the color of the couch.
