'Shy' But Then 'You Put This Thing On'

Speaking on The Jennifer Hudson Show earlier this year, Zendaya revealed how much method dressing has boosted her confidence. I’m a naturally shy person, so fashion allows me [to express myself],” she shared, adding: "You put this thing on, and I’m this woman, I can come out, and I’m Zendaya now."

Of method dressing, the Hollywood favorite continued: “It’s so fun when you have such rich references in the films already to just play and have fun and experiment with that."
