Zendaya's Secret Talent | Challengers Cast Comp | The Graham Norton Show

Like back in the day, it's been a few years since we last saw you, yeah, I was the greatest shman, yeah, I was the greatest

show

man, yeah, and should we say congratulations, Euphoria, you're an Emmy, right, I know , and that was the right kind of blocking. Lock them up, so where were you? It was in my living room, okay, it was in my living room and it was, um, it was actually very special because I think if it hadn't been done that way that year, I wouldn't have been able to. I have my whole family with me so I did it in my living room and there's my family my dad there's my mom back there you can't see it in this photo but her face is like that like she's so cute my nieces my little niece my dog ​​runs out of them under the table when everyone starts screaming um it was uh it was really really special so I was able to share it with them and I couldn't imagine doing it any other way and if I had done it like in a real audience like This in front of everyone I would have done it, I probably would have vomited, I don't know what I would have done, I was very nervous, but this was not the place, so what must be five? nominees yes, I think so, five nominees for best actress in a drama yes, um, but there was someone outside everyone's house, yes, in a hasm suit that looked like a tuxedo, it was actually very cute, um, but it What's not nice is that everyone, regardless of all the nominees, someone would be in front of their house in the hmat suit with an Emmy and if yes, so and if you didn't get it, they would just tell you that you are doing a lot of press from home.

Do you have to do that? pretend like you like it or it's just you just we we're doing I mean, Emma and I are trying to make our flats look even more glamorous, they probably actually are um someone commented the other day that we were. We were doing a kind of zoom with several journalists and I think on one call I thought it was a different journalist each time, but I was wrong because there was a call where he left my flowers or right behind me and I thought during the call he should have been thinking about the interview I was thinking it wasn't quite right scrolling to the right and then I moved it and then the journalist picked it up and made me look like shit during the call I changed it during the call Yeah, so she's wondering why the interview I was talking.

The thing is that the interview was talking to Emma and so on the Zoom com screen. I think she can't see me, I think, and then I'm putting it on the back burner. Yes, it is very embarrassing. It's just that you were flexible and you did the trapeze. There was a time when I think you tried too hard. It was in front of Hugh. Okay, look, this is what happened. Let me set the record straight, literally, so here's the story, literally. so we were doing, I'm not going to name the person because it's embarrassing, okay, the point is we're doing a stunt in front of Hugh Jackman.

Now I have very few scenes with Hugh Jackman and he was very, very nervous. wasn't you weren't and um I was in my you know my name because this is huge acman I don't want to ruin it so we're doing this this this this where I'm basically in the air and I spin down and they catch me and I heard a fart now wait We all heard the fart all of us now as a professional I was going to continue it wasn't me I just want to clarify right here right now it's not me so the other person is laughing, okay, he's laughing and Hugh is laughing.

I'm like, okay, let's pretend it didn't happen, we're going to laugh about it and what happened was the person who was a grown man blamed me. Yeah, oh, so you thought I farted, but the crazy thing I would never do, nobody thought it was you, nobody, no, listen, let me tell you something, yeah, if I ever farted in front of you, yeah , it would definitely be silent but deadly. never ever audibly never audibly you know what I'm saying I'm a lady, you're, I mean, no, but you have an old school hobby, so you knit, but you do more than knit.

I tried to start a new hobby while we were filming Spider. -Man, I have one of those, I don't know if you have them, but they are like little rugs that you can make and basically, thread by thread, you put the thing together and the color coordinates so that you like something. I chose puppies, okay? and I got like four squares and I thought I was done with this, this is too tedious for me, so I got like a little corner of a rug, but that's it, but who taught you how to knit? My mom taught me. to knit all I can make is a scarf, so I'm not like, you know, I can't get you one.

I can't give you a sweater or a vest or anything, but I'll buy you a nice thick warm scarf, which is what I made for everyone, okay, they're good, I mean, I loved it as a hobby. I usually like little tedious activities, things that I can keep, you know, keep your brain busy and, um, yeah, I would. I only made scarves for everyone because I couldn't. I thought, what am I going to get everyone for Christmas? I thought, I'll make them a scarf, that's what I'm doing all day, whether you like it or not, we've been doing the most intense fight scenes on set and you.

He used to come and see many times, yes, and I was there. He came and had blood all over his face. I've been fighting the Leprechaun and I turn around and you're just there knitting, how are you doing? Yeah, it's Well, but now Josh Josh, you were the guy, so I went to drama school and when you go to drama school you get this list of things you need, the equipment you need and no one understood it, he got everything, you got the whole dance. You have all the dance stuff, right? I like, I like Graeme, so yeah, you get a list at drama school, um, and yeah, I mean, there are things like, uh, a man, man's thong, um, and you need to call it a belt dance. my day, yeah, dance belt, I think I think it was in my day, so um, so, a dance belt, men's thong and uh, stockings and Little Jazz, you know what size you take, and the first day, the problem was that I had never danced and, uh, quite a few kids, there were only seven of us, I think in our year, and the other six had danced quite a bit, so we were in the locker room and um.

I don't remember who and I'm not going to name them on the Gram Norton Show, but one of them said, well, Josh, you know you know when you put on stockings you obviously shave your legs before it's obvious and I. It was like, oh right, yeah, no, obviously, yeah, but I don't have a razor and then they said, "Well, don't worry, don't worry, we have this cream that burns the hairs, so you know, hair removal cream." . I started punching and, you know, I started punching and I noticed some people were laughing and I was watching them laugh and then I realized that everyone else's legs were hairy, so during the first quarter at school theater I had one. hairy leg and one and from in your story I love it, I mean, I'm kind of in awe of what your parents did for you.

I mean, how old were you when your parents said totally okay, we'll support you in your career no, I was pretty young, I'm, I'm again, I'm very grateful because they, um, I had this dream and I wanted to pursue it and I had parents who were totally willing to support him and my parents. They're teachers, so my dad at that point basically became my stage dad, you know, and he would drive me back and forth from you, I mean, no. I don't know how many people know California very well, but that's how it was. like an eight-hour drive from where I'm from to Los Angeles, so we drove back and forth during the week sometimes for, you know, auditions, callbacks, whatever, until it was actually pretty quick that I got my Disney

show

when I had a kid, so it's been kind of a slow growth, you know, luckily I didn't have it.

I had a good protection system around me, my family, my brothers and sisters, we are talking about siblings, but they are all older than me, there are no fights in the house. I was basically an only child, cool, but you know, I have a great support system, so I let you know I got all the protection I needed and then as I got older, I was able to do it nice, nice, slow and nice and steady. In terms of trap skills, I mean, do you still have them? So if, for example, there was a Three, could you just take off your shoes, get on something, and go crazy? um, you know, I didn't really wear my You're wearing the outfit today uh, the heels are a little difficult oh, okay, it's a no, I mean, oh, is it a yes, maybe, guys, no?

I hate to disappoint people, but I don't have my team of specialists here and I do it. I don't want to get hurt, we have oh no, we have you guys, I don't know what, thank you very much, yeah, all I can do is move my ears, you see, we're excited, oh, oh, oh, you're really doing it . oh it's legit, oh she's doing it, it's awesome, well done, thank you, yes.
