In a delightful revelation, Zendaya, the acclaimed “Dune” star and girlfriend to Tom Holland, has challenged Holland’s self-perception, insisting that he possesses ample charisma, despite his doubts.
In an interview with Buzzfeed, Zendaya affectionately disputed Holland’s claim that he lacks “rizz,” a term synonymous with charisma. Contrary to Holland’s assessment, Zendaya proclaimed, “I think someone who has beautiful charisma… is Mr. Tom Holland,” offering a rare insight into their relationship dynamics.
Zendaya further elaborated, admitting her own shyness and quiet demeanor, contrasting with Holland’s effortless ability to engage with people. “It takes a little bit more to pull me out of my shell, but he’s great at just talking to people and getting to know people,” she disclosed, highlighting Holland’s natural charm.
The couple’s romantic journey, which began in 2017, has largely been shielded from the public eye. However, glimpses into their bond occasionally surface through interviews and social media posts.
Holland, on the other hand, humbly acknowledged his perceived limitations in the charisma department during a separate Buzzfeed interview in June. Despite his on-screen portrayals of charm, he confessed to feeling “limited” in real life, attributing any charisma to his scripted romances. Yet, he expressed contentment in his relationship with Zendaya, indicating that his affection for her transcends the need for overt charisma.
Zendaya, however, remains steadfast in her admiration for Holland, asserting that his charm comes naturally. “He’s got that natural gift,” she affirmed, suggesting that Holland’s charisma effortlessly captivates those around him.
