Zendaya Is Euphoric, Enjoy As Much Of Her As Possible

April 9, 2021,

As new stars are born, exploding at a tender age, for those of us who are older, they make us wish that our lives could be extended.

What they have to offer is incredible.

And only just beginning.

Will they reach their apex long after we are gone?

Possibly. If so, then we want to enjoy them to the full while we are here.

Singer and actress extraordinaire Zendaya has an incredibly bright future ahead of her and given her mind blowing performance in HBO’s David Lynch styled teenage angst and sex driven masterpiece Euphoria, we going to try and watch as much of her work as possible.

While we are still here.

In case you didn’t know but need to catch up with, Zendaya Maree Stoermer Coleman famously known as Zendaya, is an American actress and singer.

She began her career as a child model and backup dancer, before gaining prominence for her role as Rocky Blue on the Disney Channel sitcom Shake It Up (2010–2013).

In 2013, Zendaya was a contestant on the sixteenth season of the competition series Dancing with the Stars.

From 2015 to 2018, she produced and starred as K.C. Cooper in the sitcom K.C. Undercover.

Her film roles include supporting parts in the musical drama The Greatest Showman (2017) and the superhero films Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017) and Spider-Man: Far from Home (2019).

Popularity follows her.

You know you’ve seen her before. And before that too.

But where?

On top of the world, that’s where.

But at the tender age of 24, where do you go from there? Up, up and away?

To greater stardom of course.

As a singer too.

Zendaya began her career in music by recording songs independently and releasing the singles “Swag It Out” and “Watch Me” in 2011, the latter a collaboration with Bella Thorne.

She signed with Hollywood Records in 2012 and later released her debut single, “Replay“, which reached number 40 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the United States. In 2013, her self-titled debut studio album debuted at number 51 on the Billboard 200 chart.

“Rewrite the Stars“, taken from the soundtrack to The Greatest Showman, was released as a single in 2018. It reached the top twenty of the UK and Australian national charts and was certified platinum in the UK and US and double platinum in Australia.

Did we say that she is only 24? We’re going to verify that. Yep. It’s a fact.

Why couldn’t we figure this out at 24? We were sweating just finishing college, ecstatic to get C’s.

Oh well. That’s why Zendaya is a star. Not an ordinary bone in her body.

Taking the lead role in Euphoria by the pipe, needle and pills galore, we knew that we were in for a wild youthful ride.

By the way, she yells at her mother a lot. Curses her out too.

Has a drug dealer with a gun for a very close friend. He’s actually the good guy in the story until he beats up a wealthy middle aged man in front of his son to steal his money.

Oh well. As the expression goes, nobody is perfect. Even brooding big brother type drug dealers.

It is a series that made theguardian.com blush and that’s not easy. In reviewing the Zendaya led vehicle that share, “Few new series have achieved such notoriety with quite the same speed as Euphoria (Sky Atlantic), the teen-populated US drama that is so explicit in its weary portrait of drug use and sex that it makes Skins look positively Victorian.”

True that. Please speak on.

They add, “Early on it brims with pills, drink, apps, erect penises, loving sex, cruel sex and nude pics, ever present and lurking, but horrifyingly casual, as if they are an inexorable part of these particular fictional, middle-class, suburban teenagers’ existences.”

Are you blushing yet? Do you need to take a deep breath? Without inhaling.

Don’t get too worried.

In between the rough sex, drug binging, alcohol chugging, online porn and group therapy meetings, they do what teens have done for decades.

Eat pizza.

Scream at their parents.

Play high school football.

Scream at their parents.

Not many with part-time jobs.

They spend a lot of their parent’s money, when they are not screaming at them.

And they dance too.

Yay. Boogie woogie.

Then afterwards they scream at their parents and tell their single or divorced mother’s new boyfriends to go…BEEEEEEEEP!

Back to the dance scenes.

HBO’s Euphoria dance scenes are a mix of David Lynch of Twin Peaks and Mulholland Drive fame, a little of Bob Fosse leading All That Jazz and a boom, boom or Urban Hip Hop in a photographic blender.

Speaking of Bob Fosse, at least Roy Scheider’s version, they smoke a lot of cigarettes and blow smoke into the air.

Oh, there’s a lot of sex too. We already mentioned that right?

And this is a film about teens. Right? In the suburbs. Have to be, because they have money, lots of time on their hands for sex but they never seem to work at a job.

Parents like to think that other parent’s teens are having sex. Not theirs. These parents are different. They know their teens are having sex. How do they know?

Because they are having sex with them.

Some of the time?

A lot of the time.

Good thing there is a principal at the school. Who doesn’t want to get sued. He tends to choose his words very carefully before the teen being questioned for wrong doing tells him to…BEEEEEEEEP!

So who do you pick to propel this juxtaposition of zig zagging storylines filled with drugs, anger, no make that rage and kinky eroticism.

You pick Zendaya.

Hey wait, isn’t she a singer?

Yes, and an extremely good one at that.

Hey wait, wasn’t she a Disney kid?

True, but one day even Disney kids have to grow up.

And have sex.

We know. It is all so confusing. But then so is Euphoria. A brilliant confusing. The same material in pedestrian hands would warrant a quick channel exit.

Not Euphoria.

It’s hard to keep up but you must keep trying. It is worth the car wreck and train ride ahead of you. Do not unfasten your seat belt, even if the overhead sign encourages you to do so.

Hold on to your ticket because you are not going to want to get off anytime soon.

Pressing the button on the blender to full blast, Zendaya is the quiet petrol that is sometimes high octane and other times resemble trance inducing fumes to be slowly inhaled.

Her character does a lot of inhaling and medicinal incoming.

Yes. You should duck.

This HBO artistic bold bombastic bopper bash is so entrancing that you never want it to end as you watch in the dark.

You should only watch this in the dark. Lights off. Windows covered.

We were sad to see it come to an end.
