I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but if you’ve been dying to see Zendaya still in her iconic lit-up Cinderella gown at the 2022 Met Gala, you’re going to have to keep waiting… at least another year.

On April 20, Zendaya confirmed that she will not be attending the biggest fashion event of the year due to scheduling conflicts. I hate to disappoint my fans here, but I’ll be working, the actress told Extra during an interview on the red carpet at a Euphoria For Your Consideration event. Sporting an incredibly chic Fear of God outfit with an oversized blazer, Zendaya continued: ‘Your girl has to work and do some movies, so I wish you all the best. I’ll be playing tennis… but I’ll be back eventually,’ and she added: ‘I’ll continue to deliver in other ways.’

Based on the tennis commentary, it appears that the Hollywood actress will be filming her upcoming romantic drama, Challengers. Zendaya will play Tashi, ‘a tennis player turned coach’ who pressures her husband Art (Mike Faist), to compete against her former best friend and former boyfriend ( Josh O’Connor ) in a Challenger tennis pro circuit tournament. lower level.

It seems that fans haven’t been reassured by the promise of future spectacular red carpet moments, especially considering that Zendaya skipped the 2021 Met Gala, which was held last September while filming the second season of Euphoria.

Responses to Extra’s interview ranged from ‘add to my villain origin story’ to ‘Zendaya stop this unfunny prank’, though the vast majority of responses suggested that she ‘cancel’ the Met Gala until her favorite can attend.

‘Without Zendaya at the Met Gala 2 years in a row? What has the world come to?’ one fan lamented.

Fortunately, Zendaya may have found a way to make it up to fans. In another clip, he was asked by Extra host and former Bachelorette Rachel Lindsay about a possible appearance by Tom Holland in the third season of Euphoria. The Spider-Man actor has been ‘applying’ for a role in the hit HBO series His Girlfriend for ‘a long time’.

‘Who knows,’ he replied. ‘I’ll ask Sam [Levinson]. I’ll see what he has in store for us.’ Promise?
