Zendaya Learned To Pose Watching America’s Next Top Model (13/22)

Zendaya, the multi-talented actress and fashion icon, has admitted that one of her biggest sources of inspiration for learning how to pose in front of the camera came from none other than America’s Next Top Model (ANTM). Growing up, Zendaya was an avid fan of the show, which was hosted by Tyra Banks and featured aspiring models competing for a chance at stardom.

In an interview, Zendaya revealed that she would watch the show and closely study how the contestants posed during photo shoots, paying attention to the little details of body language, angles, and facial expressions. She didn’t have formal training in modeling, so ANTM became a kind of “masterclass” for her in how to present herself on camera—something that later helped her own modeling and red carpet appearances.

Her keen observational skills clearly paid off. Zendaya’s confidence and poise on the red carpet have made her a fashion darling, and she’s often praised for her ability to work the camera and showcase high-fashion looks effortlessly. It’s a perfect example of how someone can take inspiration from unexpected places, and Zendaya’s story shows how she turned watching a reality TV competition into a stepping stone for mastering her own public persona.

So, while Zendaya may not have walked the runways as a model (at least not yet), her modeling “education” came from the very same place that gave us Tyra’s famous “smizing” technique—and it’s clear that she’s learned the lessons well.
