Zendaya Smacks Down Twitter Troll, Offers His Target a Modeling Contract

Zendaya Smacks Down Twitter Troll, Offers His Target a Modeling Contract
The Hollywood Gossip

Social media is glutted with memes, jokes and sometimes blunt criticism about how women present themselves online.

This relentless commentary about "false advertising" is overdone, not particularly clever and, at worst, pretty damn hurtful. However, they keep going around, and Twitter user Eskimo Jay (who doesn't get a link to his profile, because he's kind of a jerk) recently tried to make his own contribution to this trend.

I imagined he expected some likes, some retweets saying things like "You know that's right" and then for it to fade into obscurity like every other joke like this. One thing he did not count on was singer, actress, and part-time Twitter avenger Zendaya seeing it and saying, "NOT ON MY WATCH, DAMMIT."


Zendaya not only shut this man right down, she asked her followers for help in finding the woman pictured above. The reason? Zendaya, who recently launched a clothing line aimed at "all ages, shapes and nationalities," had a modeling contract for her.


She asked, and her followers delivered. The woman in the photos was soon identified as Twitter user honey dip, who, needless to say, was astonished at Zendaya's offer.


I hope everything works out for both of them. To everyone who's been the target of a "false advertising" joke, in the words of Zendaya, "slay on, queen."

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
