Zendaya met with shocking reactions from fans after debuting a brand new look for an interstellar mission.
Tom Holland’s fiancée was tapped to pose for a footwear brand’s new fashion campaign, rocking a striking makeover that left her almost unrecognisable.
For the sci-fi themed advertisement, the Spider-Man: Homecoming actress went for a bold hairdo decision, marking one of her shortest till date.
The Challengers actress flaunted a choppy pixie cut. She further drew more attention to her new appearance with pointy prosthetic alien-like ears.
As her photos from the promotional campaign hit the internet, some fans loved the edgy new hairstyle, while others weren’t as impressed with the transformation.
"I’m boutta get a bowl cut again," one excited fan wrote, and some praised the Dune star, saying, "Cool," "beautiful," "perfect."
"Zendaya is just built different. always serving looks!" another chimed in with a fire emoji.
Meanwhile, some netizens didn’t hesitate to express their hate, flooding a post with rude comments whose caption read "Zendaya stuns for On."
"No, she doesn’t. She looks like a monkey alien," one X (formerly Twitter) user wrote.
"Stun? LOL," another added.
"Keep this chimp off my timeline," a third commented.
In the wake of such remarks, Zendaya chose not to engage with the social media users, but they were surely catered with befitting responses by her admirers.
