Zendaya is proving once again that she’s one of the most down to earth celebs in the game--this time by opening up about her anxiety issues on her website.
Zendaya took to her website and app to share her struggles with anxiety, writing QUOTE, “I used to struggle with anxiety pretty bad. It only happened when I sang live, not when I danced or did any other live performances, and it stemmed from a bad experience I had while singing on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in 2013.”
She went on to explain that a technical glitch caused that performance to go awry, and since it was one of her first live TV performances ever, it had a huge impact on her confidence. She wrote of the experience QUOTE, “My mic pack went out and I had to perform my song ‘Replay’ even though I couldn’t hear anything in my in-ear monitor. It wasn’t my best performance and I’ve never let myself live that down. I had mad anxiety ever since that.”
Not being able to hear yourself while singing on such a huge platform would be terrifying for any seasoned artist, yet alone and artist making one of her first live TV singing debuts! But luckily, Zendaya persevered and found a way to deal with the stress and anxiety caused by the incident. She explained how she powered through and coped with the anxiety, writing QUOTE, “I’ve tried focusing my energy on other things, like making movies. And I took my time and slowly built my confidence back up before I went back out on stage to sing live.”
And when the time came for Zendaya to sing live once again for a performance of “Let Me Love You” on the show Greatest Hits last year, she totally nailed it. She recalled feeling much better about that experience in her post, writing QUOTE, “It was still a little nerve-wracking, but it was cool.”
Zendaya finished out the post with some advice for others dealing with anxiety, suggesting that sometimes you just have to QUOTE, “take a step back so things stop stressin’ you”. That’s definitely sound advice for anyone dealing with stress or anxiety of any kind, so kudos to Zendaya for using her own struggles to help others. So we’ll just add this to the already very long list of reasons why she’s one of our all time faves.
