Earlier this month, the former Disney child star was even added to the Oscars voting committee – a rare honour for someone so young. Yet the star – full name Zendaya Maree Stoermer Coleman – grew up a world away from the glitz and ­glamour of Tinseltown. Zendaya said: “Everything has been a climb, and I’ve been able to take my family and friends with me. But while other young Disney stars went off the rails – ­including Lindsay Lohan, Mischa Barton, Shia LeBeouf, and Miley Cyrus – Zendaya is known in the ­industry for her level head. In her Disney days she ­released several singles and an album and sang with Zac Efron in The Greatest Showman.
