Zendaya in a street style look to go to a special screening of her movie Challengers.
The "I told ya"-Shirt Zendaya is seen wearing is also worn by her character Tashi in the movie. Jonathan Anderson, the costume designer for the movie and head of Loewe and J.W.Anderson, and Josh O'Connor the costar in the movie were also seen sporting this short for the press tour.
It is a reference to JFK Jr. (JFK's son or "John John") wearing a shirt that said "I told ya" while playing frisbee...it seems to be unclear as to what his shirt is referring to or if it was just a shirt in the end...
Jonathan Anderson is really good at telling the movie story through design and creating iconic looks - here referencing the filming location and time.

Drop the review bestie
I’ve had the longest day of my life (one train two busses two taxis over 7 hours of travelling in total) so if this is disjointed please remember……….i am not Roger ebert I’m just saying shit
Spoilers for challengers below
🎾🎾🎾🎾🎾🎾🎾the movies are back and they’re about melodramatic biblical level threesomes framed by insane musical stings🎾🎾🎾🎾🎾🎾🎾
So I’m what you might call a Luca guadagnino Guy except I straight up didn’t give a fuck about call me by your name (two leads I would actively mow down in my car) but anyway he made this film and it felt like fully being given a swirly in the best way. They strapped a gopro to them tennis balls. That bone break was straight out of suspiria (speaking of, apparently not that many people fuck with his suspiria as i thought? and theyre all wrong LOL)
Anyway I’m taking such good care of my two little white boys WE NEED. To talk about Tashi Duncan. I was listening to the podcast keep it and one of the hosts Ira was like, oh I kind of wanted to see her become a little more unhinged but honestly I DISAGREE because the beauty of Tashi is her veneer of calm over the burn of her rage—you see the veneer crack when she slaps Patrick, when she spits at Patrick, when she yells that iconic COME ON!!!! I truly think she’s perfect and it made me realize that I always want to write women just as mean as her (Lacy Doevski at full power) but I’m afraid to a little bit! Tashi ‘you’d have a better shot with a handgun in your mouth’ Duncan, you are everything to me. Zendaya best actress.
The boys were good also but all I came out of that film thinking about was Tashi. My thoughts on their whole dynamic is much the same as everyone else’s—shit’s JUICY as FUCK thank god, but no one is a hero and no one is a villain here and if you’re looking at it through that lens you’re missing the point
I also love the fact that every single one of them are fucking losers in some way
The people yearn for EDM scores. Felt like I was on uppers during every part of the match
Anyway tennis is about sex and sex is about power and power is about tennis and if you’re going to see this film you need to watch it in a FUCKING THEATER, I’m so glad I waited. I bet the rewatchability factor on this goes crazy

Also I saw footage of Taylor Swift playing tennis 🎾👟👗and drinking at a Tiki hut 🛖 🍸on the beach 🏖️ 🌊🩱and sewing clothes 👚👕and making cinnamon rolls 🥮🥧🍪, so those are all on my bucket list now!!! It was playing to Fortnight in the background. Tennis and golf are so bougie though honestly. Not that I mind. I wonder what started tenniscore. It was hype with the royal family because of Wimbledon and I made a tennis board a long time ago but I didn’t know it was a trend. It’s becoming popular because of Zendaya but my dad is a long time tennis fan and my brother is really good because he took the lessons seriously.

Just saw Challenger 🎾
Mike and Josh are really my type. They are incredible and so different from what they are in real life (from what I know). And I think that how you can see a good actor. I just know Josh from The Crown and it is so different. He plays his role of the charming poor little guy very well.
All characters are not lovable at all but it didn’t make me less admire the performances.
Zendaya shines of course.
I recognised a bit of Rue and a bit of herself in this role and a lot of Tashi which is so complex. I completely don’t understand her choices.
The film making was a bit too much sometimes.
The last scene was 🤯. I love the shot where you can see the sky and tennis players from above.
I’m a little disappointed that the soundtrack was not like in the trailer but it still was good and original.

For Zendaya’s latest appearance in Rome, she wore a custom Loewe look that put an electric twist on the tennis dress. Zendaya’s custom pair of pointy cotton-colored heels with fluorescent tennis balls skewered onto the stilettos were the grand slam of her outfit. 🎾

Tom was seen by a fan today. He was with his team, his acting coach is in the background of the photo. No sign of Zendaya though possibly in Boston getting ready for day 1 of challengers which is Monday! So excited for it
Tom in NYC on Saturday! Rumors of a spotting of them yesterday. Only time will tell!
So pumped for Challengers! Can’t wait to see Z playing tennis 🎾

Zendaya at the after party (?) of the Los Angeles Challengers premiere in a neon tennis ball green custom V-neck and backless 🎾 dress by Celia Kritharioti with a literal tennis ball accent...I kinda like it, although it is so literal to the movie theme, but it's also fun and the silhouette is a tried and tested winner for her! :)
Just the make-up and hair could also be a bit more fun. Besides the red lip from the other day, her make-up is kept minimal, smokey eye, bronzer and clean make-up (minimal for red carpet events)....I get that she probably doesn't do a lot when she is wearing two different looks in one day, but it's boring like this, tbh. 🎾😌🎾 I wonder if they contemplated to wear the Loewe tennis ball shoes again :D would be kinda.over the top but also why not?!
And this is the other look from the day...Vera Wang skirt and lingerie on top..not the best choice in my opinion, although it shows the other side of Zendaya's character Tashi in this movie (being a bad ass and sexy mother?!)... :D yeah well, it looks not cohesive...

My Movie Review: "Challengers" 🎾
**Caution...May Contain Some Spoilers**
Okay okay..... Here we gooo! Another film review.... 😁🙌🏾
Y'all.... I have so much to say about this movie lol. 😅 I'll just be honest, like...I had some mixed feelings about this one!
Okay, so first of all.... I had a great time going to see this movie. My girlfriends and I all went to one of those theaters where you can order REAL food and alcohol, and they bring it right to your seat. 😁 We decided to treat ourselves to this one, and just have a "girl's night out" watching it.
Our little theater was quite packed too! Saw a lot of date-night couples watching this together lol. 🤭 I think I saw another group who was doing a girl's night out.
So anyway....
The movie ended up being an enjoyable rollercoaster for all of us lol. It definitely kept my attention, it wasn't boring at all, and it gave many of us several things to talk about/discuss long after the movie was over! I LOVE films that make you think, and that have you talking about it afterwards. Even if we disagree, it's just nice to see a movie like this that sparked a good discussion afterwards. 😊 Here were my Pros/Cons and random thoughts that I had during and after this movie lol....
PROS
Everyone's acting was solid in this! I already knew that Mike and Josh are stellar actors (I've seen them in other projects before, and both have done theater if I'm not mistaken), but ZENDAYA!! Zendaya babeeeee....She surprised me in this one! Dare I say it?? I think "Challengers" was her best acting job yet on the big screen. 👏🏾 She really embodied that "Bad B*itch"/Boss vibe very well imo. She was definitely believable! LOL 😅
The CINEMATOGRAPHY! Omg the cinematography in this film was so good and on point. I loved how the camera would change perspectives during a match (especially the end match) and would switch and show you the ball's pov, then the pov of the players, and whatnot. It was dizzifying switch and camera change for sure lol, but it was very creative. I honestly think that this film could be nominated for an Oscar just for the cinematography alone. 😊👍🏾
The music .... The music was a pro AND a con (more on that later) for me. It had a really hype techno beat throughout the movie, and that really helped to keep the movie hyped and show the fast-pace of the sport. I really liked it! It was catchy lol. 😅
Zendaya was GORGEOUS in this movie! I kept looking at how flawless her skin was in this. It's so rare that we get "adult" Z in her films lol, so it was just nice and refreshing to see her finally playing more of an adult in a big screen role, and seeing her be the desirable/sexy/attractive one in a film for a change. She really looked amazing in this. 😊 I'd love to see her do more roles where she's playing the object of desire. We need more woc in roles like this.
I loved the subtle ways in which Luca shows that tennis is basically like a relationship in this film. I loved that metaphor. I think the little subtle hints for the movie were quite creative, and it's one of those films where I think it would be good to watch at least twice in order to catch more of the subtleties and how the sport related to their relationships and inner dynamics throughout the film.
I LOVED that scene where Patrick and Tashi met up with each other, and it's so WINDY and wild. Just like their relationship.... Windy, unpredicatable, destructive, yet exciting... Unlike her boring relationship with her husband lol. LOVED the subtleties in this film.
I loooved seeing Zendaya in her "Bad Gal" element. Yaaass! 👏🏾 I love it! I think it's harder playing a villain or someone who's not redeeming honestly.
Hahaha I have to give a shoutout to Darnell.... Good seeing him on the screen. Glad he was able to add another big major film on the big screen to his roster lol. 😜
Zendaya's body was BODY GOALS in this film.... 🔥 Can I just say?? I was like, "Dang.... let me keep going to the gym". 👀 And then, the other thought I had was, "Shooooot....no wonder Tom came back ROTFL." 😅🤣 Lemme stop lol.
I loved the anticipation for the final match, and it really kept you on the edge of your feet lol. 😁
CONS
Now for the cons.... 👀
Was it just me?? Or, sometimes the music in this movie was a bit TOO loud Lol. For example, there was a scene where Patrick and Tashi were talking in the hotel, and the techno music is SO LOUD that I could barely even make out what they were saying (and it seemed important too). Maybe it's just me.... But at times, the music was drowning out the dialog, and I didn't like that. Anyone know what Patrick and Tashi said to each other at the hotel when the music got to be so loud lol? 😅
I STILL hate that "my little white boys" line ...UGH! It's SO CRINGGGGGE! 😫😩🙈
I definitely saw a LOT more sausage and moons than I expected to see in this movie lol... 👀 😅 I meannnnn.... Idk... Is male frontal nudity EVER really necessary?? Let's be honest lol. I honestly don't think so. I kind of wonder why it's even needed?? (I say the same thing about female frontal nudity as well). Idk, sometimes I wonder why certain directors make that choice to add that in, when it's not even necessary 9 times out of 10. I just don't like things being done gratuitously . Like, gratuitous sex scenes for example.
I'll be honest, I didn't really care too much for some of the plotlines and writing in the film.... 😬 I'll also just come right out and say it... I kind of wish that Z had done a slightly different film than this for her big-screen lead role debut. I kind of wish it weren't such an "adult" film with a ton of sexual themes and elements. I kinda wish too that Tashi was not personified in the way that she was. It's one thing to be a very determined and dedicated athlete, but another thing altogether to be the stereotypical cold, icy, attitude-having diva. I also look at this from a woc/black woman's pov as well. Part of me feels like we as Black women are so hypersexualized (and seen as "grown") , and stereotyped as having "attitudes" from such a young age, and it just makes me feel like women/female actresses shouldn't have to get naked or be overly sexualized in order to win awards or get good critical acclaim for their roles. (I read that the film Emma Stone won an Oscar for this year, "Poor Things", had a lot of sex and nudity in it as well....🥴) Don't get me wrong, I'm not a "prude", but when it comes to WOC, I just want better for us since we're already so stereotyped and stigmatized. Like, why couldn't Z's big-screen lead role debut be the Ronnie Spector Biopic film?? Or, why couldn't it be a film like "Hidden Figures" where she's playing a black female mathematician who aids in the space launch? I don't feel like you have to resort to sex or get undressed in your underwear to be taken "seriously" as a "serious actor", but maybe the meaty roles for adult women in Hollywood that don't add that in are really scarce. Anyway, that was my only gripe. 😊
RANDOM THOUGHTS & QUESTIONS
When people claimed that there wasn't any real redeeming character in this film...boyyyyy...they weren't KIDDING!!! 🤣 I don't mind characters who aren't perfect or aren't the best though, so that didn't bother me. My only question was.... Why on earth did Tashi hate Patrick so much?? Does anyone else know?? 😅 I kept waiting and waiting during the movie to see some big REVELATION of something really HORRIBLE that he did to Tashi in order to deserve the type of hate that she dished out to him, but I couldn't figure out anything?? I mean, I know they dated each other at one time when they were younger, but I don't see why she's still hating on this man in her 30's when they dated in their teens and early 20s lol. 😅 She's out here married and even has like a 6 year old kid and is STILL hating on this man.... WHY?? 😅 Can someone PLEASE explain that to me?? Cuz right now, I can only surmise that the only reason why Tashi is so mean to Patrick is because deep down, she's still attracted to him, so she has to hate on him in order to curb that HAHAHA. 🤣 Maybe I'm just a Patrick-sympathizer lol, but I can't really see how he was a bad boyfriend or how he did anything wrong?? Yes, he shouldn't have slept with Tashi (Art's WIFE), but HE was single.... TASHI was the one married, so really, SHE was the main one at fault here as far as I'm concerned lol. 😅
Why did Art and Patrick like Tashi so much?? I mean, aside from the fact that she was gorgeous (obviously lol)....She seemed like such a ballbuster and treated them like crap lol.
Mike has a cute butt lol 🤭
Josh does a really good American accent. I only heard it go out and switch off like maybe once or twice lol. Only slightly lol. 😅
BTW, in case you were wondering...I'm Team Patrick lol.... 🤭 He was just a washed up bum of an athlete lol. I feel like Art and Tashi were way more manipulative. Jmho. I do kinda feel bad for Art though on some level, cuz it was CLEAR Tashi was in a boring, lifeless marriage and didn't really love him anymore lol.
I saw people in our audience gasping and covering their mouths during some of the sexual scenes lol. I could tell a couple of the girls in the theater were fans of Zendaya and had never seen her in such a role before hahaha. Some were laughing at some of the sexual stuff and it was like uncomfortable laughter/giggling lol. The guys included lol. 🤭
I'm not sure what awards this film will be up for, but seeing as how it's a film by Luca, we might actually see Z getting an Oscar nod for this!! Or, at the very least, maybe engaged in a FYC campaign. I can see it. Luca is very well-known...his film CMBYN garnered Oscar nods (including an Oscar nod for Timothee), and Z is Hollywood's Darling atm, soooo idk y'all! We might be looking at "Oscar-Nominated Actress" Zendaya next year! I guess we'll have to see lol. 😊
I looooved that Z was able to work with such a renowned and well-liked film director. I'm glad she got that experience. She's been working with some great directors lately (ie. Luca, Denis, etc), and I love that for her. It seems like FFC was also eyeing her for one of his roles at one time as well. So, I'm so proud of our girl!!! 👏🏾
OVERALL
Overall.... Definitely a fun, joyride of a film. 😊 VERY creatively done. So far, I haven't really been THAT impressed with Luca's films (CMBYN being the other one I've seen), but his films def make you THINK, long after they're over, that's for sure lol. The movie was fun and enjoyable to watch. There were just a few things that I felt could have been better imo.
OVERALL SCORE: 6.5/10

Zendaya | "Challengers" 🎾
Can we talk about how good her form is? Like, her form is actually pretty decent for someone who isn't really an avid tennis player.
