Zendaya is full of admiration for her boyfriend Tom Holland!
And more specifically, his charisma. The Euphoria actress praised the comedian in her life for his natural ability to liven up a room, something that doesn't come easily to him.

Zendaya was asked by BuzzFeed which of her Dune co-stars had the most “rizz.”
“'Rizz' is short for charisma, right? Everyone has their own,” Zendaya replied. “I think someone with wonderful charisma, not in the cast of Dune but personally, [ça] Works for me, it's Mr. Tom Holland. I'm rather shy and quiet, so it takes me a little longer to come out of my shell. But he’s great at talking to people and getting to know them.”
In her opinion, she shows her charm through her appearances on talk shows and press tours. “He’s naturally very good at it. For me, however, I really had to emphasize it a little bit,” she added. “He has this natural gift.”
However, Tom Holland might not agree with Zendaya's comments, having previously told BuzzFeed last year that he has “no rizz at all.” “I have limited charisma,” he emphasized. “You really have to fall in love with me for it to work, so it's a long-term game… That's kind of where my interest lies.” And you know, I'm in a relationship, so I'm happy and in love, so I don't need any rizz.
Zendaya and Tom Holland met on the set of the Spider-Man trilogy. Their relationship was confirmed when they were spotted kissing in 2021.
