The 'Zendaya Theory' refers to a viral social media phenomenon where fans jokingly analyze the actress's career, her fashion influence, and her relationships with co-stars. Frequently surfacing on TikTok and X (formerly Twitter), the theory often explores the 'Zendaya Effect'—the idea that she elevates everyone around her or that she is the ultimate 'main character' of modern Hollywood. From her height comparisons with Tom Holland to her complex roles in films like Challengers, this meme template allows users to poke fun at celebrity culture or create niche deep-dives into her public persona. It is a favorite among stans and casual fans alike for its versatility in addressing pop culture trends.
