Zendaya Is Still Very Close with BFF Bella Thorne

Zendaya is all smiles in an oversized polka-dotted sweater on the October 2016 cover of Seventeen mag.

The 20-year-old K.C. Undercover actress opened up about her friendship with Bella Thorne, the impact of social media and more. Check it:

On whether there are ever moments when she feels insecure: “I hold myself to such ridiculously high standards that if I don’t meet or surpass them, I doubt myself. That fear of not being as good as you want to be can limit you from doing things. I feel a lot of people doubt me in the acting space because I’ve never done a big movie, and that’s why I’m excited about doing Spider-Man�I have no preconceived notions about how I’m supposed to deal with it. But I auditioned just like everybody else, and clearly I did something right.”

On learning to handle the critical voices in her own head: “Like, the way I see it in my head, I should be nothing shy of Beyonc�. But you can’t freakin’ put that much pressure on yourself. That doesn’t mean don’t strive for the best, because you should… Sometimes I need to realize that I’m human. I’m doing pretty good.”

On whether Bella Thorne is still one of her close friends: “Yeah! We’ll post things to each other on social media, but we know everybody’s looking at that, so if she wants to talk, she’ll call me or text me.”
