Zendaya and Vogue magazine are a match made in heaven.
The "Euphoria" star serves looks on the simultaneous covers for American and British Vogue's May edition, a rare feat.
On the American Vogue cover, Zendaya donned a red Dolce & Gabbana Alta Moda dress with a Bulgari ring. In her British Vogue cover shoot, she wore an Adidas Originals by Wales Bonner track jacket and shorts with a pendant necklace from Bulgari.
The A-list actress graced the magazine amid a massive press tour for her upcoming movie "Challengers," the film which follows tennis player Tashi (Zendaya), at the center of a sports comedy with her current husband and ex-boyfriend.
“She's making all the decisions. She is doing all the stuff. So, I imagine that she's really just calling all the shots. She's, like, everybody's mom," she told Vogue of playing Tashi.
Zendaya, who is set to co-chair the 2024 Met Gala with American Vogue editor Anna Wintour, also compared Tashi's character development to her own life and career.
"I'm competitive, in the sense that I want to work hard, and I try to not be competitive with anyone else. I try to just be like, 'I already did that, okay, so now I got to do better.'"

In the interview, Zendaya opened up about her future as a "public-facing person" in Hollywood.
She said her "dream scenario" is being able to "make things and pop out when I need to pop out, and then have a safe and protected life with my family, and not be worried that if I'm not delivering something all the time, or not giving all the time, that everything's going to go away," Zendaya told the outlet.
"I think that's always been a massive anxiety of mine: This idea that people will just be like, 'Actually, I know I've been with you since you were 14, but I'm over you now because you're boring,'" she continued.
In British Vogue, Zendaya opened up about her boyfriend Tom Holland's sudden rise to superstardom.
"We were both very, very young, but my career was already kind of going, and his changed overnight. One day you're a kid and you're at the pub with your friends, and then the next day you're Spider-Man," she told British Vogue. "I definitely watched his life kind of change in front of him. But he handled it really beautifully."
For the American Vogue story, she also had a conversation with tennis legend and 23-time Grand Slam singles winner Serena Williams. When Zendaya asked how the retried tennis star finds work-life balance, Williams had a surprising answer. "Ask someone else," Williams joked, before Zendaya told her she would love to "hangout" in Los Angeles.

"I'd love to pick your brain about life and business," Zendaya told Williams. "I think I need more mentors and community and people around."
The pair also related over finding fame at a young age after Williams asked about the "Shake It Up" star's goals during childhood.
"I've only ever done what I've known, and this is all I've known. I'm almost going through my angsty teenager phase now, because I didn't really have the time to do it before. I felt like I was thrust into a very adult position: I was becoming the breadwinner of my family very early, and there was a lot of role-reversal happening," Zendaya said.
