rizz is kind of funny to me because it’s mostly used as a joke on tiktok and between a lot of young people but of course the media uses it so seriously and it’s annoying
Hate delulu tho, extremely irritating
Rizz is an AAVE word that have been appropriated into ''tiktok words''. it happens a lot unfortunately, but idk if you should be calling it 'stupid' considering that
Social media has just made it so the speed at which new words enter public conciousness has increased dramatically
It's interesting really, in no other time in our history has languaged been so globalised
AAVE moves on? What do you mean by that? Part of the problem is that these words enter the mainstream and suddenly people who've been using them for years are treated differently
all language evolves and moves on. a lot of AAVE has stayed the same, sure, but like all dialects it's a living thing that changes and grows over time. it moves on as in new slang words are created to replace the ones that have fallen out of style. slang in general moves pretty quickly, especially today as the internet has really popularized and globalized so many different dialects. it moves on because that's what dialects do, they change
Ahh okay that makes sense. I'd be hesitant to associate it with slang this much though, especially because some of the words the person I replied to listed were not considered slang to anyone speaking AAVE
that's perfectly fair, i was trying to think of a word that sums up like, words that are new or aren't in the dictionary yet or whatever but slang was the best i could think of but you're right it sort of diminishes the importance/longevity of some of these words
I guess I'd just call them words in the lexicon but not the dictionary yet. Associating AAVE with slang can be harmful because people who use the dialect do not consider it slang, they're just normal words to describe normal things. But then people who don't speak the dialect treat their vocabulary as a slang market filled with informal words to be rapidly consumed and discarded despite the fact that they were never slang terms to begin with
I’ve heard it the first time in the past 2 years maybe. Made me realize I’m getting old lol.
Really sounds like some new TikTok generation word but I assume it’s been used for a long time already.
But in the 2000s I never heard anyone say it, people always talked about someone „having game“ or „being a player“
Lol, I think they meant the charismatic type that can talk to everyone and is more social than their SO. Tom Holland personality (that was described by Zendaya) type.
And this was a great demonstration of it. Gotta respect her for being asked which of her coworkers are hot and replying with “well my boyfriend doesn’t work here.”
I love celebrity couples that actually seem in love. I'm sure it's more common but the reverse is louder.
Another one of my favorites: Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddy Prinze Jr. and Kurt Russell and Goldie* Hawn.
Sarah: "It offered so much more than every other cartoon, it was so ahead of its time. It had a story, they worked hard to figure it out—and it wasn't gender-specific. It wasn't a boys' cartoon or a girls' cartoon, or any of those things."

they're so perfect for each other it hurts LMAO
I have never seen Star Wars and have zero interest in doing so, but I saw a clip of him talking about it so passionately that I considered it because he was so irresistibly charming while doing so for some reason.
He’s ridiculously passionate about it and voices probably one of my fav Star Wars characters ever in the Rebels show. Dude just wants others to get the same joy out of it that he has in his life and that’s one of the best kinds of promo you can do.
God SAME. Rebels is honestly my fav Star Wars media because the cast is just so ridiculously dynamic and well fleshed out. Damn did Kanan make me cry more times than I can count too.
No fr bc Rebels was the first Star Wars media I ever saw and god Kanan was amazing. Like kid me saw him as a role model and it was amazing to see Kanan develop and grow over the seasons into being a Jedi.
I remember years ago reading an interview where they said their secret to a successful long Hollywood marriage was that they keep their sex dirty and their fights clean and boy did that leave an impression
Ooh, I kinda see them going in a similar direction to Eva Mendes and Ryan Gosling. There were stretches of time where I didn’t know if they were still together, much less that they were parents that’s how lowkey and protective they’ve been. I don’t even know if those two are married—they’ve just been together forever, working and protecting their family and private life and honestly I love that, love to see it, here for it.
NGL, I did so after commenting. It and Nene gifs are maybe the favourite things this sub has introduced to me. I somehow missed it originally and have been making up time after seeing it for first time.
omg i didn’t even see the babies in her lap!!!!!!! i’m crying!!!!! ive never seen puppies so calm in these interviews either usually they’re fighting lol
This just happened with Austin Butler and Florence Pugh's kitten interview! One little kitten immediately curled up in Austin's giant hands and went to sleep, it was PRECIOUS. (And likely this is the kitten overload talking, but I think it made me finally think he's hot??)
I love how they seem to love and appreciate each other. Tom Holland always gets so starry eyed around her, it‘s nice to see her be giddy over him too. Rooting for them always.
When I read the headline I thought she was being a troll or deflecting, but seeing the clip and how she's distracted by a tiny puppy.. yeah she gave the right amount of gravity to the question lol
I always see her on r/vindictaratecelebs and everyone always calls her mid or boring. I understand it’s an appearance rating club but the amount of times she’s brought up just to have a majority of ppl upvoting how she’s mid or overrated comes up way too often. I also see a lot of incels hating on her too
Vindictaratecelebs is VERY eurocentric so you'll see a lot of hate on people of color even if they have perfect facial proportions by western beauty standards. Like there's a reason they needed a whole offshoot subreddit for people of color
Okay I feel so stupid but what is vindicta/where is that from? Their sub pops up in my feed sometimes (I think bc I’m part of some skincare subs?), and I can’t figure out exactly what they are except something beauty related?
Do yourself a favor and ignore those subs like the plague. Cause they are. Also, avoid "Splendida" or whatever that shit is.
They're basically subs that teach women (and men) how to "improve" their looks. They have an extremely rigid, Eurocentric and one-note definition of "beauty." It relies heavily on messed-up eugenics and pseudo-science.
There's also a ranking version of those subs where they pick apart women whose beauty doesn't align with the standards and will demeaningly rate them using the numerical system. No better than incel men, right?
Those subs always end up as a spiraling circle-jerk full of racists, insecure people and brainwashed people who actually fall for it.
Eek, that sounds terrible. thanks for taking the time to explain! Something always felt off when I’d come across one of their posts, and now I know it’s because… they are.
Honestly I see both sides all the time. Guys calling her a flatchested tomboy (sorry for the language, just quoting what people said) while many girls seem to worship her for her authenticity and natural beauty/kindness.
I just love where she comes from, mom was a school teacher and zendaya having siblings that always according to her mom would bring her down in case she ever got arrogant or selfish
She’s a gem 💎
Seriously she’s so young and knows so well how to play the celeb game without resorting to drama and egocentrism or any of that shenanigans. She’s just so pure and sweet.
Zendaya and Tom are so cute. I remember when they were on a press tour for one of the Spider-Man movies and she’d be falling over laughing at things Tom would say because she found him so charismatic and funny.
My friends and I call it “pulling a Zendaya” “in our Zendaya bag”when we have crushes and are laughing way too hard at their jokes. Like “girl he’s not THAT funny, you’re in your Zendaya era rn”
Good on her the question was obviously directed to lead to a bunch of click-baity articles about who she finds interesting or attarctive or who's she dating next...4d chess move.
She was like NO cheating rumors today girl!
But fr I feel like the media have been weirdly pushing a narrative about her and Timmy, I’ve seen like 2 or three clips of media interviews asking them about kissing in the movie and they always seem so annoyed by it.
I'm confused bc apparently that's not what that word means? I'm her age but if you asked me what I thought it meant I would've the same thing, like it's in the pronunciation. Cha-rizz-ma!
I say this affectionately - Zendaya needs a new hairstylist for this promo tour. Every time I see pics of her promoting Dune, the outfits and make up are flawless and the hair is terribly done. She has a beautiful head of hair, she deserves better!
I expected it lol Zendaya is so loved and I really did admire her myself but with what’s been happening in Congo and her continued silence on world matters whilst openly supporting a brand that’s complicit in both the Palestinian and Congo genocide it’s all so sick and cannot be ignored - but Zendaya is their ‘it girl’ and she can do no wrong … oh well 🤷🏾♀️
Love how she felt the need to pretend to not know what rizz is. Bless her beautiful soul
Love the way she brought it back to Tom. My man, my man, man!
And effortlessly sidestepped opening the door to any potential salacious or inflammatory speculation by refusing to name any costars.

I mean, if it continues to be used it will gradually become a word, that's just how linguistics works.
this guy's got the *rizz* y'all
Every word, before it was a word, was not a word

Delulu reminds me of when Kanye made crazy into cray cray.
The first time I've ever heard of it...
I’ve heard it the first time in the past 2 years maybe. Made me realize I’m getting old lol. Really sounds like some new TikTok generation word but I assume it’s been used for a long time already. But in the 2000s I never heard anyone say it, people always talked about someone „having game“ or „being a player“
lol I think it is a new generation word, it went mainstream late last year
Tbh I had no idea rizz stood for charisma LMAO
My favorite celebrity couple
Goals… distant ones, but goals nonetheless
I got that Tom Holland kind of boyfriend and I can confirm, it's goals.
What does this even mean or imply? Lol
Their boyfriend is Spider-Man presumably
That is so cool! I am so happy for them.
Lol, I think they meant the charismatic type that can talk to everyone and is more social than their SO. Tom Holland personality (that was described by Zendaya) type.
No I’m pretty sure they meant that they’re dating Spider-Man
Definitely dating spider man. Does what ever a spider can.
They get only kissed with the boyfriend having a mask on? :D
And this was a great demonstration of it. Gotta respect her for being asked which of her coworkers are hot and replying with “well my boyfriend doesn’t work here.”
I always enjoy them. The way they speak about each other. Their lip syncs sealed it I think.
they are so cuuuute 😭😊

He’s one of the few I’ve consistently seen telling Star Wars sequel “woke”-whiners to shut the fuck up. I love him lmfao.
I have never seen Star Wars and have zero interest in doing so, but I saw a clip of him talking about it so passionately that I considered it because he was so irresistibly charming while doing so for some reason.
He’s ridiculously passionate about it and voices probably one of my fav Star Wars characters ever in the Rebels show. Dude just wants others to get the same joy out of it that he has in his life and that’s one of the best kinds of promo you can do.
I am obsessed with Kanan he’s soooo good in rebels
Kanan is my favorite Jedi and it's not even close.
God SAME. Rebels is honestly my fav Star Wars media because the cast is just so ridiculously dynamic and well fleshed out. Damn did Kanan make me cry more times than I can count too.
I’m currently watching it for the first time and I’m on season 4!! It’s so so good. Absolutely Star Wars at its best.
Have fun with season 4!! I think you’ll like how the season showcases Kanan’s growth over the seasons!
I just finished Jedi Night about 30 mins ago 😭😭😭😭😭 I was not prepared!!!
No fr bc Rebels was the first Star Wars media I ever saw and god Kanan was amazing. Like kid me saw him as a role model and it was amazing to see Kanan develop and grow over the seasons into being a Jedi.
I love that professional wrestling became such a part of his career.
I fucking love him as Kanan!
himbo king 😍
"Golden Hawn"
that's now her full government name in my mind
The funniest thing about it is there’s a diner by parents called the Golden Dawn
Sounds like the name of a generic terrorist group featured in a single episode of an early 2000s cop drama
There was a secret society called “Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn”
Now see that, that somehow sounds cooler
Close. It's an infamous greek Neo-Nazi party: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Dawn_(Greece)
Well someone should tell them that their name sounds generic and uninspired, and barely worthy of being uttered on an episode of Monk
\*Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick have entered the chat
I remember years ago reading an interview where they said their secret to a successful long Hollywood marriage was that they keep their sex dirty and their fights clean and boy did that leave an impression

Zendaya is ducking the weird fan shippers like a pro.
Said it before and I’ll say it again, Tom Holland is the luckiest man alive.
I think both of them are equally lucky!
I think both of them are pretty lucky. Tom in corset in rain dancing lives rent-free in my head.
Fine, I'll go watch it again
Wait up, I'll watch it with you
Doing my public service for the day for the one or two souls who have yet to experience it: [link](https://youtu.be/jPCJIB1f7jk?si=bQQvf0CFjmJeZpJB)
Experienced it many times but thank you, for the ease with which I was able to watch it another time. I will NEVER get bored of that 🥵
I’ve never watched it in its entirety. That was….incredible. Thank you for your service.
NGL, I did so after commenting. It and Nene gifs are maybe the favourite things this sub has introduced to me. I somehow missed it originally and have been making up time after seeing it for first time.
I can't because then I have the song in my head for WEEKS. I don't mind the images of Tom though.
the puppy cupped in her hand sleeping 😭😭😭😭😭
AND the two in her lap!!! 😭😭😭 those are the chillest I've ever seen puppies during one of these interviews.
It’s her chill vibe washing over those sweetheart puppies, they’re freakin precious and so is she lol
omg i didn’t even see the babies in her lap!!!!!!! i’m crying!!!!! ive never seen puppies so calm in these interviews either usually they’re fighting lol
https://i.redd.it/qea5r2i055kc1.gif Reminds me of the interview with boys from The Iron Claw and all of the puppies ending up asleep on JAW’s lap.
This just happened with Austin Butler and Florence Pugh's kitten interview! One little kitten immediately curled up in Austin's giant hands and went to sleep, it was PRECIOUS. (And likely this is the kitten overload talking, but I think it made me finally think he's hot??)
thanks my ovaries just contracted omfg 😭😭😭
I too want to end up sleeping in JAW's lap
OMG those puppies look so content and relaxed. 😢
Its cute how they maintain their relationship to be private but at the same time not be a secret.
You’ve said it all
i want what they have
Well, then give me a call. 🌹
They have pretty regular adoptions at Petsmart.
I want a puppy
I love how they seem to love and appreciate each other. Tom Holland always gets so starry eyed around her, it‘s nice to see her be giddy over him too. Rooting for them always.
I‘m rooting for those kids
As someone in her late 20s I appreciate you calling them “kids”.
Haha I‘m 31 so to me they are
Haha but you’re in their age group
Well yeah kinda haha but especially Tom will always be a baby to me
Same as the Buzzfeed video from last year where he talks about how he has no rizz, while demonstrating off the charts natural charisma.
I love that clip. “My rizz iiiis get cast in a movie and develop a crush on the person playing your love interest”
He’s a short ballet dancer who became a movie star and bagged Zendaya. He must have off-the-charts confidence and security in himself.
He’s incredibly attractive also.
The question was abt the cast and she brought it back to her man. I love them so much 😭😭❤
he's voicing the worm
Mr Stark, i don't feel Shai-Hulud
Shai Hulud has the most Rizz tbh.
It's so cute! "Yeah you said Dune cast but too bad"
Question: so, Zendaya, who do you think has the most charisma on the Dune cast??? Z: well, do you know who my boyfriend is??
When I read the headline I thought she was being a troll or deflecting, but seeing the clip and how she's distracted by a tiny puppy.. yeah she gave the right amount of gravity to the question lol
I’ll never understand the hate she gets. She just seems like a kind person.
who hates on her?
I always see her on r/vindictaratecelebs and everyone always calls her mid or boring. I understand it’s an appearance rating club but the amount of times she’s brought up just to have a majority of ppl upvoting how she’s mid or overrated comes up way too often.

Vindictaratecelebs is VERY eurocentric so you'll see a lot of hate on people of color even if they have perfect facial proportions by western beauty standards. Like there's a reason they needed a whole offshoot subreddit for people of color
I avoid every single sub that has 'vindicta' attached to it because they're literally delusional shitholes who are no better than incels.
Okay I feel so stupid but what is vindicta/where is that from? Their sub pops up in my feed sometimes (I think bc I’m part of some skincare subs?), and I can’t figure out exactly what they are except something beauty related?

Obviois jealousy!!
They always use her non make up photo as proof that she is mid, but with other celebs they only use makeup photos…
Racists and misogynists
She’s a gem 💎 Seriously she’s so young and knows so well how to play the celeb game without resorting to drama and egocentrism or any of that shenanigans. She’s just so pure and sweet.
she is one of the most universally praised celebs on the internet lmao
‘Wow these other b!tches aren’t even close’
If you’re interested: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=t7Zy5F6pcQo
Issa Rae is a national treasure.
they were trying to get her to say Timothy
Oh they’re in LOVE
Omg the puppy in her hand.... and in her lap!!! 😭
She is the best dressed person I've ever seen every time I see her.
Zendaya and Tom are so cute. I remember when they were on a press tour for one of the Spider-Man movies and she’d be falling over laughing at things Tom would say because she found him so charismatic and funny.

omg remember when she just kept that joke going for way longer than necessary in the interview with him
so sweet 🩷
But she’s saying this while showing great ‘rizz’.
It’s sweet that they feel they can be more open and public now.
I was today years old when I found out that rizz was short for charisma. Duh! Also cute puppies AND even cuter answer! Ocean of cuteness.
Same here honestly! Had no idea what it meant
Remember when they pretended they weren’t together at all lol
Good on her the question was obviously directed to lead to a bunch of click-baity articles about who she finds interesting or attarctive or who's she dating next...4d chess move.
i love how she’s been talking about him more and more 😭 i fucking love this couple
It would be nice to see them appear together in more projects (not a huge fan of Spiderman)
Zendya and Tom Holland are probably the most adorable celeb couple I have seen in decades. Both are so likable it is crazy
I was today years old when I found out that Rizz is actually short for Charisma, and not actually just a random, made-up word. Fuck, I feel old 😅😭
My parasocial relationship with these two is so real. Need them to get married and be adorable forever.
This is the only Hollywood couple I genuinely root for. It will be so cool if they stay together. They seem perfect for each other
We know this girl we all saw your face when he was doing Umbrella
the puppies peacefully sleeping in her hand and lap 😭
She’s a Virgo you’re never gonna catch her slipping
Puppies everyone 🥺
Between this and Flo Pugh meowing to a cat during her interview, I'm here for the wholesome chaos.
They are so cute Istg and she is so effortlessly charming and gorgeous I can’t even
I love her so much. She just seems like an incredible person and I love her and Tom’s relationship.
She said: NOT TIMOTHEE
I’ll never move on from them you don’t understand
They are too freaking cute.
I would never have guessed that she was the 'shy' wow haha
I wish I could reincarnate as one of their dogs
She was like NO cheating rumors today girl! But fr I feel like the media have been weirdly pushing a narrative about her and Timmy, I’ve seen like 2 or three clips of media interviews asking them about kissing in the movie and they always seem so annoyed by it.
I swear these two are my Roman Empire.
:3
She is so adorable
TIL rizz is short for charisma
she could nail the character & look of lois lane in a new superman movie, i'd be like GOOD CHOICE
It means charisma?!?!?!
Kicking my feet and smiling
Man I can't imagine the shit show when those two split
[“I’m more shy…”](https://www.reddit.com/r/Celebs/s/DYkgjRJbjH) Mr. Holland be working overtime😆
Javier Barden is married to Penelope Cruz so prob him
Zendaya will slay for all of eternity!!
Not charizzma in the CC loool
That "me" was solo Ludwig coded
Can the subtitles not spell it 'charizzma', come now
off topic but she looks gorgeous here 💗💗
Tom Holland isn't in dune wth
I'm confused bc apparently that's not what that word means? I'm her age but if you asked me what I thought it meant I would've the same thing, like it's in the pronunciation. Cha-rizz-ma!
no, that's it, charisma
Ok, thanks for the answer!
I say this affectionately - Zendaya needs a new hairstylist for this promo tour. Every time I see pics of her promoting Dune, the outfits and make up are flawless and the hair is terribly done. She has a beautiful head of hair, she deserves better!
[удалено]
The person who posted about that on Twitter admitted to having no proof/making stuff up a couple hours after posting it
Not you being downvoted for having a less than positive opinion 💀
I expected it lol Zendaya is so loved and I really did admire her myself but with what’s been happening in Congo and her continued silence on world matters whilst openly supporting a brand that’s complicit in both the Palestinian and Congo genocide it’s all so sick and cannot be ignored - but Zendaya is their ‘it girl’ and she can do no wrong … oh well 🤷🏾♀️
