Zendaya is open to the idea of making new music.

The 27-year-old star has focused on her acting career in recent years, but Zendaya loves the process of making music and has even hinted that she could release a new record at some stage.


“You know, I think with the right timing and [if] it came … again, I like creating it for myself. But if there was a moment maybe I would put out a little something. Don’t be crazy, we’ll see. But maybe … one day,” Zendaya shared during an appearance on “The Jennifer Hudson Show.”

Zendaya loves the creative process of making music, however, she hates the business element of the industry.


“I love music and it’s something that’s been special to me and being in the music industry … it didn’t kill the joy of music, but when you put music and business together it cannot feel so good,” the Hollywood star who released her eponymous debut album in 2013 explained.

Zendaya actually performed alongside Labrinth at Coachella in 2023.

But the “Replay” hitmaker admitted that she was initially reluctant to join him on stage.

“He asked me if I wanted to come out and perform and immediately I was like ‘Oh, absolutely not.’ I was like ‘I can’t do that,'” she shared.

Zendaya confessed to having “bad memories” of performing as a child.

“I was like, ‘I can’t! I can’t do it! It drives me crazy! I’m too nervous. I don’t wanna not do good and I don’t wanna let people down.”

“And then I went to myself, ‘Dude, you can’t run from this. You can’t hide from this forever. You’re gonna want to be on a stage and perform live once in your life at least.’ And what better place to do it than with someone that I admire and I respect and it’s his set, not mine, so I can just enjoy being with him, and so I said ‘yes’ and was like, ‘Why the hell did I do this?'”
