California-born model, singer, dancer and actor Zendaya has landed an important role in the upcoming Spider-Man: Homecoming. We were curious to know how music helps her acting.  

“I am a singer and I am an actor and music works in different ways, but sometimes the personal emotions revealed by the songwriter in me are there to serve eventually the actor too, just making you more emotionally aware and connected. I guess you could say the one common thing when it comes to music and it comes to acting is the feeling.

It’s all energy, it’s all how you’re feeling. So there’s oftentimes where you want to get into something, you want to feel something, you can play a song and get you there,  so definitely.”
