You may of heard about incident on the 87th Academy Awards Red carpet when Zendaya’s choice to rock amazing dreadlocks was criticised by E! reporter and red carpet host Giuliana Rancic, who said ” I feel like she smells like patchouli oil and weed”.
Zendaya was rightly offended and took to Instagram to post her feelings towards a stereotypical comment such as that being aimed at a then 18-year-old.
Since the incident a new Barbie made into a resemblance of Zendaya’s red carpet look was released and unveiled on September 26 of this year where she was hosting the Barbie Rock n Roll Concert in Hollywood.
