A terrifying new video is going viral across social media, Media Take Out has learned. And the video purports to show a group of men assaulting actress Zendaya.
In the video, which has millions of views, a tall lite skinned woman is attacked by what appears to be two men. The woman – who resembles the beautiful actress – stumbles and falls. And then the victimized woman is repeatedly punched and kicked in the head.
Media Take Out has not been able to confirm whether the woman in the video is Zendaya, nor have we determined how recent the attack was. But that hasn’t stopped people on Twitter from believing that it was Zendaya in the video.
Media Take Out reached out to Zendaya’s camp for comment, and so far we haven’t received a response.
Here’s the video:

She made her television debut as Rocky Blue on the Disney Channel sitcom Shake It Up (2010–2013) and starred as the titular character in the sitcom K.C. Undercover (2015–2018), for the channel. Zendaya’s role as Rue Bennett, a struggling drug addicted teenager, in the HBO teen drama series Euphoria (2019–present) made her the youngest recipient of the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series. Her film roles include the musical drama The Greatest Showman (2017), the superhero film Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017) and its sequels, the romantic drama Malcolm & Marie (2021), and the science fiction epic Dune (2021).
