Zendaya Seemingly 'Ignores' Sydney Sweeney At The 'Euphoria' Season 3 Premiere

Tonight is a night that many have been waiting for, as 'Euphoria Sundays' are returning to HBO Max. As the third season of the scandalous, star-studded series premieres, fans are keeping their eyes on the cast, and something pretty telling happened during the early Los Angeles premiere last week on April 7th.

 

The show's impressive cast arrived dressed to the nines, and as several of them hit the red carpet at the same time, people began recording how the show's notable star, Zendaya, was interacting with and greeting her fellow castmates.

 

In a TikTok video posted by a celebrity account, the Emmy-winner can be seen lovingly greeting Hunter Schaefer, who plays her character's former love interest, with a hug, while turning away from Sydney Sweeney. You can watch the video here!

 

"Zendaya straight up ignoring Sydney Sweeney," wrote the TikTok user. "She really don't like her!"

 

Zendaya's lack of greeting and avoidance of the blonde bombshell had fans reeling, especially given that more and more reports of them being in a feud have come out in the last few months.

Fans React To Zendaya 'Ignoring' Sydney Amid Feud Rumors

It's no secret that the Housemaid star has become a controversial figure over the last few years, with her "offensive" jeans advertisement, right-leaning politics, etc. However, some sources have been claiming that Zendaya's alleged disdain for her co-star has been going on for quite a while.

 

More recently, before the premiere, when the ladies of the Euphoria cast were posing for promotional group photos, Sydney was noticeably absent. An insider responded, claiming Zendaya "refused" to stand next to her due to their "bitter" feud.

 

After seeing the premiere TikTok, fans and other internet users could hardly stop themselves from commenting on the drama. One user commented that Zendaya was "iconic for that," as another added, "I don't blame her."

 

"I would cry myself to sleep every night if I knew ZENDAYA did not like me," joked a user.

 

"Zendaya stands on business," added another, with one responding she "ate that MAGA up."
