Zendaya is most definitely the lead actress in Challengers and as for reviews, it has a 88% Rotten Tomatoes critic's score which is very, very good. For context, Emilia Perez that is expected to be a Best Picture nominee only has a 76% score.

Yes, Challengers and Mike and Maria. Both of which she did not have to audtion for. She’s also currently filming a new movie with Robert Pattinson that she’s the female lead that she also didn’t have to audition for.

Zendaya has made it clear she barely knew Taylor. This was during Swift's "I'm a feminist because I have a girl squad phase" that simply included walking around with every currently famous young woman at that time. Zendaya was famous before Spiderman because she was on a Disney show. Well, two shows actually since she went on to star on another after Shake It Off ended. When casting for Spiderman was first announced, she had 10 million Instagram followers already to Tom's 250,000. Spiderman was without question his breakout role, which isn't to say he isn't very much famous in his own right. But yeah, anyone bringing up DWTS that Zendaya did at 17 to minimize the current status of her fame is silly. Even if one wanted to dismiss her as just a fashion star more than a serious actreess like some used to do a few years ago, her two Primetime Emmy and Golden Globe wins have dismissed that. She also made history as the youngest actress to have two Lead Actress Emmy wins. She is very much superstar status at this point. Hell, you know what they say, when you're literally one name - you're a star. And best of all, no nepo baby accusations against her either.

I don't think that's why he voted for Sam. Kyle talked a lot about being an underdog himself and I think he probably genuinely admired Sam being at the bottom and clawing his way to the end.

And where in any of my comment did I say she didn't earn her win? My point was that the end of the season might have fizzled for some because it very quickly became so obvious who would win.

It fizzled at the end because once Rachel started winning challenges, the game was never in doubt. She was too strong physically and she had a million advantages making it impossible to get rid of her.

Same.

Yeah Sue's not getting any votes. Her best chance was Caroline and as we all saw, she voted for Rachel.

Yeah Sue, don't see it happening there. That speech for the votes wasn't it.

Mike and Ben sitting at home and going, "now how am I in it?" Yes Sue, you should appreciate Kyle hugging you, especially since you hated his guts for one damn vote on like Day 3.

Sam seemed genuinely surprised.

I wonder if the jury is slightly turned off by Sam and Rachel's bickering.

I like how Sam and Rachel are basically treating Sue like a non-entity. And I hate to say it, they're probably right.

Damn, Teeny's fire took a million years to burn. Reminds me of that woman some years ago where she was so close and it took forever for hers to burn too. Rachel not happy because I hate to say it, that fire challenge may have been the thing Sam needed to sway one or two jurors his way.

Well this went about as badly for Sam as was expected. Dude didn't even get the fire started. This is as bad as that one guy a few seasons ago who was such a strong player and was a disaster at fire. eta: Gabe trying to telepathically help Sam out.
