Zendaya Shunned Meatballs On “Shake It Up”
Written by Vegetarian Star on August 20th, 2013 in Actresses, Food & Drink.
Zendaya has been crowned one of PETA2’s Sexiest Vegetarians in the celebrity youth contest held by the animal rights organization.
The actress stars as Rocky Blue on the Disney Channel series Shake it Up.
Zendaya told Just Jared Jr. the role she plays onscreen is a lot like real life–at least at the dinner table.
“In the meatball episode which was really gross, I put in a part where I said I was vegetarian because I really am a vegetarian in real life,” Zendaya said about the character. “That’s something I believe in very strongly. We decided to make Rocky a vegetarian as well.”
Rocky is a background dancer for a local show, Shake It Up Chicago.
A steady diet of spaghetti and meatless balls must be enough to give her energy for endless performances!
