Have you ever wondered what Zendaya means? Well, now we know.
The actress wanted to see how well her Dune: Part II co-stars know her, so she asked them during a Vanity Fair shoot. And neither Austin Butler, Florence Pugh, Timothée Chalamet, Javier Bardem, nor Josh Brolin knew the answer.
So, what is the meaning behind her name? It means “to give thanks.”
Awww. How nice! My name means “to rise again.” I am a Vampire, and she is someone we are thankful for. And that is why she is a movie star, and I am writing about her.
We’ve all seen that photo of a bald Austin Butler with no eyebrows for his character in Dune: Part Two. But did the actor really shave off all of his hair?
Graham Norton wanted to know, so he asked the Elvis star when he was a guest on the show last week.
Butler told the host that because he had to shoot Bike Riders when he wrapped Dune 2, the director of the other film asked him not to do it.
So, he spent three hours every day getting a skull cap put on that went down to his eyelids. And if they didn’t place it properly on his eyes, one eye would stay closed.
When Jodie Foster and Olivia Coleman heard how much time he spent in hair and makeup, they were like, we would totally shave our heads.
Austin Butler might have lost his mother at a young age, but she instilled in him to be a gentleman and treat women with respect.
Case in point. Yesterday at the SAG Awards, he helped Sally Field and Jennifer Coolidge up the stairs to the stage when they accepted their honors.
The actor might not have won an award, but he definitely won our hearts.
I interviewed Butler when he was just a teen, and I knew there was something special about him. I am so happy that people are finally seeing what I saw back then.
Austin Butler has a sexy suaveness that just oozes off of him. And it turns out he also has a romantic side.
The actor showed his secret talent to Vanity Fair, and it will make women swoon. What is it? He can turn a paper napkin into a rose.
Imagine having a man talking to you in his deeper Elvis Presley voice as he lovingly looks into your eyes, and his hands are making you a rose. Then when he hands it to you, you are like my place or yours. At least, I would.
I had interviewed Austin Butler a few times long before he played the King. However, I don’t remember him sounding like Elvis Presley. But yesterday, during his acceptance speech at the Golden Globes, if you closed your eyes, all you heard was the singer.
We were not alone; the press heard it too. Therefore, a reporter asked him if he thinks he still sounds like Elvis. “I don’t even think about it. I don’t think I sound like him still. But, I guess I must because I hear it a lot,” the actor said. “I often liken it to when someone lives in another country for a long time. I have three years where that was my only focus in life. So I am sure there are just pieces of my DNA that will always be linked in that way.”
When Butler became Elvis, he really became him. Hopefully, after the Oscars, he will become Austin Butler again. Because there was nothing wrong with him, I always knew he would be a star.
