The 21-year-old "Spider-Man: Homecoming" star also counts her mother among the people whom she admires.
"I am inspired right now by people who use their platforms: If people know your name, they should know it for a reason. I'm obviously inspired by my mother, and I have an obsession with Oprah. She's someone who, even with everything stacked against her, has soared to unbelievable heights," Zendaya told Glamour magazine.
The actor said despite her success, Winfrey is very relatable and approachable.
