Well I guess the young Disney Channel Star couldn’t take the heat. After petitions and racial remarks of Zendaya not being “black enough” for the role of Aaliyah, it seems she has officially given up the role. E! News reports that a representative for the 17-year-old actress says “Zendaya is no longer involved in the project.” Lifetime, who was excited to announce her starring as the lead in the biopic on June 16, has not commented. Do you think this will be enough to stop Lifetime from doing the movie?
