Zendaya goes viral for ‘very demure' fan encounter while filming ‘Dune: Part Three'
Zendaya may be away from her fiancé Tom Holland while filming 'Dune: Part Three' in Budapest, but she's still being showered with love thanks to one fan's enthusiastic pup. A video of the Oakland actor petting a small black dog has gone viral, with several social media users praising Zendaya for her etiquette. The brief clip shows the ' Euphoria ' star standing next to a black van on the side of a street in Budapest, chatting with fans sitting on the ground in front of her. Zendaya appears to ask permission to approach one of the dogs among the group. Upon receiving consent, Zendaya drops into a squat to get closer when the dog quickly jumps onto her knees and begins licking her face. 'Pov: your dog just licked Zendaya's mouth,' read the text on the video, shared on TikTok on Friday, July 4. The post has since received 1.4 million views and 223,300 likes. 'Bro made the most of his opportunity,' one fan joked in the comment section, receiving 3,057 likes, while another simply wrote, 'He took his chance,' earning 65 likes. Once the dog jumps off her lap in the video, Zendaya laughs off the interaction and continues scratching its head. Her gentle approach struck fans in the comment section, who praised the Golden Globe-winning actor for being respectful throughout the interaction. 'See how she asked before petting the dog? Very mindful very demure,' commented TikTok user @preka012, receiving 30,400 likes. Though Zendaya appears to be alone in the video, her ' Dune ' castmates Timothée Chalamet and Jason Momoa are due to join her in Budapest for the third installment of the science fiction series, which adapts Frank Herbert's 1969 novel 'Dune Messiah.' Director Denis Villeneuve is shooting sequences of the film with IMAX cameras, according to Variety, though not exclusively. This approach mirrors Christopher Nolan's work on his next project, 'The Odyssey,' in which Zendaya and Holland star. Both films are reportedly the only ones to be produced in such a way. 'The Odyssey' is set for theatrical release on July 17, 2026, while 'Dune: Part Three' is expected in theaters in December 2026. Meanwhile, as Zendaya begins working on 'Dune: Part Three,' Holland has been spotted enjoying some downtime at Wimbledon and the Silverstone Grand Prix in his native England.

Paul Simon's daughter blasts Richard Gere for selling her childhood Connecticut home to real estate developers: ‘Hate him!'
Richard Gere, you're breaking my heart. Lulu Simon, the daughter of legendary singer Paul Simon, blasted the 'Pretty Woman' actor after he sold her childhood Connecticut home to real estate developers who plan to demolish the property to build new houses. 'Just in case anyone was wondering if I still hate Richard Gere – I do!' Simon wrote in an Instagram story posted on Tuesday. 8 Lulu Simon slammed Richard Gere in an Instagram story posted on Tuesday. Instagram / lulusimonofficial The singer, 30, claimed that the Golden Globe-winning star vowed to 'take care' of the 31.8-acre estate in New Canaan as part of the conditions when he purchased the mansion in 2022. 'He bought my childhood home,' Simon said. 'Promised he would take care of the land as [a] condition of his purchase. Proceeded to never actually move in & just sold it to a developer as 9 separate plots.' The daughter of the Simon & Garfunkel hitmaker didn't go into details about the alleged agreement Lulu, who has just over 2.5K monthly listeners on Spotify, continued her social media rant when she posted an edited photo that showed her old childhood pets surrounding an image of Gere. 'I hope my dead pets buried in that backyard haunt you until you descend into a slow and unrelenting madness,' Simon captioned the post. 8 Simon posted this seemingly edited image after slamming Gere. Instagram / lulusimonofficial 8 Simon expressed her 'hate' toward the actor after the sale. Instagram / lulusimonofficial 8 The property also featured a separate 2,400-square-foot guest house. The Post has reached out to Gere's rep for comment. Despite Lulu Simon's lament about the lost property, the estate has not proven to be a fruitful investment for its owners. Both the 16-time Grammy winner Paul Simon and Gere, 75, took a loss during their separate sales of the 8,800-square-foot mansion. 8 Richard Gere won a Golden Globe for his performance as Billy Flynn in the 2002 film 'Chicago.' Getty Images The 'Sound of Silence' singer and his wife, singer Edie Brickell, bought the home where he 'recorded many of his hit albums' for $16.5 million in 2002, according to Town & Country. In 2019, the couple tried to sell the Georgian-style estate for $13.9 million. The asking price fluctuated for three years until the 'Chicago' star purchased the estate for $10.8 million in 2022, The Post reported. The main home has six bedrooms, seven bathrooms, three powder rooms and multiple fireplaces. The property also featured a separate 2,400-square-foot guest house, a pond, a pool and a courtyard. Gere had planned to turn a portion of the property into a farm, according to Realtor. 8 Gere purchased the property in 2022. 8 The home is being demolished after it was sold to real estate developers. @hudsonvalleyhouseparts/Instagram 8 Lulu attempted to follow in her father's footsteps and has released a series of original songs. Children's Health Fund After owning the property for only two years, Gere and his wife, Alejandra, took a slight loss on the property and sold the house in an off-market deal to real estate developers for $10.75 million in October 2024. The couple sold the home so they could move to Spain and be closer to Alejandra's family, Gere shared during an interview with Vanity Fair Spain in April 2024. 'Alejandra was very generous in giving me six years of living in my world, so it's only fair that I give her at least another six years of living in hers,' he told the outlet.
