Model and actress Zendaya has alleged that she was a victim of racism in a supermarket, claiming that a store clerk refused to sell her $400 worth of gift cards because of her “skin tone”.

“The lady that was helping us… I don't think she was a huge fan of our skin tone,” she told her fans via Snapchat on Tuesday evening (September 6th), saying that the clerk at Vons threw her wallet back at her, causing her cards to fall out, while paying for groceries that afternoon.

She may have left ‘Fashion Police’ because of her co-star’s now infamous remarks about Zendaya Coleman’s hair, but it turns out that this may have simply been the last straw for Kelly Osbourne. Reports indicate that she had been unhappy about the general direction of the show for some time.

An unnamed source told the New York Post’s Page Six column that, while co-host Giuliana Rancic and the E! network's failure to handle the fallout of those comments properly was a factor, 30 year old Osbourne was unhappy without her friend Joan Rivers, who passed away last September, to present the show with any more.

“Let me just explain something. The reason why I chose not to do the Aaliyah movie had nothing to do with the haters or the people telling me I couldn’t do it, I wasn’t talented enough, or I wasn’t black enough,” she said about the backlash that followed her own casting announcement.

The casting of 17 year old Zendaya Coleman as tragic R'n'B singer Aaliyah has raised more than a few eyebrows since the announcement was made earlier this week. Those who have criticised the decision, have given a host of reasons why Coleman might not be right for the part, including saying she doesn’t resemble the late singer enough and that at 17, she's just too young to take on the role. But for those who might be sceptical about the casting, why not get to know Zendaya a little better first? After all, she might just have a little more in common with Aaliyah than you'd think.
