Zendaya is letting fans in on her “forever” obsession: her dog, Noon!
Noon, Zendaya’s 9-year-old miniature schnauzer, joined his superstar mom for a Nov. 13 video to accompany the actress’ Hollywood Issue interview with Vanity Fair.
In the clip, Zendaya, who will star in Christopher Nolan’s upcoming film with boyfriend Tom Holland, details her “secret obsession” with her “forever puppy,” who she also calls her “kid.”
“He makes me very happy. He brings a lot of joy to all the sets we’ve been on,” the Euphoria actress says, adding, “It’s hard not to be obsessed with this face.”
While Zendaya’s devotion to her pet is apparent in the clip, the celebrity says Noon isn’t equally infatuated with her. Instead, Noon spreads his loyalty among a few select individuals.
“His favorite place is probably anywhere my mom is, Darnell is, or Tom is,” Zendaya says, listing off her dog’s favorite people as her mother, close friend, and famous boyfriend. “He loves all three of them more than he loves me.”
Despite Noon’s deep love for the other people in his pet parent’s life, Zendaya says she still spoils the pup but avoids showering him with treats due to the dog’s sensitive stomach.
Noon’s digestion troubles have led to a few awkward situations for the Challengers star. In the Vanity Fair video, Zendaya recalls a moment in Venice when Noon had to go to the bathroom. The Italian city didn’t have a park nearby, so the actress was left to pick up her dog’s business in front of the paparazzi.
“There is a picture of me, kind of looking a little bit glamorous, with a doggy poo bag in my hand,” she shares in the clip.

For Zendaya, cleaning up a few messes is a worthy trade-off for years of friendship.
“I have a group of people around me that protect my sanity and are … the key puzzle pieces to my existence, and he is definitely one of those pieces,” she adds of Noon while the dog perches on her lap.
