Why did Zendaya not attend Golden Globes 2023? Fans cheer as the Euphoria actress wins Best Performance award

Euphoria actress Zendaya won the award for Best Performance by an Actress in a Television Series at the Golden Globes 2023 award show. However, the actress was not a part of the ceremony and was not seen on the red carpet.

After winning against other notable nominees, including Emma D’Arcy, Laura Linney, Imelda Staunton, and Hilary Swank, while accepting Zendaya's award, presenters explained:

"So, we are going to accept this award on her behalf. She’s busy. She’s working, y’all."

Zendaya wrapped up shooting for Dune: Part Two less than a month ago, which took place across Abu Dhabi, Jordan, Italy and Budapest. She was last seen at an FYC event in Los Angeles with her Euphoria co-stars. Although the actress has not shared her reason for not attending the award show, the presenters said that Zendaya was busy with her career.

Two-time Emmy winner Zendaya did not win any awards for her performance in Euphoria season 1, and her film Malcolm & Marie. Her 2023 win is for Euphoria season 2, and marks her first nomination as well as victory in the Golden Globes. Zendaya was last seen at the award ceremony in 2016.
