“Hello, 911? Yeah, I have an emergency. Zendaya is in a suit and it’s too much for me to handle —”
They hung up.
Anyway, as you can see, Zendaya wore a suit on a red carpet. That alone should be bombshell news (I’m not being sarcastic, she slays a suit so hard that I feel attacked), but Twitter quickly realized something super important:
She was wearing a suit Michael B. Jordan previously wore.
Let’s get into it.
Okay, SO.
Zendaya is in a suit , y’all.
And not, like, that look everyone is doing where she wears the jacket with no shirt underneath. She did it up to the nines . Button-up, tie, the whole thing.
This look was a gift to the internet.
The absolute tea of this tweet…I’ve been scalded and I’m not even mad.
Also, I don’t wanna hear anything about the phrasing in this tweet! It’s called hyperbole, fam, get into it.
Turns out she rocks a suit a lot.
We stan a woman who puts on a suit and redefines the meaning of a “power suit.”
She wore her most current suit moment in the middle of New York Fashion Week, where she debuted her capsule collection with Tommy Hilfiger.
According to my timeline, this is accurate.
If Zendaya was ever in a car while wearing a suit, I’m 99% sure gay Twitter would lose their minds.
Can we just take a moment for that hair, by the way? It’s stunning.
The woman knows her suits.
She stacked her collection with a wide variety of suits for all body types, ages, and genders.
The effortless way that she included everyone in her design process was almost equal to how easily she pulls off a suit.
Gender roles? Never heard of them.
There’s a reason Zendaya is the celeb darling of the fashion world: she’s creative, gorgeous, and can pull off any look she’s put in.
She could literally wear a paper bag and look great.
So…about this tweet…
First of all, this is probably the absolute truth.
But second of all…things are about to get awkward up in here, because we cannot ignore how fly Michael B Jordan also looks in a suit.
Anyway, speaking of Michael B Jordan.
The man, the myth, the legend that is Michael B Jordan wore the same suit to the Vanity Fair Oscar party in February.
Guys…did she do it better than he did?
A ton of people were on Team Zendaya.
The discovery that they wore the same suit blew the internet tf up. And since Twitter was involved, memes started rolling out immediately.
I give this one a 7/10. Creative use of Thomas Sanders, but it feels Michael working that suit was slept on too hard.
Others made sure to slap some respect on his name.
This tweet truly sums up how I feel. Michael B Jordan is a babe, but Zendaya truly did something in that suit.
The power that has, the impact that has, the global implications that has…
This is too much.
This is it. This is the meme that broke me.
The meta meme knowledge it takes to understand this tweet is proof that we may have hit peak comedy. The internet can only go down from here.
Zendaya’s stylist caught on to the debate.
Law Roach, who was the brilliant mind behind Zendaya’s Cinderella moment at the 2019 Met Gala, took to Instagram to ask us for our opinions.
He also gave us the brand of the suit: Berluti, which I suddenly am a fan of for no particular reason.
Okay, lbr. Everyone was Team Zendaya.
Michael pulls that suit off beautifully, for the record.
I’m not nuts about how the shoulder padding works for him, but that’s the suit’s failure, not his.
On Zendaya, that padding gives her that slight ’80s height that is so in right now.
Including Michael B Jordan.
Instagram account @theshaderoom posted a side-by-side of their looks and asked their followers who wore it better.
Michael B Jordan replied, “@zendaya hands down no contest”
There you have it, folks. The man has spoken.

What do you think?
Did Zendaya really wear it better? Or did Michael B Jordan bring some suave, visual interest to an otherwise standard form of dress for men?
I’m going with Zendaya on this one, but I am open to other opinions. Maybe .
