Squarespace x Zendaya Big Game Teaser
Courtesy PhotoZendaya is officially making her Super Bowl ad debut.
On Friday (Feb. 4), Squarespace shared a teaser of the Euphoria actress in their television spot, which is set to air in full on Super Bowl Sunday next weekend. The 10-second clip features the former Disney Channel star at what appears to be a beach. The clip opens up with a sandy seashell rotating in a hypnotic matter before the scene cuts to Zendaya, who is twirling while wearing a bright teal-colored halter dress adorned with various shells and pearl accents. With her red-tinted hair — which she first dyed and revealed in a Dec. 16 Instagram Story — Zendaya is giving off Disney’s Little Mermaid vibes.
“2.13.22 #Squarespace presents: Everything to Shell Sell Anything,” Squarespace captioned its Instagram. “Starring #Zendaya … stay tuned for more #BigGame,” Squarespace captioned their Instagram post, which contained the ad teaser. The website-building company followed up the post with a poster of the 25-year-old wearing a puka-shell necklace and matching earrings. “A classic story, reimagined,” they wrote.
Zendaya has had no shortage of work in the past few months. She currently stars in and executive produces Euphoria, which airs every Sunday on HBO Max. In 2021, she reprised her role as MJ in Spider-Man: No Way Home (which has grossed over $1 billion worldwide), starred as Marie in Netflix’s Malcolm & Marie and voiced the character of Lola Bunny in Space Jam: A New Legacy.

There’s a high probability that Jorja Smith has new music coming this summer. The British singer revealed plans for her What Are the Odds LP on Thursday (July 2), with the album set to arrive on Aug. 21 via FAMM.
Smith reunites with producer P2J — who served as a primary collaborator on her 2023 album Falling or Flying — for the entirety of the project. J Money and P2J will continue to build on the inventive U.K. garage sound Smith has been exploring, alongside a mix of grime and house.
“This album came together really naturally. There was never a big plan; it was just me making music that felt right in the moment,” Smith tells Billboard. “Working with P2J, we started experimenting with different sounds, pulling from U.K. garage, grime and house (funky house, Afro house) and it all grew from there.”
She continues: “The music feels uplifting, but the lyrics can be a bit sad at times. They’re about growing up, love, loss, friendships and figuring things out as I go. I trusted my instincts with this one, and I think you can hear that throughout the record.”
Smith kicked off the album’s rollout in May with the self-assuring “What’s Done Is Done,” and it continues on Thursday (July 2) with a second single, “Alive,” which finds the R&B singer joining forces with Afrobeats pioneer WizKid. The duo basks in the love-drunk euphoria of the honeymoon phase of a bubbling relationship and heads to Paris for the visual.
“Making this with P2J and WizKid felt really easy,” Smith adds of the collab. “We wrote and recorded it together in London. I think we captured that feeling when you’re at the beginning of something with someone and everything feels exciting. I’ve always loved WizKid’s music and the way he’s opened so many doors for Afrobeats around the world, so it feels really special and a big honor to have a song with him.”
What Are the Odds serves as Jorja Smith’s third studio album and contains 12 tracks. Outside of WizKid, the only other feature comes from grime artist Devlin.
When the project lands on Aug. 21, Smith will hit the stage later that night at London’s All Points East, as she’ll be co-headlining the Victoria Park show with Tems. 2026 has already been a busy year for J Money, who served as a musical guest on the debut season of Saturday Night Live UK in April.
The 29-year-old also collaborated with Mobb Deep’s Havoc for a remix of her “Blue Lights” classic and lent “Price of It All” to Amazon MGM Studios’ Bait soundtrack.
