"I think it would be more intimidating if I felt like I was a role-model, a \'role model,\' but I feel like I\'m a real model -- in the words of Tupac Shakur," she explained. "Because I feel like I\'m not trying to pretend to be a good kid, or I\'m not trying to pretend to be something that I\'m not. Honestly this is who I am. As long as I am able to get some inspiration to them -- then I\'ve done my job."

Zendaya will be hosting the Radio Disney Music Awards airing Sunday, April 26 at 8 p.m. on Disney Channel.
