There isn’t technically homework for Beyoncé’s epic Renaissance world tour, but you should try to come prepared, which, obviously, Zendaya and Tom Holland did.

Per Queen Bey‘s request that the audience wear silver, Zendaya wore head-to-toe sparkles: a crop top and skirt set, an oversized jacket, and silver hoops. Holland did a black leather thing, but he wore a Renaissance T-shirt.
Second, they aced the “mute challenge,” which is a point during the concert when Beyoncé, singing “Energy,” performs the line, “Big wave in the room, the crowd gon’ move, Look around everybody on mute,” and attendees go silent.

Of course, they did have practice. The Spider-Man stars also attended a Renaissance show together in Warsaw earlier this summer, and Zendaya danced to Beyoncé at her assistant’s birthday party. Certified BeyHive member. In Glamour’s 2017 cover interview with the star, she cited the singer as one of her inspirations and role models alongside Shonda Rhimes, Oprah, and Michelle Obama. Which reminds us…how has Michelle not been to Renaissance yet? Sasha, Malia, get on this.
