Watch: Law Roach Addresses Odessa A'zion Feud Rumors After Viral Emmys Encounter

Law Roach is ripping these rumors apart at the seams.

Indeed, the celebrity stylist reacted to speculation that he is feuding with Odessa A'zion after she appeared to pull away from him while they posed for a photo with Zendaya at the 2026 Emmys.

"We were laughing," Roach shared in a Sept. 16 statement to The Shade Room. "I'm having lunch with her this week. There was no shade there."

A'zion was seen speaking with Roach—who has been Zendaya's stylist for more than a decade—before giving a small wave to the Spider-Man: Brand New Day star as she approached them at the 78th annual ceremony on Sept. 14. 

The actresses, both presenters that evening, shared an embrace before photographers urged the trio to take a group photo. Although the Marty Supreme actress appeared to be walking into the award show as Roach and Zendaya posed, she simply leaned closer to the duo. A'zion eventually came closer and as the stylist leaned his head towards her, she moved further away.

After the photos, however, the trio seemed in good spirits as A'zion asked Zendaya—who attended the Emmys with her husband, Tom Holland—about her crystal-embellished custom Prada gown. 

The Dune actress is no stranger to turning heads on the red carpet, with her most recent ensemble including a daring pixie cut that perfectly spotlighted her Mikimoto diamond and pearl earrings.

And thanks to Roach, the 29-year-old has proven just how powerful her looks can be.

"Fashion, in many ways, is a tool for me," she told Vanity Fair in November 2024. "I consider myself a shyer person, which I guess you wouldn't quite realize from the crazy, sometimes ridiculous things that I wear. But it's my armor."

The pair even create characters to embody for each outfit.

"We give them little backstories," she continued. "It does help to create this little persona every time you come out. I just embody this girl—whoever this woman is tonight. It makes the whole process easier because it's not yourself; it's a version of yourself."
