Lupita Nyong'o was born in Mexico, raised in Kenya and educated in the US. She is a 2012 graduate of the Yale University School of Drama's Acting program, and upon her graduation she was immediately cast in her first film role playing 'Patsey', in 12 Years a Slave. Her next role will be in the Liam Neeson film, Non-Stop.(Source 1, Source 2)

I think Lupita Nyong'o is beautiful, and I know that I'm not alone. I've been seeing her on red carpets over the past few months, and every time I do, I appreciate the way her twa frames her face and her gorgeous skin!


Here she is on the red carpet for the European premier of the film.If you would like a recap of her makeup click here.

Hey Look It's....Quvenzhane!

Quvenzhane Wallis on the set of Annie

Here she is filming Annie on the streets of  NYC! I'm looking at the hair and trying to figure out if it's a wig or her own...I'm thinking a wig, but at least it looks natural - and serves as a nod to the original Annie film.

Apparently Cameron Diaz will also be in the film as the evil Miss Hannigan, a role that Carol Burnett held in the original. I can't wait to see how they update the movie...
