Lupita Nyong’o is not only Hollywood’s hottest, fly new actress, she can now also call herself an Academy Award winner.
The 31-year-old Kenyan actress won the award for Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role for her work in the movie 12 Years a Slave. 12 Years also took home the night’s top honor of Best Picture.
When I look down at this golden statue, may it remind me and every little child that no matter where you’re from your dreams are valid,” Lupita said during her emotional speech.
Lupita looked simply stunning in a custom made “Nairobi” blue Prada couture gown. Congrats to Lupita, I just love her!
