She looks great in these photos, doesn’t she? Even in the height of last year’s awards season, we weren’t getting a ton of street-style photos of Lupita, so these pics are extra special. This is how she dresses on her off days. Still gorgeous. I’m in love with that jacket. I love the way she’s wearing her skinny jeans too – this might be the most I’ve ever liked a pair of skinny jeans.
So, what’s going on with Lupita? Immediately following the Golden Globes, Real Housewife Kenya Moore claimed that Lupita had snubbed her when she asked for a photo. Kenya tweeted about it (using the hashtag #girlbye), then deleted at least one of those tweets. But now Kenya is trying to take some of her claims back:
#Alisterproblems? More like #Yousoundlikeajackassproblems. And Kenya did initially claim that Lupita refused to take a photo with her. Ugh.
Meanwhile, Lupita is likely headed to Uganda and South Africa this spring to film Queen of Katwe with my new favorite actor David Oyelowo. Queen of Katwe is based on the book of the same name, and the true story of the “rise of a young African chess prodigy.”Mira Nair will direct, Lupita will play the mother of the chess of prodigy while Oyelowo will play the chess coach-mentor, Robert Katende.
