Lupita Nyong'o STUNS in Harper's Bazaar!!




How gorgeous is Kenyan beauty Lupita Nyong'o? This Harper's Bazaar UK May 2015 cover is everything!!!

In an excerpt from her interview, the Yale graduate dishes on how she finally got comfortable with dancing in front of people. You know us Africans, love to dance, how was she this shy?! The Academy Award winner says that back in the day, she was afraid to dance and would be worried if she looked “cute”. But now, she doesn't care. She’s owning who she is and doesn't care who’s watching. She spilled,

“There was a time when I was afraid to dance. My older sister would dance with abandon,’ she continues. “She would do it to entertain. I was so mortified at the thought of wiggling my body in any direction. And I wrestled with myself, because I didn’t want to be so self-conscious. I wanted to be able to enjoy music and not care that I looked cute. I don’t know when something switched in my head, but I’m so glad it did, because I feel like dancing, and being able to enjoy one’s body for oneself is such a precious, precious thing. For yourself, you know?’ She pauses. ‘If this had happened to me at a time when I couldn’t dance – ha – my God, I think I would be way more of a wreck.”
