LUPITA NAMED WORLD’S MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMAN

#LUPISTAR

I once wrote on this same platform that destiny has it we will talk and write about the Oscar award winner Lupita Nyong’o for quite some time.

She once made some remarks that “she never dreamed she would be praised for her looks.” Well, destiny and fate had something else in store, as the actress was last Wednesday named as the World’s most beautiful woman for 2014 by People magazine- and also landed on the cover of the weekly magazine.

Although she first equated beauty with television images of light skin and long straight hair, Nyong’o said her mother always told her she was beautiful.

Speaking to Reuters, she added, “and I finally believed her at some point.” The announcement sparked a lot of debate in Kenya on social media with many criticizing women who do weaves and wigs. #TEAMFARASI was used in the discussion. It seemed to hit a lot of the women who are into weaves and wigs especially in Kenya.

This year’s most beautiful people list also included actress Keri Russell; Jenna Dewan-Tatum; Mindy kaling and Amber Heard. Pop singer Pink, actresses Gabrielle Union; Molly Sims and Kerry Washington, and model and former professional wrestler Stacy Keibler also made annual ranking.
