Academy Award winner Lupita
Nyong'o is considered to be the world's most beautiful woman by People
magazine, a title placing her above celebrities like Julia Roberts, Keri
Russell, Jenna Dewan.Tatum, Mindy Kaling and Amber Heard.
The 31-year-old actress, who
played the slave Patsey on the acclaimed drama "12 Years A Slave",
assured that she never dreamed of winning such a title, and felt praised by
being the cover of the issue which includes the 50 most beautiful women in the
world.
Lupita Nyong'o, who recently
signed a contract with the makeup brand Lancôme Paris as the image of its next
campaign, said she is happy of winning the title which acknowledges beauty
which does away with the stereotypes of clear skin and straight hair.
The young actress born in Mexico and raised in Kenya said that since she was
little, her mother Dorothy, who is the director of public relations of the
African Cancer Foundation, always told her how beautiful she is and that
finally she ended up believing her.
In an interview with People,
Lupita Nyong'o said that as a teenager she tinted her hair in a variety of
colors, except blonde, and even shaved her head once. However, she says that
the best praise comes when people call her "beautiful" when she's not
wearing any makeup.
Among the list of most
beautiful women are celebrities like: Keri Russell, Jenna Dewan-Tatum, Mindy
Kaling, Amber Heard, Pink, Gabrielle Union, Molly Sims, Kerry Washington and
Stacy Keibler.
