So how did the Hollywood diva end up in Pakistan? She’s attending the wedding of her friend, artist Misha Japanwala. According to the person that tweeted the first picture;
“At the wedding of an amazingly talented friend’s daughter in Karachi- Misha Fisher and their friends from New York, Lupita. Their dance performances rocked!”
So apparently Lupita Amondi Nyong’o is artist Misha Fisher’s friend from New York. The Kenyan-Mexican actor also reportedly danced to ‘Pony’ by Ginuwine, along with other wedding guests. However, those videos are not available online.
Later Karachi-based entertainment journalist, Sadiq Saleem, posted a picture of Lupita donning a black and white jumpsuit along with choreographer Zahid Hussain at Karachi beach. The post was captioned;
“Just before you hit the bed, let me tell you that Lupita is in Karachi dancing the night away at a beach wedding. Misha Japanwala tied the knot today! Seen with her is the go-to wedding choreographer Zahid Hussain. Hope the beach was clean!”
Lupita Nyong’o became an overnight star with her role in the film 12 Years a Slave. She won an Oscar for her supporting role in the movie.
Since then she’s gone on to take up roles in commercial blockbusters like Marvel’s ‘Black Panther’, as well as Keven Peele’s ‘Us‘.
