Nyong’o continued on the speculation about their alleged romance: “She has magnetism that they were obviously picking up on. She is that enigmatic. I was not surprised. And I don’t mind being associated with her in any capacity.”
While that isn’t really a denial, Lupita continued to praise Janelle, adding, “It’s built into her spirit,” she said. “Her openness creates intimacy onscreen. It’s really cool to see her move from one thing to another and do it with such mastery.”
