This is so sweet!
Lupita Nyong’o has been vocal about growing up feeling less-than-beautiful (which is crazy ’cause she’s STUNNING), and has cited supermodel Alek Wek as one of her beauty inspirations over the years.
Now, the two have finally met in real life and video cameras were there to document it! Hurray for meeting your heroes! Hurray for technology!
Check out the video (below) of the women basically gushing over each other! We have a feeling this is the beginning of a lifelong friendship!
See the vid …AFTER THE JUMP!!!
