Lupita Nyong'o Talks 'Life in Fast Forward' with British Vogue February 2020 by Steven Meisel

Lupita Nyong'o Talks 'Life in Fast Forward' with British Vogue February 2020 by Steven Meisel

AOC follows up with Lupita’s entire fashion story and interview, lensed by Steven Meisel with styling by Edward Enninful.

For her next challenge Nyong’o will produce, and star in, an adaptation of Nigerian writer Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s novel ‘Americanah’. “I had never seen the African contemporary experience explored, celebrated and analysed in such a way,” she says of the impact the story had on her. “The observations she makes as a non-American black person about America are things that I had never articulated but had felt. I was just madly in love.” The project belongs to HBO MAX.

Note that Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie is very tight with Dior Creative Director Maria Grazia Chiuri and not for one quick season. Their relationship dates back to September 2016 when — for her debut collection with Dior — the creative director asked Adichie for her help. The now famous t-shirt reading ‘We Should All Be Feminists’ was a direct reference to the author’s TEDx talk on the future of feminism.

Octavia Spencer Stars As Madam CJ Walker, First US Woman Self-Made Millionaire on Netflix

In 1910, Madam C.J. Walker, the black haircare pioneer and business mogul, became America’s first female self-made millionaire. Note that she did not become the first black woman millionaire, but the first WOMAN, American-made millionaire.

The daughter of former slaves, Madam Walker was born into freedom, just a few years after the Emancipation Proclamation was signed by US President Abraham Lincoln, abolishing slavery as America approached its third year of a bloody Civil War.

The four-part series is inspired by the biography,’ On Her Own Ground: The Life and Times of Madam C. J. Walker’, written by Walker’s great-great-granddaughter A’Lelia Bundles. Actor Octavia Spencer stars as the iconic businesswoman, Blair Underwood as her husband C.J. Walker, and Tiffany Haddish as her daughter Lelia. 

The series will premiere on March 20 on Netflix. Watch this interview of A’Lelia Bundles about Madame Walker by economist, writer and syndicated columnist Julianne Malveaux.
