Kenyan actress Lupita Nyong’o (who was actually born in Mexico) celebrated her 2nd cover of American Vogue magazine today. The 32-year-old Oscar winner shines in the high fashion photo layout shot by photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott for the October 2015 issue of Vogue.
In the photo caption on Instagram.com, Lupita wrote:

The photos are indeed stunning, but I have questions.
Is it just me, or is this photo intentionally darker than it needs to be?
And why is she knocking over a chair and climbing the wall like a monkey in this photo?
