Ten year old Quvenzhane Wallis stole hearts in the 2012 movie “Beasts of the Southern Wild”, for which she earned an Oscar nom. Little Q was the youngest actress to be so honored. She went on to star in the critically acclaimed film “12 Years a Slave”.
The accolades and major accomplishments continue to roll in for Q. She was just named the face of Giorgio Armani Jr., a high end fashion line for children and teens.
From Rhymeswithsnitch.com via The Hollywood Reporter:
Armani tell The Hollywood Reporter,
“Quvenzhane is so talented, despite her young age. Her kindness, curiosity and openness towards others really struck me, as they are all traits I admire. It is for this very reason that I wanted her to be the face of Armani Junior. With her insatiable energy, Quvenzhane made the clothing come alive, interpreting it in her own singular way.”
Quvenzhane was just cast in her next feature film, Counting by 7s, playing a genius child having to fend for herself after her adoptive parents die in a car crash.

I’m a big history buff, so when I saw that it was based off true events I had to make myself watch it…it’s not for the faint of heart…I’m not a cryer, but when Lupita got whipped by Michael Fassbender I was balling like a baby…

Same here, @aRoTh. I don't need to go on a rant or anything, but as I've stated before — slave movies and the like make me act up and I need my job…be comin' to work shoulder checkin YT's and that ain't right!
@Future – Don’t remember her in that either. I will watch this again, because if I missed her I missed more..
Ms. Q got it going on! It’s going to be great seeing her grow up on film, I hope her parents are grounded and keep her feet planted.
Feel Good Story! Thanks Sandra :appluad:

The movie as a whole wasn’t as bad/graphic as I thought. ONly a few scenes really. Maybe I expected the worst.
But I don’t remember her in the movie either.
She WASN’T the boy asking for his momma. Now that I think about it, that was pretty dramatic.
Lupita MADE that movie tho. The dude that was “star” was sickening. That movie was all about Lupita.
At the risk of sounding like the road Schowler
Until they tell Nate story; I’m good and I know how I’m going to teach my child already.
Belle ain’t slave and I’m here for it.
But I also am off slave chit too I ain’t even see Django
Ms. Quad, Ms. Quad, Ms. Quad Ms. Quad
Why do they continually call her that?
@Man did you see what I left you downstairs about Hernadez?
so i’m working over here in the pace office today & the office lady that works here & i were having a convo about our plans for memorial day. i mention that we might go to the beach (pensacola beach has a huge gay presence for mem day weekend on the beach, it’s become a tradition) ANYwho she’s like u going to pcola beach, i’m like prolly not i don’t do crowds like that plus i dont want to bring my 9 year old son around menz kissin & whatnot. & she’s like yeah i don’t care about anyone being gay, but it’s not my thing. i said idc either but i don’t want my son confused by seeing 2 men carrying on. to which she’s like yeah it’s like inter-racial dating. i don’t agree with it.
wtf that got to do with anything tho? she goes on to say that her son was seeing a black girl in high school & she found out about it & told him it wasn’t right & that his father would turn over in his grave. & that she put an end to it right then & there.
bish WHET?!

Fay what it is cuz?
@Fay, I guess a part of me LIKES fukcing with dummies. And all my emotions show on my face as well — I need NO WORDS! Years ago (in Seattle), an older white co-worker ran up on me and said: “…oh, my daughter dates a black!…” I said: “A black WHAT?” shoulda seent that old white lady’s face crumple up whilst she searched for her next words.
I agree with your first part tm. I just excuse my self.

Discrimination is discrimination, but Lil Butter hasn’t asked me why Sally has a brown dad and a peach mom. He has asked me why Hudson has two moms though.

I went to HS with 2 sisters with diffrent dads. One was LSLH the other was just LSRH (regular hair). Folks weren’t mean to the other BUT there was comparisons made. Honestly since I have lilmissy I wouldn’t procreate with a yt, PR, or other dude. Date sure, marry even but we wouldn’t have babies together.
All’s fair when it comes to phucking. Everyone “discriminates” in one way or another when it comes to phuckin. Whether it’s cause of race (I’ll talk to any race but Asian) or looks (no ugly women) or size (no fat women).
Everyone discriminates.
Date sure, marry even but we wouldn’t have babies together.

I’m gonna go out on a limb and say it’s cuz Missy doesn’t want unfair (hurtful) comparisons made between her two very different hued children. I got so pissy when people would compare me and my sister (and we have the same mama and deedy)…but an unfortunate few would say things like: “I’m trying to decide who’s the prettiest.” And promptly get TOLD! We don’t play that. GTFOHWTBS mayne!

I know think you have to be racist to not be into IR. It may be a preference thing.

Oh, ya’ll was just comical with it!!!
She looks adorable. Glad she’s continuing to get work.
I don’t recall seeing her in 12 Years a Slave, but imdb.com has her credited as playing the role of Solomon’s young daughter.
She is so adorable and simply beautiful!
