Nyong’o will compete against Jennifer Lawrence, Julia Roberts, Oprah Winfrey, and June Squibb at the SAG Awards airing Saturday on TNT and TBS.
She’s also up for an ensemble award along with her 12 Years A Slave castmates
The Kenyan star said she decided to become an actress after watching Whoopi Goldberg’s Oscar-nominated performance in Steven Spielberg’s The Color Purple. She said;

‘Whoopi Goldberg looked like me, she had hair like mine, she was dark like me,’ ‘I’d been starved for images of myself. I’d grown up watching a lot of American TV. There was very little Kenyan material, because we had an autocratic ruler who stifled our creative expression.’

She’ll next role will be a flight attendant, Gwen in the action flick Non-Stop – due out February 28 – with Liam Neeson, Julianne Moore, and Michelle Dockery.
Nice one Lupita! Keep doing Africa Proud.
