Lupita Addresses Rumors of Dating Janelle Monáe
Kenyan award-winning actress Lupita Nyong'o has denounced claims that she is in a relationship with American singer Janelle Monae.
Why speaking in an interview with Rolling Stone magazine, Lupita said she understands why people make such claims. Lupita spoke of her first hug with Janelle, terming it one of the most genuine hugs she has ever received. The two have been friends since meeting at the Met Gala in 2014 when Lupita had just won an Oscar for '12 Years a Slave'.
"This world is still extremely new to me and unbelievable. Janelle came up to me and just gave me the most real hug. I think we may have swayed to the music. She was just like, 'I'm so proud of you, and just thank you for being you," she recalled.
Lupita mentioned that Janelle “has a magnetism” which enthrals many of her followers. She added that she doesn't mind being associated with her in any way. In 2018, Janelle disclosed that she identifies as bisexual and non-binary. Lupita responded to Janelle's disclosure saying that "Then later I read about pansexuality and was like, 'Oh, these are things that I identify with too.' I'm open to learning more about who I am,"
Speaking on Red Table Talk, Lupita talked about her gender identity saying that she doesn't see herself as solely a woman. She added that God is so much greater than gender.
"And if I am from God, I am everything. But I will always, always stand with women. I will always stand with Black women. But I just see everything that I am, beyond the binary." she said.

Lupita, there isn’t nothing wrong with being a lesbian, come out of the closet!
Ingekuwa bora kama sisi sote ambao ni wazaliwa wa COHO (Continent Of Human Origins) tungekuwa wajasiri na kukubali ya kwamba, tayari tumeshapigwa msasa (BBR Brainwashed Beyond Redemption) kiwango ambacho hamma njia yoyote ya kubadilika tena hivi karibuni au kwenye siku za usoni na kurudia asili yetu ya zamani.
iliyobaki dalili ya asili yetu ya COHO, bi rangi ya ngozi yetu na nywele zetu pekee. Yaani, kusema kweli, hamna tofauti yoyote baina yetu na ndugu na dada zetu wa asili ya COHO waliouzwa utumwani nje ya bara la COHO, miaka mingi iliyopita.
Tusiwe wepesi kumkosoa (criticize) dada yetun Lupita kwa kuchangia jinsi anavyofikiria juu ya urafiki baina ya wananume kwa wanaume, wanawake kwa wanawake, na mwishowe wanaume kwa wanawake.
Dalili ZA MCOHO (mzaliwa wa COHO) aliyepigwa msasa:
1. Ana jina au majina ya kigeni
2. Anasema lugha ya kikoloni pamoja na marafiki zake, kazini, bungeni, au shuleni.
3. Imani yake ni ya kigeni: yaani asili ya imani yake inatokana na marehemu mwana wa Aminah (Mohammed) au Marehemu mwana wa Mariamu).
4. Mila zake asili yake ni ya kigeni - husherehekea sikukuu zote zilizo za asili ya Yuropa au Uarabuni. Isitoshe, anaadhimisha sikukuu zinazotokana na mtoto wa Mariamu na yule mwingine wa Aminah.
5. Anachukia rangi ya ngozi na nywele zake za kiCOHO.
6. Hajiamini na pia kuthamini historia yake wala hataki kujua!
7. Mambo yake ya ngono (sex) yana msingi na Yuropa au Uarabuni.
8. Ameoa au kuolewa na mtu wa asili ya watu waliomtawala na kumfanya mtumwa.
Iwapo wewe ni mfuasi wa jambo moja kutokana na orodha niliyoandika kutoka hapa, usiwe mwepesi kumkejeli mwenzako ambaye ni mfuasi wa namba nyingine nilizoandika hapa.
Amevuka mpaka apate more roles....when you shelf life is on the balance, you invent yourself .............just saying!
Lupita, owachonia, if you can when you can..RUN. Continue chasing your career. Isijikoroge, usikorogwe na hawa manyauthi. Mapenzi kwa wanadamu wenye jinsia moja ni halam, na ubwanyenye unaohitilafiana na kutositili nyege zilizoumbwa zikaumbika kiasili. Wanaume kutembea kwa mkunyato na utaratibu wa kike ni kuwa na akili iliokorogwa hadi ikakosa vikalio. America imekoroga wananchi wake kwa ushoga na usagaji, mavalio ya herini na makorokoro masikioni na wanaume ni tishio kwa vizazi vijavyo. Kila binadamu bila shaka ana haki ana haki ya kuchagua hatima ya mwelekeo wa maisha yake. Tulinde mila na utamaduni wa Kiafrika popote tulipo. Najua nimezusha mtafaruku na mjadala ambao huna suluhisho kamwe, lakini nimeshaitema itemeke.

I thought she was dating the late Masekela son
Perhaps she likes being dinged by both him and her, bisexual?!? She should seek freedom by coming clean, ie, coming out of the closet!
Once you sign up in Hollywood you ve sold your life with or without ya knowledge and you will never recover without repentance. Kanye West, they sacrificed his mom and when he tried to accuse them they took away all his stuff. Jamie Foxx is next in pipeline
Maybe both were having a kiss downstairs
