Lupita Nyong’o rumored to be dating rapper K’naan
Although it’s been rumored that she’s been dating actor Jared Leto, has Lupita Nyong’o been quietly dating rapper K’naan? That’s the question being asked after the Oscar winning beauty was spotted with the emcee shortly after her historic win.
Earlier this week paparazzi snapped photos of Nyong’o leaving ABC’s “Live! With Kelly & Michael” with K’naan, who clutched her Oscar for her. The two also seemed to be walking hand in hand.
And while most people were oblivious to the fact that the 36-year-old Somalian rapper whose real name is Keinan Abdi Warsame, was friends with the Kenyan beauty, 31, his Instagram followers noted that the twosome posed together three months ago.
The dimly lit photo (below) shows only their teeth and K’naan captioned it; “Me and Lupita Nyong’o without flash. #ProudToBeUnseen.”
Prior to the K’naan/Nyong’o news, Jared Leto told Ellen Degeneres that he and Nyong’o were together after she noted the actress in their now infamous Oscar selfie.
“There’s your girlfriend [Nyong’o] right there,” said Degeneres.
“Yeah,” replied Leto.
