Lupita Nyong’o Casts For The Movie Star Wars 7. The Money She Earns Will Throw You Off Your Seat

Lupita Nyong’o is now making more money than her dad Senator Anyang Nyong’o will ever make in his political career even if he is given a loan by the Central Bank itself.

Why on earth would one individual earn so much money, I mean Lupita can give the entire Kenyan population of 40 plus million people 1 million US dollar each and still remain with an awesome chunk for herself. Did I say she could give one million dollar to every Kenyan? That is like Ksh 90 million each with the current exchange rate, so imagine how much Lupita makes.

The Hollywood actress has been included in the cast of Star Wars 7, her breakthrough is highly attributed to her performance in the movie 12 Years a Slave which earned her an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress. Lupita will be joining the talented Gwendoline Christie in the cast of the movie.
