Lupita Nyong'o becomes a Cat Lady
Lupita Nyong'o Says Adopting a Cat Helped Mend Her Broken Heart: "I Was Flirting With Depression" https://t.co/16CmStTMKs
- The Hollywood Reporter (@THR) June 4, 2024
The star will be in the "A Quiet Place: Day One" releasing on June 28, and her character owns a cat. Being afraid of cats, she asked if they could change the animal to an armadillo. Nyong’o’s role in the A Quiet Place prequel is a young woman who, while on a day trip to New York City, finds herself in the middle of an alien invasion.
After intense “cat therapy,” Nyong’o then adopted her own kitty, whose adoption coincided with a gut-wrenching break-up from Selema Masekela. Arriving at Best Friends Animal Society in search for a pet, she saw a sign. “There was a poster that said something like, ‘Not over your ex? Foster a cat.’ It was spot-on.”
The kitty's name is Yoyo.
