Lupita Nyong’o’s gravity-defying Met Gala hair do

LUPITA Nyong’o’s hair was sky high at the Met Gala, courtesy of a hair piece that needed to be seen to be believed.

The 33-year-old wore a custom Calvin Klein Collection green sequin dress with Jimmy Choo shoes, but it was her gravity-defying hairstyle that had everyone talking.

No doubt the ‘do required loads of hair extensions, backcombing, and hairspray and a cleverly positioned instrument to keep it up there all night.

Some compared her look to Marge Simpson while others said she took inspiration from Cindy Lou Who from 2000s How The Grinch Stole Christmas.

All we know is that it would have been an interesting cab ride there for Nyong’o.
