For the interview, Lupita talked about the pitfalls of fame. “The not-so-fun part of all this is that when I don’t feel like being famous, I still am,” she told the magazine. “When you’re in the middle of Manhattan and you have to pop into Starbucks to use the restroom and everyone recognizes you when you’re waiting in line, it’s awkward.”
