Lupita and Cat

Joseph Quinn and Lupita Nyong'o

First, I appreciate Joseph's effort here; something doesn't QUITE hang together here. Did the shirt need to be lighter so that the jacket stands out more? Are the pants... just kinda weird? Lupita looks like a refreshing glass of pink lemonade. And then...

ENTER SCHNITZEL. Lupita adopted a cat during Covid (I think that's when it was) and apparently astonished herself by how much of a cat person she has turned out to be? It was very sweet to watch unfold, and now she is helping her co-star through a major press junket.

And Schnitzel is trying to be on the forefront of Backward Bow Ties. He's the Celine Dion of neckwear: Just FLIP IT AROUND!

Look at those eyes! Wow. I will say that Schnitzel looks like he might want to pounce; whether that's distrust of the flashbulbs or because he Saw Something Delicious, I cannot say. I am hoping the latter.

Lupita in Chanel

I don't love Chanel, and I think GENERALLY Lupita can do better, but: That's admittedly actually very good on her, and no, I don't think I am just being unduly influenced by the Eiffel Tower. But it doesn't HURT.
