Sure, they say September's the ~big~ Vogue cover, but after seeing the glory that is Lupita Nyong'o on next month's Vogue, it might be time to embrace October as the iconic month.
Nyong'o tweeted a cute video this morning of the first time she saw the cover herself.
She also made this video with the publication, and it's full of gems – like Nyong'o's mom, Dorothy, teaching her how to make ugali.
For her cover story, writer Elizabeth Rubin and photographer Mario Testino followed Nyong'o to her family home in Kisumu, Kenya, where she was basically iconic all over the place AS USUAL.
Like in this photo of little Lupita, which we all must cherish.
Basically everything about all of this is incredible.
We do not deserve her. You can check out her Vogue amazingness here.
