Briana KoenemanLooks like we might finally know who's dating Hollywood's newest It Girl, Lupita Nyong'o.
We were pretty positive the lucky guy was fellow Oscar-winner Jared Leto when the rumored couple made headlines. (Via Glamour)
But then, some thought she could be canoodling with her "12 Years a Slave" costar Chiwetel Ejiofor.
Even her other costar, Michael Fassbender, got thrown into the pile of Nyong'o's potential love interests. (Via Fox Searchlight Pictures / "12 Years a Slave")
But Us Weekly reports Nyong'o's boyfriend is none of the above. A source told the mag that the 31-year-old actress is dating 36-year-old rapper K'Naan.
That same source revealed the couple has been seeing each other since September. But the rumors didn't really start swirling until after several outlets called them out for cuddling in public. (Via Daily Mail)
The two lovebirds reportedly bonded over their shared interest in African issues — Nyong'o is apparently a huge fan of his humanitarianism. (Via Warner Bros. / "Ellen")
But Us Weekly's sources say the two are trying to take things slow.
K'Naan has two sons from a previous marriage, and Nyong'o apparently hasn't met them yet. (Via A&M / Octone Records / K'Naan)
Reps for both Nyong'o and K'Naan have yet to comment on this rumored relationship. But if it's true — we think they're a pretty darn cute couple.
