Quick Question: Who Stole Lupita’s Oscar Dress?
The question on everyone’s lips: Who stole Lupita Nyong’o’s Oscar dress?
Made with 6,000 pearls and valued at $150,000, Calvin Klein’s custom creation for the actress was taken from her room at the London Hotel West Hollywood on Wednesday, and returned two days later. Who on Earth could have possibly done that?
Here, our list of suspects:
1. Lady Gaga
Because she wanted to clean it.
2. Wilma Flintstone
Because she wanted to upgrade from rocks. Go big or go home!
3. The Queen
Because everyone needs new jewelry.
7. Anne Hathaway
Because Chanel didn’t let her keep that necklace from Devil Wears Prada.
9. Iris Apfel
Because there’s no such thing as enough.
11. Pearl from RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 7
12. The Walrus from Alice in Wonderland
13. John Travolta
Because he clearly needs a new necklace. And Scarlett Johansson looks like she doesn’t want to share hers.
14. Prince Manvendra Singh Gohil

February 28, 05:34Am not sure she really bought the dress(maybe she did). This designers create dresses nd lend it to celebs to b worn for important shows/occasions to b showcased. The dresses r returned later. Same with jewellery.
Max
February 28, 05:53She did buy it.. It took months to make and she helped design it. It was made for her.. #couture

February 28, 06:08She bought it? Really? Lulu is balling oh!
*packs boxes nd heads to d airport for America*
Lupita! Hot piece of man coming through for you!

February 28, 06:24She did not buy it, it was loaned to her by CK
Max
February 28, 07:23@Dennis, She bought it.
She has a lot of endorsement deals with cosmetic giants. So she has the money. But she shld be careful though.. Her gowns shouldnt be exceeding $10,000 or she might turn out to be the next MC hammer.
Dennis Macauley
February 28, 07:27She can afford to but she did not buy it max! She couldnt file a missing report on it because she is not the owner

February 28, 09:16Lol I agree
KryxxX
February 28, 05:10Lol! Very funny! And here is a black, insecure individual’s answer:
RACISTS!
Yeah! They stole the dress!
And as for Lady Gaga and her washing gloves, I expected more. Heard on Rick Dees that she was styling herself nd was really hoping for something good. But that!! She looks like a vampire from Dracula or a butcher’s wife!
Oluwadamilare Okoro
February 28, 05:15LOL
Max
February 28, 05:16And that gaga chick looks like she’s really gone gaga.
Maybe it’s pre-marriage traumatic stress disorder. I never knew she’d wanna settle for a dick. She’s clearly stated most times that she liked both.
She looks like a cross b/w Mary poppins and the psycho bitch vamp Catherina Petrova from the vampire diaries.

February 28, 05:39She did not buy the dress, they dont ever buy these red carpet dresses. The designers usually loan it to them and they return it after the ceremony.
I suspect Beyonce, because she wants to give blue ivy pearls
****runs as fast as my frail chicken legs can carry me before the beygency comes after me****
Max
February 28, 05:54She bought it. Even helped design it. Most of them hire their dresses, but few divas actually buy theirs.
chestnut
February 28, 06:04Hmm , na wah oh! I no know say Lupita done reach to buy that kain cloth. She should not come and go and kee hersef because of red-carpet fame o! how often does she think she will get plum roles in hollywood? Even actresses that act major movies every year still rent/borrow gowns and jewels for the red-carpet o!
pinkpanthertb
February 28, 06:08Aswear. She hasn’t gotten to the pinnacle yet o. Babe should be wise with her money o. someone should ask Toni Braxton to send her a memo.
chestnut
February 28, 06:13Hahaha.Dennis u tried it! U know Bey can buy that dress and buy the designer,plus Lupita,right?
KingBey
February 28, 09:48You better run…..how blasphemous of you !!! You don’t speak to the Queen in that manner

February 28, 05:55Em.. let me check
Metrosexual
February 28, 05:56I saw Gus from Cinderella.. and I was like Awww…
Mehn. This suspect list is sooo damn funny. I’d ve said Anne Hathaway stole the dress.. Buh I can see suspicion all over Prince ‘Man-Vendor’…. U know that kinda look u give when u ve just farted, and u don’t want to be caught.
pinkpanthertb
February 28, 05:57Hahahahahahahahaa!!! Metro, you’re in the zone, detective mode and all.
chestnut
February 28, 05:58Lol. Y’all are too messy with that list of suspects.buahaha! (Personally, I’m giving major “side-eye” to the ghost of Anne Boleyn; only a ghost can pull that heist off!)
Happy for Luppy that the dress is back, but now,can we take a moment to talk about “the dress” I’m really interested in? Y’all saw #TheDress,right? And I know I’m not crazy; that thing was White and Gold, no? I mean…it’s like…I feel like I’m losing my mind! Taylor Swift and all those other #TeamBlueAndBlack monkeys are just being used by the devil, right?…right?
pinkpanthertb
February 28, 05:59Oh no, Chestnut. Not again. I thought we dropped that dress in 27th February 2015. The nightmare.
chestnut
February 28, 06:08Lol.I’m sorry pinky,but that thing is still driving me nuts! I feel like all the “blue & black” ppl are in on some kind of collective sick joke
Deola
February 28, 07:53So that dress drama finally reached here…it was white and gold btw, IMO.
Max
February 28, 09:49Bikonu, I saw Blue and black(a washed out kinda black.. Tending towards brown)

KryxxX

pinkpanthertb

Dennis Macauley
February 28, 06:14Me saw blue and gold, and not white and gold!
chestnut
February 28, 06:25The white could look like very pale sky-blue in certain light,so that’s excusable, but at least no one here saw black anywhere,right? *phew* I feel much better!
Lothario
February 28, 06:34Honestly, I was like huh??
Dennis Macauley
February 28, 06:23Max she does not own the dress, it was on loan from Calvin Klein which is why she could not file the heist report herself cos the dress does not belong to her
#TeamKizito
February 28, 07:36Where did they see blue et gold? :s
Absalom
February 28, 08:17LOL, Lupita.
As for that other dress I saw blue and black/dark brown. This article explains the science of the controversy http://www.wired.com/2015/02/science-one-agrees-color-dress/
Max

February 28, 17:15What about simple good ole humour? Some posts spark debates, some others tickle laughter. I can do better, you’re right. This is it.
