The actress was just joking about the whole Miley thing but she did carefully avoid answering the question of whether she was dating the Hollywood hunk
Oscar-nominated actress Lupita Nyong’o is getting good at this fame lark.
Without divulging any actual information – like a pro – on The Ellen Show, the 12 Years a Slave star addressed rumours of a relationship with Jared Leto, completely charmed the audience AND name-dropped parent-outrager Miley Cyrus.
Watch as Ellen asks the multiple award-winning actress whether she is dating the Dallas Buyers Club star – who she’s been spotted getting a bit cosy with a lot recently – before Lupita gracefully deflects by revealing something shocking – that Miley Cyrus broke them up.
Or at least she did according to the US tabloids.
But I thought Miley Cyrus broke us up, that was the last thing I heard?, the stunning star quipped to Ellen.
You know it’s crazy, when I read these rumours, they’re so detailed that even I start to question whether they’re true or not.
If there were an award for the Best Deflection of an Answer by an Actress on a telly chat show then she would win hands down.
Watch her skillful non-answer below.
