“Lupita is unquestionably beautiful but her name is not easy to pronounce, which made it a tough day for our nation’s news anchors,” the late night host explained.
On Wednesday, the editing team at “Jimmy Kimmel Live” pieced together a hilarious montage of broadcasters butchering the star’s unique name.
“I wish people had asked John Travolta to announce Lupita Nyong’o's name,” Kimmel jokingly added. “He did such a nice job at the Oscars.”
