Lupita Nyong'o knew she'd 'be a meme' after Will Smith's Oscars slap

During the ceremony on 27 March, the King Richard actor walked onto the stage and slapped the comedian after he compared his wife Jada Pinkett Smith - who has the medical condition alopecia - to G.I. Jane. Nyong'o was seated near Smith, and shortly after the shocking moment, a meme showing her appearing to gasp began to circulate on the Internet. "Once the moment was over, I realised, 'Oh my God, there's no way all this transpired and I'm not in the shot.”
