Is Lupita Nyongo’s brother wearing out his welcome?

Peter, the Oscar Award winning actresses 19-year-old brother, is catching a tad bit of heat, for what some consider embarrassing Hollywood behavior. In short, some suggest his OD’ing with celebrity selfies is a bit on the tacky side. Highly opinionated folk like Wendy Williams have jokingly chastised the Stetson University freshman. And the memes of him photobombing different photos are endless.

Lupita doesn’t seem to be fazed by the attention Peter’s received, but admits that he may have ‘upstaged’ her, in the infamous Oscar Group Selfie. Anywho, take a look at some of Peter’s celebrity selfies.

    Lupita girl, come get your brother!

    LOL, yeah he’s getting it in :-) I guess he’s in a privileged position and VERY excited!

    Lupita is the “IT” girl of the moment.. Her brother is making the most of his sister’s new found fame!

    The reality is the celebs he is taking pics with are the same celebs trying to get in pics with his sister. But i guess, since he’s not famous, its not acceptable? Oh…

    I dont see the big deal nor do I consider that photobombing. He is not a celebrity and because he was excited probably ASKED all these stars for a picture. Its not like he crashed the event, he was invited along with his sister and got the opportunity to meet a lot of famous people. I certainly would have asked eveyone in there for a picture as anyone would do. He’s a young kid and was excited. No big deal in my opinion.

    I think to each his or her own. It is kind of like when we were young and our parents would say sit still and don’t talk to anybody when we went out. How is it any different from articles talking about Jared’s mom? Maybe he was just living in the moment and having a little fun. The recognition and the Oscars don’t happen everyday (However, it was a little odd that he was in the oscar selfie in front of Angelina and Brad Pitt LOL) But he isnt out getting drunk or ruining Lupita’s reputation. It seems he is very well liked among the celebs or so many wouldn’t have agreed to pose with him. If they like it, I love it.

    I don’t see that there is a problem. Who wouldn’t want to take pics with the stars. If Wendy Williams can throw shade and gossip about who she wants than Peter should be able to enjoy the ride with his sister. Lupita doesn’t seem to have a problem with this. Wendy should mind her own business and worry about her own family as she’s the only one I’ve heard make public comments.

    @ Chanel I totally agree with you. Wendy need to shut the hell up, had she not said something, this wouldn’t have became a topic…sometimes she can irk my nerves!
