Oscar-winning actress Lupita Nyong'o says life is not easy when you are in showbiz.
The "12 Years a Slave" actress said she earlier thought life will back to normal post the Academy Awards, reported E!Online.
"You know, I thought it would come to an end after the Oscars. I thought the Oscars would come and go and then all of a sudden everything would be back to normal and I'd be back in my apartment," she said.
The 32-year-old, who graced the cover of the May 2015 issue of Britain's Harper's Bazaar magazine.
"You know what kept me sane? Not knowing. Having never really experienced that before... Because this was new territory I had no normal. I had no sense of what was normal in that world. It was all new. I don't think (I would attend that many events again). Not to that extent.
