“Ooooooh,” says a chastened-sounding Quvenzhané Wallis in this interview. “I forgot to do my homework today!” Vogue‘s André Leon Talley sat down with the youngest-ever Academy Award nominee and attempted repeatedly to get her to talk about fashion. “Is pink your favorite color?” he asks. “Do you think you’re going to be wearing pink to the Oscars, is that the color choice for you?” Wallis raises her arms into a slow, deliberate shrug.
Instead, Wallis wants to name her favorite musicians — Selena Gomez, Nicki Minaj, and Demi Lovato among them — and bop along to Frank Ocean.
