A picture of pop singer Rihanna and Kenyan actress Lupita Nyong’o has led to a social media storm on an idea they could star together in a film.

The Paris fashion show photo was shared by fans of the actress and singer with the comment: “Rihanna looks like she scams rich white men and Lupita is the computer smart best friend that helps plan the scams”.

It caught the attention of Oscar winner Nyong’o a few days ago and now Rihanna has tweeted that she likes the idea as well.

Since then, social media has been ablaze with suggestions of how to develop the idea, with hundreds of thousands liking the original tweet.
