Lupita Nyong’o is People magazine’s “Most Beautiful Woman In The World.”

The actress certainly has had a huge year, winning the Best Supporting Actress Oscar, being named the new face of Lancôme, and recently gracing the cover of Marie Claire.

Gossip Cop heard from insiders that right from the beginning Nyong’o was the “frontrunner,” and basically the only choice for the cover.

After scooping People for a number of years on the “Sexiest Man Alive” cover — and hearing some moans from Time Inc. — we waited until just hours before the mag’s announcement to release our exclusive.

Reps for the Nyong’o and People did not respond to Gossip Cop for comment.

What do you think of People tapping Nyong’o as its “Most Beautiful Woman”?
