Amandla Stenberg in The Hate U Give

“There was an eerie amount of similarities between my life and Starr’s, the character I play in The Hate U Give. I grew up in South Los Angeles but went to a school across town that was mostly white and privileged. Learning the language of that school, but never being quite enough for it, is both Starr’s story and my own. Like her, I learned to compartmentalize parts of myself.”
What was your favorite Halloween costume?
Last year, my girlfriend and I went as Austin Powers and Foxxy Cleopatra. I was Foxxy. In the movie, she’s played by Beyoncé in a big golden wig. So I was giving full naturalista mod vibes. I had all the clothes already, because I usually dress like I’m in the ’70s.
Do you have any new crushes?
I once said Leonardo DiCaprio in Titanic. But I’m gay, so my crushes may have shifted a little bit. I feel that if you’re into ’90s Leo, you might be on the path to being gay; he might be your entry point. When I look at all the boys that I thought were hot when I was younger, they all look like pretty girls. I was just in denial that I really wanted them all to have t*tties. So, now, if you’re into Timothée Chalamet, you could be gay. He’s a very pretty boy.
