Oscar-winning actress Lupita Nyong'o feels entertainment industry exploded into her life and people suddenly started recognising her.

The 31-year-old star described her Oscar win as very confusing and numbing, reported The Daily Mirror.

"It just feels like the entertainment industry exploded into my life. People who seemed so distant all of a sudden were right in front of me and recognising me, before I recognised them!" she said.

"I was just repeating my name in my head, so I didn't know whether I had said my name or they had said my name! And then my little brother screamed, and time was suspended and it was just noise in my head," she said about her experience of winning her first Oscar.
