Quvenzhané Wallis has another history making move to put under her belt. She’s most known for her roles in Beasts of the Southern Wild and her upcoming lead in Annie. Now she’s the newest face of Armani Junior— making her Armani’s first child celebrity endorser at just 10-years-old!
She released a statement earlier today and said:
“I’m so happy to be chosen by Mr. Armani to be his ambassador for Armani Junior. I felt the same excitement when I got cast for a major film. Me? Wow! I was honored to wear his custom gown to the Oscars. It made me feel like a princess. When I saw Mr. Armani’s Prive show in New York, the dresses were so pretty … I had too many favorites. Afterwards when I met him, I realized Mr. Armani is such a nice man. I liked that that he was so thoughtful. It’s fun to wear Armani Junior since I really like the clothes. It’s young. It’s cool. My friends are going to want to borrow all my clothes.”

Wallis has already made history when she became the youngest star ever to win an Oscar at last year’s Academy Awards.
