Lupita Nyong'o's Oscars dress covered in 6,000 pearls

Last year's best-actress Oscar winner seems to be gunning for the best-dressed prize this year.

Yep, Lupita Nyong'o is back and she's killing the red carpet in a customCalvin Klein dress that's covered in 6,000 pearls. You read that correctly: 6,000.

So, that begs several questions:

1. How heavy is it?

2. Will it be hellish to sit in?

3. Or does it feel like those beaded carseat mats from the '80s?

But, on the red carpet, Lupita told ABC it's all good:

"It's actually quite comfortable," she said.

If you say so, girl!

Twitter went wild over the bejeweled dress.

Some folks were skeptical the dress was comfortable.
