It's hard not to fall for Awkwafina, the hilarious native New Yorker who's busting moves at the mic and on the screen for a few years now. The rapper/comedian behind the hilarious "My Vag" and "NYC Bitche$" videos is also the actress being featured in 'Ocean's 8' and 'Crazy Rich Asians." Born Nora Lum, she came up in Forest Hills, Queens, and in our new 'World According To Awkwafina' interview, she explains her roots in the city's largest borough, confesses her addiction to halal street meat (with room temp white sauce), gives a history of her hip-hop loves (shout out Necro!) and explains some NYC subway protocol.
