The 22-year-old Chelsea star, Lauren James, gained notoriety in Nigeria due to an incident during the FIFA Women’s World Cup round of 16 clash between Nigeria and England, where she unintentionally made headlines for her involvement in a collision with Super Falcons defender, Michelle Alozie.
In a recent interview with Sky Sports, Lauren James shared her wish list of three people she would love to invite over for dinner.

James answered: “You [interviewer], Kevin Hart; he’s very funny. The third person would be probably a singer. I would probably say Burna Boy.”
