The revelation came during a recent interview with Sky News, where the 22-year-old English footballer shared her fantasy dinner guest list. When asked which three people she would invite over for dinner, Lauren James cheekily responded, “You [the interviewer], Kevin Hart; he’s very funny. The third person would probably be a singer. I would say Burna Boy.”
Lauren James, who has been making waves as both an England international and Chelsea midfielder, candidly professed her admiration for Burna Boy during the interview. Her declaration of affection for the Nigerian superstar musician adds a captivating layer to her already impressive football career.
