Samira Mighty wants an A-Lister to slide into her dms ‘one day’

Samira Mighty wants a Hollywood A-lister to slide into her DMs.
The ‘Love Island’ star – who split with on-screen love interest Frankie Foster in August because of cheating rumours – is best known for starring in the hit musical ‘Dreamgirls’ since November 2017, and now has admitted she hopes "one day " a famous face will message her and take her on a date.
Asked at the ‘A House with a Clock in Its Walls’ premiere whether any had contacted her, Samira exclusively told BANG Showbiz: "Not really, where are you? No they haven’t. Maybe when winter comes around! Maybe one day! Come on now!"
The 22-year-old ITV2 reality contestant shocked fans after she decided to pack up her belongings and leave the Spanish island in order to be reunited with her beau Frankie even though they only knew each other for a week.
However, it was not meant to be as Frankie confirmed in July that he spent the night with another woman.
Despite her break up, the West End star remains hopeful and has claimed she had previously dated ‘Star Trek’ actor Chris Pine, 38, after meeting at the GQ Man of the Year Awards.
Fans and theatre-goers might recognise Samira from her appearances in ‘Mamma Mia!’ and 2017’s ‘Beauty And The Beast’, but Samira’s success on stage isn’t something she’s going to rush back to as the star wants time to "relax".
Samira added: "Yeah I’m taking a bit of time to relax because I did it for two years and that was enough for me, there’s so many other things I want to do."
