Who is LizLaz, the German influencer and singer who claimed she was offered money to speak against Virat Kohli?

German influencer and singer LizLaz is once again making headlines. This time, she claimed that an unidentified journalist offered her money to make false allegations against Indian cricketer Virat Kohli.

However, she has not revealed the identity of the journalist.

This is not the first time LizLaz has been in the news in connection with Kohli.


The influencer went viral in April this year after the Royal Challengers Bengaluru star allegedly “liked” one of her Instagram photos.



Kohli later issued a clarification, saying, “I'd like to clarify that while clearing my feed, it appears the algorithm may have mistakenly registered an interaction. There was absolutely no intent behind it. I request that no unnecessary assumptions be made. Thank you for your understanding.”
