Patti Boulaye (née Patricia Ngozi Ebigwei) (born 1954) is a Nigerian-born British actress, entertainer, and businessperson. For many years, she was the face of Lux beauty soap.

Boulaye, a Conservative activist, attracted criticism for reportedly saying, "The boys accused of killing Stephen Lawrence, I can assure you, were either National Front or Labour."[1]

In 1999 she successfully sued The Guardian after the paper wrongly quoted her as saying that she supported apartheid. In fact she had spoken of the importance of supporting "the party", i.e. the Conservative Party, but this was misheard by The Guardian's reporter.
