Simon Cowell chooses Maya Jama as the presenter and host of his new show Walk the Line.
Maya is know for her presenting skills on shows like Celebrity Juice, Celebrity Goggle Box and recently played Brenda in the Netflix series ‘The Duchess’.
Maya excitedly took to Twitter this morning to announce her new roll.
Press release:
Maya Jama is one of the hardest working and most exciting presenters in the industry. She set a new record as the youngest ever host of the MOBO Awards, she hosted the EE BAFTA film red carpet, ITV’s Brit Awards Backstage show, Stand up to Cancer and Comic Relief. She’s recently been on TV screens presenting Save Our Summer and Glow Up. She’s a regular on Celebrity Juice, Celebrity Goggle Box and on the panel of ITV’s award winning show Don’t Hate the Playaz. She then recently made her acting debut as Brenda in Katherine Ryan’s Netflix series ‘The Duchess’.
Walk The Line is a high octane series offering music acts a chance to win a life changing prize pot of £500,000. The musical acts - be they soloists, duos, bands, or choirs - will take to the stage to perform for the nation, as well as Simon Cowell and a panel of judges to be confirmed in due course.
But to win the money, talent alone isn’t enough - the contestants will need nerves of steel as they determine whether to cash out or physically Walk The Line and risk it all to stay in the competition.
Maya Jama said: “If someone said to me, describe your dream job. It would be this! I literally couldn’t be more excited to be working with Syco, Lifted Entertainment and the incredible team at ITV on Walk The Line.”
Katie Rawcliffe, ITV Head of Entertainment said “Maya is an exciting talent who brings a fresh energy, star power and stellar credentials to Walk The Line. We’re looking forward to working with her and introducing this brilliant new format to viewers later in 2021.”
