My Jama Reportedly in talks to hold The BRIT Awards in February 2023.
It was claimed the 28-year-old host could take the reins after impressing bosses as a reporter at the event earlier this year, when comedian Mo Gilligan hosted.
It’s been a busy week for Maya, who was just confirmed as a newbie Island of love host, replacing Laura Whitmore.

If chosen, Maya would become the first solo host of the annual music awards ceremony held in London since Kat Deeley presented it in 2004.
The source said The sun: “Maya Jama has proven herself to be a confident and competent presenter and young people love her, which is key for an event like the Brit Awards.
“Since helping out earlier this year, her star power has grown and she has been in talks to host the show herself.
Wonderful! It’s been a busy week for Maia, who has just been confirmed as the new host of Love Island, replacing Laura Whitmore
“There are many contenders vying to host the show this year and nothing has been signed, but Maya has made it clear that she would love to take on the role.”
However, the BRITs, which take place on February 11, could clash with Love Island’s winter series in South Africa, which it will host in the new year.
MailOnline has contacted representatives for Maya for comment.
Amazing: If chosen, Maya would become the first solo host of the annual music awards ceremony held in London since Kat Deeley in 2004 (Maya at the Brit Awards last year)
Last year, Masked Singer judge Mo took over from Jack Whitehall, who stepped down from the BRITs after four years at the awards.
It comes after it was announced that Maya will host the first of two series of Love Island, which will be filmed in South Africa from early 2023.
In a statement, Maia said: “I’ve always been a huge Love Island fan and am thrilled to be hosting one of the nation’s favorite shows! I can’t wait to get to the villa to meet all the islanders.’
Both Maya and Love Island shared a video of her scrolling through stories about her being a rumored host on various media outlets to confirm the news.

The Love Island account shared: “Ok the rumors are true. Say hi to your new host #LoveIsland @mayajama!”
Maya wrote in the comments section: SO EXCITED. TAKE ME TO THIS ISLAND. ❤️’
Fans seemed to think she was the perfect choice to replace Laura.
They immediately tweeted: “Mya Jama will make a great Love Island host.”
“My Jama hosting Love Island is great news!”
“My Jama is hosting Love Island and she’s going to be hotter than any of the girls on the actual show.”
Director of Reality Programming & Acquisitions Paul Mortimer said: “Finding a new host to follow the wonderful Laura Whitmore has never been easy.
“In Maya Jama, however, we have another famous fan of the show who will be a great addition to the Love Island family.
Oh no! However, the UK tournament, which takes place on February 11, could clash with the Love Island winter tournament in South Africa, which it will host in the new year.
“Cool, charming and charismatic, I speak for us all when I say that Maya will also bring a unique presentation style to the show, just like Laura and of course the much-missed Caroline Flack. We are very happy to have her on board.”
Laura announced in August this year that she was leaving the show and would not be hosting the next series of the ITV2 dating show.
The 37-year-old Irish host joined back in 2020 and hosted the hugely popular reality show and its spin-off series Aftersun for three series.
cheers! It comes after Maya was confirmed as the new presenter and will front the first of two series to be filmed in South Africa from early 2023.
