Maya Jama gassed to be joining Celebrity Juice panel
Maya said on Instagram “I am now part of the Celebrity Juice family which is bloody mental considering I grew up watching the show & basically wanted to be Keith Lemon as a teen. Very nuts & such a blessing being on a show that allows me to be my true unfiltered self. If you know me you’ll know how gassed I am. So look out for my little head as I’ll be a regular on the show now.”
Maya is to joining multi award-winning Celebrity Juice as a regular panellist, following in the footsteps of Gino D’Acampo. Celebrity Juice, hosted by Keith Lemon, will return for its 25th series in April on ITV2 with team captains Emily Atack and Laura Whitmore.
TV presenter Maya becomes a regular guest on the panel after multiple appearances in the last series in which she threw herself into everything Keith asked of her.
The last series of Celebrity Juice accumulated an average audience of 708K viewers on ITV2, making it one of the channel’s most popular shows. The new 10×30 minute series was commissioned by Paul Mortimer, Controller of Digital Channels at ITV and is a Talkback production, a Fremantle label.
