Maya Jama could never be a contestant on Love Island
'Love Island' host Maya Jama says she does not have the confidence to be a contestant on the ITV2 reality series.
Maya Jama could never be a contestant on 'Love Island'.
The 29-year-old star has presented the ITV2 reality show since 2023 but explained that she would never have the confidence to "strut out of the house in a bikini" in the way the female islanders do.
In an interview with OK! magazine, Maya said: "I would not be able to, at any age, strut out of the house in a bikini in front of men that are judging me based on just one sentence and what I look like.
"The confidence of the people that go on! They've got a different kind of juice."
Maya celebrates her 30th birthday on Wednesday (14.08.24) and explained that she is looking for new challenges after achieving many of her dreams at a young age.
She said: "I feel like I need to set new goals because I have been so fortunate that all my childhood goals have been achieved now before I am 30.
"(This) is another milestone, but focus on your job first then plan the party after!"
