There's set to be a change to the judging panel for 2025's season of The Masked Singer – with ITV announcing that Maya Jama will be replacing Rita Ora in the line-up. Pop star Ora had been part of the panel since the show aired its first run back in 2020, but Love Island host Jama will now be stepping into her shoes alongside returning faces Jonathan Ross, Davina McCall and Mo Gilligan. As ever, the panel will be tasked with playing detective to guess which famous faces are hiding behind a series of elaborate costumes, after the celebrities have taken to the stage to sing musical numbers and give some cryptic clues as to their identity.

Meanwhile, Joel Dommett will once again be returning to host the series in what is now the sixth season of the hit show. "I'm such a Masked Singer fan, so joining the panel alongside Davina, Jonathan, and Mo—and of course working with Joel—is going to be so much fun!" Jama said. "I can't wait to figure out who's underneath all those incredible costumes, vibe to their performances, and get front-row seats to the unmaskings.



I've watched the show for a long time, so I'm definitely bringing my A-game to the panel!" ITV's Head of Entertainment & Daytime Commissioning Katie Rawcliffe described Jama as "sensational" and said that she "can't wait" to see her in action on the panel.
