Maya Jama took to Instagram on Thursday to debut her brand new look.

Clearly chomping at the bit to get to the salon after the lifting of lockdown 2.0, the presenter, 26, filmed herself showing off her newly blonde tresses.

The honeyed locks cascaded around her shoulders as she posed in a white ensemble, with Maya evidently thrilled with the result.

‘I’m a blonde now hunnies!’ she declared. ‘I was going to post a picture but got too excited!

‘I’m like a whole new b****! I think this is the new me hunz. What shall I call myself? Lena!’

Maya enjoyed a whole day of pampering, also documenting her trip to get a facial.

Maya’s giddiness comes as she revealed she made her first million at the age of 24. 

The TV presenter opened up about her career success in a chat with the Evening Standard but insisted that she isn’t money motivated.

And all of Maya’s hard earned pennies will be going on herself and chosen loved ones, as she revealed that she’s currently enjoying single life and isn’t on the hunt for a man.  

Back, in November, it was revealed that Maya banked £1.3m via her company MIJ & Co in figures obtained by The Sun. 

However, Maya has since revealed that she actually became a millionaire ‘two years ago’, when she was just 24, and used some of her hard-earned cash to buy her very first home in London this summer, with the beauty currently living with a pal. 

On her success, Maya added to the publication that though being a millionaire is ‘nice’, it was never her goal as she’s never really been motivated by cash.

 She said: ‘You do something you enjoy and then you get paid for it and you’re like: “Oh my gosh, this is so cool!”.’

Meanwhile, Maya, who split from rapper Stormzy last year after four years, also opened up on why dating is not on the cards for the time being. 

She said: ‘It’s different for everybody, but I’ve accepted that now isn’t the best time to find somebody’, adding that she’s ‘not actually looking.’

The stunner has said in the past that she was ‘nervous’ about future relationships, but for now though, she’s concentrating solely on herself.

Sharing her goals for lockdown, Maya said she’ll strive to ‘maintain herself’, and hopes that if she can remain ‘the same’ person as she was went she first entered lockdown, then that’ll be ‘good enough’ for her.

The Bristol native rose to fame when she dated Stormzy between 2015 and 2019. This helped build her reputation, going from hosting a show on community radio station Rinse FM in London to landing her own slot on Radio 1.

In 2017 she became the youngest person ever to co-host the Mobo Awards, and she has since appeared on the likes of MTV’s True Love Or True Lies, The Circle and Peter Crouch: Save Our Summer.

She has also worked with clothing brands PrettyLittleThing, Adidas, Gap and Kurt Geiger over recent years.

Maya is known for her outspoken sass, and hit back at a troll on Instagram recently after he branded her a ‘sl*t’ while commenting under one of her posts.

Hurling back an insult by calling him a ‘pr**k’ and sharing one of his Instagram pictures with her 1.9 million followers, the star wrote on her Instagram Story: ‘I’m childish but…’

TV and radio personality Maya captioned the image of the man, which showed him sitting over a pint of beer: ‘If you can’t beat ’em.’

She then rounded off her trio of posts with a brief video of herself wearing a monochrome face mask as she stroked her chin, with Princess Superstar’s Bad Babysitter playing in the background.

The star also shared the three images on her Twitter account, captioning her unpleasant encounter: ‘A short story.’
