ITV bosses are poised to sign superstars Maya Jama and KSI to their biggest Saturday night shows.
Popular Love Island host Maya, 30, is to return to the guessing panel of The Masked Singer for the seventh series.

Britain’s Got Talent bosses, meanwhile, are set to offer KSI, 31, big money to rejoin as a judge for the 2026 series.
The YouTuber and musician proved a hit on Saturday’s launch episode of this year’s series, watched by 5.5million.
A TV insider said: “ITV realise they’ve got a pair of superstars shining on their shows — and they want to ensure they stay there.
“Maya went down a storm with viewers on the last series of The Masked Singer, even though she had big shoes to fill taking over from Rita Ora.
“KSI was also a breath of fresh air on BGT on Saturday.
“He’ll help attract a much younger audience.”
KSI has 55million followers across his social media platforms, including Spotify, Instagram and Tiktok.
Younger people increasingly use the sites to view TV clips.
Maya, seen on Sunday with TV host AJ Odudu at a London Fashion Week event — Lila Moss was at another — joined The Masked Singer when Rita stepped down.
She shared the panel with Mo Gilligan, Jonathan Ross and Davina McCall as well as a line up of celebrity guests.
Rossy described her as “great fun” and said recently that he was looking forward to “doing the next series with her on board”.
ITV were approached for comment.
