AJ Odudu

AJ Odudu is one of the nation’s most recognisable broadcasters. With bags of energy and her Lancashire charm, she is one of the UK’s leading presenters. Born to Nigerian parents, AJ grew up with her seven siblings in Blackburn and has a degree in English & Politics.

AJ is currently the co-host of ITV’s Big Brother and Celebrity Big Brother alongside Will Best. The pair have hosted ‘The Original Social Experiment’ since its reboot in 2023. In April 2025, AJ presented the second season of ITV’s Celebrity Big Brother, which featured high-profile US contestants JoJo Siwa and Mickey Rourke, driving the show to reach a wider international audience – with 8 million streams in the first week. The series generated huge buzz across social media and captured attention from audiences around the globe. The Big Brother brand has now surpassed 100 million streams for ITV.

AJ can also be seen teaming up with Vernon Kay to co-host the ITV series, M&S: ‘Dress The Nation’, a design competition series that follows 10 of Britain’s best amateur clothes designers as they compete to secure the role of junior designer at M&S’ headquarters.
