Maya Jama has fans doing double-takes after revealing ‘epic’ Halloween costume: ‘You win’

Maya Jama is sending fans wild after revealing her ambitious Halloween costume, which has left many doing double-takes.

The Celebrity Traitors star, who just revealed she has donated what she would have won on the hit BBC show to her chosen charity, revealed her look on Instagram.

Her costume turned out to be Olympic champion Mo Farah, complete with bald cap and the actual sportswear he wore while competing for his gold medals.

“This year I wanted to pay homage to @sirmofarah our Olympic champ and all round legend (and I think we look alike lowkey),” Jama, 32, wrote in the caption of her post.

“HAPPY HALLOWEEN!! Can’t wait to skin out tonight and thankyou Mo for sending your actual Olympic outfit and real medals… hero!!! Let’s partyyyy.”

Jama also shared a video of her on a call with Farah, who appeared delighted by the effort she had gone to.

“I thought that was me for a minute!” he exclaimed.

Jama’s friends, fans and fellow celebrities also applauded her in the comments section.

“FFS,” pop star JADE wrote with laughing and applauding emojis, while her former Little Mix bandmate Leigh-Anne Pinnock wrote, “SO GOOD.”

The official London Marathon account remarked: “Thought this was an announcement you were running…”

“Makeup team are cold,” actor Letitia Wright commented, praising Jama’s makeup artists for creating such an accurate look, complete with facial hair.

“You win,” singer Paloma Faith said.

“Oh my GOD !!!! Girl you are so unpredictable and I love it,” publicist Melissa Kristella commented, to which Jama replied: “Been sexy all year wanted to switch it up.”

Speaking to Variety in an interview after Celebrity Traitors concluded, Jama explained she would be going as Farah and that she was wearing “his actual Olympic outfit”.

“I think people are expecting me to be sexy, but they’re just gonna see like, a bald man,” she said.

Fans have been praising Jama as a “true winner” after she announced she had matched the Celebrity Traitors’ winnings in a donation to her chosen charity.

The TV presenter came within a whisker of going all the way as a Traitor after she made it through to Friday night’s grand finale.

But she was banished by her fellow contestants at the final roundtable when she left without revealing her true identity, leaving King Kenny as the final traitor standing.

He was then eventually caught out by actor Sebastian Croft, who persuaded comedian Romesh Ranganathan to banish him at the last moment.

Comedian Romesh Ranganathan and actor Sebastian Croft ended the game together, splitting the £83,000 prize pot between their chosen charities.

But in a post on X on Saturday (31 October), Jama revealed she would be matching what she would have won if she had remained until the end to her choice of charity, Action for Children.

The organisation supports children to ensure they have a “safe and happy childhood” and the foundations they need to thrive.
