AJ Odudu is set to front four new TV shows following her success on Strictly Come Dancing

The 34-year-old presenter was one of the most popular contestants on last year's 'Strictly' and she got to the final of the BBC ballroom competition with her professional partner Kai Widdrington but she had to pull out the day before due to an injury to her right ankle.

Her popularity on the show has led to her landing a host of top jobs.

AJ, who is already presenting Channel 4 reality series ‘The Bridge’, will also be fronting ‘The Big Blow Out’ on E4 and Channel 4’s ‘Married At First Sight’, with both set to air later this year. She will also be appearing in BBC’s ‘Picture Slam’ which is currently in production.

An insider told The Sun newspaper's TV Biz column: "She was always going to go on to bigger things after her profile soared on 'Strictly', but nobody would have expected her to get so much work so quickly.

“It seems there was something of a scramble to sign AJ up for shows after she became a viewer favourite on the last series of 'Strictly'.

“As is often the case with the show, it isn’t always the person who takes home the glitterball trophy who gets the most job offers afterwards.”

AJ has also appeared on shows such as 'Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins', 'Cooking With The Stars' and 'The Chase'.
