James Kavanagh is set to host his very first TV show – alongside Glenda Gilson.
The Snapchat star will co-host the spin-off show for Ireland’s Got Talent, which is coming to TV3 in the early 2018.
The Star newspaper reported the news, with James’ sister Ann confirming the role on her Instagram.
“So the news I was keeping to myself – my little baby brother is going to be ON TELEVISION hosting #irelandsgottalent and isn’t he in great company with @thejasonbyrne fella!!!
“And of course John gets a mention but most importantly YES this IS my leg in the photo. #legstunt #lunging #squatsquad #proudofyou James,” she wrote.
James has gained a huge online following, mainly through Snapchat, but has now got a huge audience across his Instagram and Facebook pages too.
Although he’s now a celebrity in his own right, he is also the younger brother of Conor McGregor’s trainer John Kavanagh.
Louis Walsh, Jason Byrne, Michelle Visage and Denis Van Outen will all be judges on the TV3 entertainment show, with Lucy Kennedy hosting.
