Emma Willis is fast becoming the queen of entertainment TV.

The popular presenter, 41, fronts Big Brother and The Voice UK – and is now gearing up to host ITV’s new primetime show, Your Song.

Simon Cowell’s Syco Entertainment and Thames announced the one-off show which “will celebrate the lives of real people who have done something extraordinary” by giving them the “performance of a life-time” from their favourite musicians.

Willis said she is preparing for a rollercoaster of emotions: “This is such an amazing show to be part of… imagine seeing somebody you love, and who is so deserving being surprised with the performance of a lifetime by their musical hero!
