Specialising in celebrity interviews, video game industry events, and pop culture trends, 23-year old Layla is no stranger television and media attention. On her CV are roles as an on-air correspondent for Fox Sport’s ‘Best Damn Sports Show Period’ and The Vegas Insider, as well as a co-host for G4’s ‘Attack of the Show’.

“From the first casting interview with her, we knew Layla would be a great fit for Season VI,” said Robyn Moder, executive VP at WPT Studios. “Not only does she have an impressive TV background hosting in the sports and entertainment world, but she is energetic, intelligent and strikingly beautiful — the perfect combination to engage WPT fans. We are thrilled to welcome Layla to the WPT family.”
