Profile: Steve Jones
30 May 08
Tall, handsome, talented and utterly charming – Steve Jones is the face of the Channel4’s T4 programmes.
Steve leads the presenting team at T4 where he co-hosts T4 Saturdays and Sundays with Alexa Chung, Rick Edwards and Miquita Oliver.
His career started when Steve was approached by Esquire magazine and asked to do some freelance modelling work. Steve went on to work in Australia, Korea and London for various clients such as Versace, Armani, Ralph Lauren, Pringles, Adidas, and Coca Cola among others. It was a natural progression to the screen as Steve’s original sense of humour and ability to get the very best out of people made him perfect presenter material.
Recently Steve has seen great success with the late night Channel 4 show, Transmission, now in its third series, and presented the marathon show Carling Live 24, also for Channel 4. Other credits include the Bravo show All About Men, and Five's challenge show 99 Things To Do Before You Die.
He has also worked on many Film Specials for Channel 4, most memorable being Cars and Pirates of the Caribbean, and most recent being Hancock. During his presenting career he has interviewed Beyonce, Avril Lavigne, George Clooney, Mariah Carey, Will Smith and Christina Aguilera to name but a few.
Steve has also just completed work on his first feature film. Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging, directed by Gurinder Chadha, is a story of coming of age and will be released in UK cinemas in Summer 2008.
