The One Show fans want Clara Amfo to become a regular after replacing Alex Jones
‘Far and away the best presenter!’
Fans watching The One Show were so impressed by Alex Jones’ replacement, Clara Amfo, last night (May 28) that they demanded she become a permanent fixture.
During Wednesday evening’s show, Clara was joined by JLS singer JB Gill as her co-host. The pair welcomed to the green couch US superstar John Legend, and Angela Scanlon and Vicky Pattison, who were promoting their new podcast.
Usually, Welsh presenter Alex Jones and former Capital FM DJ Roman Kemp regularly host the show. However, as they took time off, Clara, 41, and JB, 38, stepped in yesterday.

‘I always choose projects that are authentic to me’
During a 2021 interview with Harper’s Bazaar, Clara opened up about how she’s managed to succeed as a broadcaster.
The former Strictly star, who used to be a DJ on BBC Radio 1, insisted it’s always important to “always be yourself”.
“When you’re broadcasting, you are putting yourself out there and it needs to be an authentic you. That’s what’s going to make you special and unique: being you is what you have to offer. Especially as a woman – and as a Black woman – I know that I can make myself more palatable if I present my hair in a particular way or if I dress in a particular way, but I just know I would be doing a disservice to myself,” she said.
Clara continued: “It’s the same with my work ethic; I always choose projects that are authentic to me. I never work with a product I would never use myself. That’s the best advice I could give someone wanting to get into this field: do it because you love the work. It’s a tough industry and it’s competitive, so you have to really be in it because it is authentically your passion.”
