Inside Clara Amfo’s incredible bright home with turntables as Strictly star hosts TOTP reboot
CLARA Amfo showed off her impressive colourful home as the Strictly star hosts the Top of the Pops reboot.
The radio DJ, 39, has filled her London property with an eclectic mix of shades and furnishings, with bold, bright colours running throughout.
Her confident personality is expressed by eye-popping artwork and decor running throughout her abode in the capital.
The radio presenter has filled her walls with pictures including of music legend Lauryn Hill with the quote ‘Everything is everything’.
There’s also a framed portrait of her mum on the wall, which she admitted was a blessing during lockdown when she wasn’t able to see her.
She wrote alongside the picture of her: “Just spoke to my mum, it was nice. Her voice is the best. I thank God for this painting of her now more than ever.”
She has a neon sign of the iconic Grace Jones, along with countless pairs of trainers stacked up together in a shoe rack.
The shelves are full of books, records and speakers with a huge area coloured in mustard yellow for her DJ decks and mixers.
A palm leaf patterned green curtain gives an excellent backdrop for selfies and the presenter can be seen looking stunning in front of the cool curtain.
A mustard yellow theme runs through with a yellow sofa in the kitchen, which has wooden floors, white cupboards and black worktop surfaces.
It comes after fans have demanded the BBC bring back the Christmas Day special.
It aired weekly from 1964 until 2006 before being axed – but the festive episode aired on December 25 until 2022.
Cost-cutting measures meant the festive favourite was pulled from the schedules last year despite it being traditional viewing for generations of Brits.
Host Clara Amfo presented Review of the Year on Thursday night, which was a hit with viewers – and inspired many to petition for its return.
“So lovely to see you back on the telly Clara,” said one.
“I hope next year they bring back with the studio show with yourself and Fearne! It’s not Christmas Day without it!!!”
Clara started her radio career at Kiss FM in London, presenting the overnight show.
She was then promoted to Saturday Breakfast and then drivetime show.
She joined BBC Radio 1Xtra in 2013, hosting the weekend breakfast show.
In 2015, she became the host of The Official Chart on BBC Radio 1, and in the same year, took over from Fearne Cotton as host of the station’s mid-morning show.
It 2020, it was announced that Clara will be appearing on the 18th series of Strictly.
