Nicky Hambleton-Jones
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nicky Hambleton-Jones, born 1969, is a South African television presenter of Scottish descent, who has hosted 10 Years Younger on Channel 4 in the UK since 2003. Nicky began her career at the age of 11 hosting live shows in her home town of Cape Town. She moved to the UK in 1996, and in May 2001 she founded the style consultancy Tramp2Vamp.
She is known for her harsh manner with participants on the show, but she denied it in a newspaper interview: "In the first series I was a bit nasty, but that was because I was told to be by the programme-makers. They wanted me to be a kind of school ma'am. In series two, they said I could be myself, so since then I've always been really nice to our contributors. But the vicious label has stuck, and it really annoys me." She also wears glasses.
