The dancer and presenter on family and a being momager
When he’s not throwing shapes onstage with his brother Ashley, Jordan Banjo is most likely to be found in the Kiss Radio studios hosting the weekday breakfast show with his BFF and fellow Diversity star Perri Kiely.

Who’s the best celeb you’ve had on the Kiss Breakfast Show?
