If you're a heat Radio listener (which, clearly, you are) you'll no doubt be obsessed with our drive time host Jordan Lee. Y'know, the hilarious chap that and brings all the bangers? But how well do you really know the fella?

We cornered him in the studio straight after his show and gave him a proper good grilling to get all the goss. BEHOLD: 5 things you probably never know about Jordan.

1. He went to a dance school

"Having ballet class at 8:30 EVERY morning was a bit of a killer, but I loved it! Plus, my school was used to film the music video for Eric Prydz’s Call On Me AND one of my teachers was in the music video for Cyndi Lauper’s Girls Just Wanna Have Fun. You can’t get more showbiz than that."

2. He used to run a famous person’s gym

"Before living in London, I helped run and teach classes for Angie and Calum Best’s gym. Loads of celeb clients came through, including the heartthrob Orlando Bloom. Safe to say it was a little harder to concentrate on work when an actual movie star struts in."

3. He's the biggest tech nerd you’ll ever meet

"Ask me any question about the latest gadgets and gizmos and I’ll know every single thing there is to know. I’m most likely the one with the newest phone, and telling everyone which one to get. I’m also the go to guy for setting up sky remotes in peoples houses and sorting out their Wi-Fi!"

4. He asked his dad on national television about his private life 👀

"A TV show visited my school when I was 14 and asked some of our parents to come in and have a chat about the birds and the bees. My dad was one of the unlucky people that was asked, and I ended up asking him some veerryyyyy frank questions. It’s still a tradition to whip out the video once in a while for a laugh, both at my hair and his answers!"

5. His first audition was for Britain’s Got Talent

"On a cold December in Scotland, a 14 year-old me and my mum waited about 6 hours out in the cold for my first ever audition. I ended up doing a very, very bad dance to an Adele song in front of some BGT producers in a meeting room while my mum cheered on in the corner . Spoiler alert - I made the final! (Just kidding, I didn’t get past the first round, but I’ll come back bigger and better soon!)"

Tune into Jordan's show every weekday, 4-7 PM on heat Radio.
