@londonbeautifullife caught up with DJ and Radio Presenter Jodie Weston on all things London, Online Trolls, Dating and her New Radio Show 'The Dollhouse Show' on Flex FM.
Jodie Weston at The O2 - @missjodieweston
@londonbeautifullife - "Congratulations on your radio show Dollhouse on Flex FM! Tell me more about the radio show?"
Jodie Weston - "Thank you! Yes, so my show is called “The Dollhouse Show” it’s on every Monday 12-2pm. You can listen live via 101.4FM for any Londoners or on the website you can listen live and later via my podcast https://flexfm.co.uk/podcast/jodie-weston/. I play House music and cover several areas of the genre (Soulful, Deep, Tech, Vocal. Future and Melodic) along with having some light-hearted conversation to keep the listeners entertained".
@londonbeautifullife - "You use to DJ at Mahiki and Embargo Republica what have you missed about DJ'ing since lock down?"
Jodie Weston - "I've missed feeding off the crowd and the general vibe of being out at a club or event, I’ve only had my imagination to fall back on and the listeners to my radio show texting in to make me feel like I’m not just in an empty room by myself!"
Jodie Weston - @missjodieweston
@londonbeautifullife - "What got you into DJ'ing?"
Jodie Weston - "I love music and have always been a big fan of the party vibes. I wanted to be a DJ because I feel that music expresses every mood and it’s an opportunity to bring my two favourite passions together - music and nightlife!"
@londonbeautifullife - "What would be your dream London venue to DJ at?"
Jodie Weston - "The 02 arena for sure would be the ultimate goal! Like they say, "shoot for the moon and even if you miss you’ll land amongst the stars!"
@londonbeautifullife - "Any DJ horror stories?" Jodie Weston - "My first ever set was a bit of a nightmare. It was in Camden and I was so focused on what I was going to wear and that I had my set list ready, that I totally forgot I needed to take a headphone jack to plug my headphones into the CDJ’s. I had to do the entire set all without any headphones which is pretty difficult to do! Needless to say, I didn’t make that mistake again!" @londonbeautifullife - "Being in the public eye have you had any horror stories from the public?" Jodie Weston - "Yes I’ve definitely had more than my fair share of trolling. I’ve been insulted for my appearance, my accent, my personality, you name it, I’ve had a nasty comment about it. It all comes with the territory though, so I try to ignore them as best as I can. At the end of the day, opinions aren’t facts and most of the time people troll via fake accounts with no profile picture because they aren’t brave enough to use their real accounts".
Jodie Weston - @missjodieweston
@londonbeautifullife - "What are your favourite spots in London?" Jodie Weston - "I love Toy Room, W Hotel Bar, Mnky Hse and Madison Rooftop Bar in the Summer. I also love Studio 338 for my raves! With me it’s either a high end bar or a massive room with flashing lights, there is no in between!" @londonbeautifullife - "Where would we normally see your local London hang outs?"
Jodie Weston - "I go to Muse Of London Salon in Fitzrovia to get my hair and nails done. For bars and restaurants I love Elan Cafe In Market Square, it’s great for taking Insta-perfect pictures. I also love "The Ivy" in Chelsea and “Boisdale" and “Bokan” restaurants in Canary Wharf. For shopping it’s got to be Oxford Street and Bond Street!" @londonbeautifullife - "Where would be your perfect dating location spot?" Jodie Weston - "I live to have fun so I’d want to go to a theme park or something silly such as crazy golf at “Swingers” In Oxford Circus or “Junkyard Golf” in Shoreditch".
Jodie Weston - @missjodieweston
@londonbeautifullife - "Any dating disaster stories?"
Jodie Weston - "I once had this guy take me to an awful bar in Shoreditch that was covered in exposed bare concrete. He was super sleazy and within about 10 minutes he was leaning all the way off his chair and trying to put his hands on my legs. He leaned a little bit too far and ended up falling off his chair head first and all the bar staff came running over offering first aid. There was no second date!" @londonbeautifullife - "What is your favourite iconic London building?" Jodie Weston - "The shard because I love the restaurants and the view is sensational! It’s just out of this world and so high up!" @londonbeautifullife - "Best thing about London?" Jodie Weston - "There is always something to do and see in London. I've lived here for 10 years and still don’t feel like I have seen anywhere near to everything that London has to offer".
Catch Jodie on her show 'The Dollhouse Show' on Flex FM every Monday 12 - 2PM.
