Naga Munchetty: Last News

Jeremy Clarkson has slammed BBC presenter Naga Munchetty's six-figure salary after the broadcaster published its list of their top-earners earlier this week.The Clarkson's Farm star, 62, took issue with the BBC Breakfast presenter's wage, which sees her earn up to £369,000.The star started off by justifying war correspondent Orla Guerin's £164,000 a year salary.Jeremy claimed that it's deserved because of the dangerous nature of her job.However, the motoring expert went on to take issue with BBC Breakfast star Naga's wage.Comparing her presenting role to Orla's, he penned: "She doesn’t have to go to work through a hail of machine gun fire."She doesn’t have to do her toilet on a battlefield."He went on to challenge her salary, also addressing the perks of her job.Jeremy continued: "So why, when all she does is sit on a sofa and read an autocue, will she trouser £369,000?"Naga has a cushy job and is doubtless ferried to the studios every day in a Mercedes E-Class with an air freshener," he added in his column in The Sun.However, he went on to add that even after she's finished her job for the day, she'll be pestered by fans for photos.Earlier this week the BBC published a report of their top-earners.Match of the day presenter Gary Lineker topped the list of the BBC's best-paid stars for the fifth year in a row, which saw him take £1.35million in the last financial year.The BBC star's salary is less from the £1.36million he earned last year which followed a pay cut from £1.75milion.After Gary was BBC Radio 2 presenter Zoe Ball who took £980,000.Steve Wright and Alan Shearer both came in third with £450,000.Other BBC stars who were named in the top 10 included Huw Edwards at number six, Fiona Bruce alongside Fiona Bruce,

Naga Munchetty, 47, has been working with the BBC since 2010 and has become a main fixture of the channel.She is known for having an active Twitter account and today was no different when she responded to a BBC Breakfast viewer's comment about her outfit choice for this morning's early breakfast show.Naga presented on Thursday's BBC Breakfast with Charlie Stayt, however many viewers were distracted by her outfit.She sported a satin style maxi style shirt dress, with her signature dark red lipstick.Having seen her on the show, social media user C0tts10 jibed on Twitter: "That reminds me @TVNaga01 I must put the black bin bags out today."Naga quickly quipped back in view of her 274,500 followers: "that's funny."NealWatts reassured the presenter as he commented: "Naga you look gorgeous."However, many other viewers took to Twitter to share their view on Naga's dress choice.BCollier2012 asked: "Is Naga going to wear her dressing gown all day?"LizzieAnnette added: "I love that black satin, said no woman ever."Naga wears some gorgeous clothes but today is not one of those days."JamesMason1 chimed: "Did Naga get up late this morning?"Can't understand why she is still in her pajamas."This comes after it was recently revealed that Naga had taken a pay rise of over £100,000, making her one of BBC's biggest earners.Her increase was the second-highest for the channel, with Amol Rajan enjoying the biggest pay rise.The BBC Breakfast presenter is still behind Match of the Day's Gary Lineker, the only presenter to earn over £1 million annually.Earlier this week, Naga also had to issue an apology for failing to deliver a promised interview on her BBC Radio 5 Live show.She revealed she was unable to air her anticipated interview with

Naga Munchetty, 47, alarmed viewers when she suggested that July 1 wasn't actually Friday, the gateway to the weekend, after all, but fell a day earlier than they'd thought. One anxious fan, @eel0110, took to Twitter to redress the balance, exclaiming: "Naga! Don’t do that to us, THURSDAY 1 July?!"She continued: "What a panic in our house there was still 2 days before the weekend…"The BBC 5 Live and BBC Breakfast presenter replied in front of her 278,500 followers: "Oops sorry! X"Naga's slip up on air led some to worry that the last day of their working week would be a day later than they had imagined.It isn't the first time that the presenter has sparked confusion, either.During her coverage of the Queen's Jubilee celebrations last month, Naga bucked the trend for wearing the colours of the British flag.Instead, she donned blue and yellow, leaving puzzled viewers scratching their heads trying to understand her reasoning.Some speculated that she may have been showing support for war-torn Ukraine, by donning the colours of their national flag.However some followers argued that the move was "anti-British" and not in the spirit of the celebrations."Was the flag mocking @TVNaga01 wearing EU colours to our Queens jubilee celebrations today?" @SilentM85649515 quizzed."Why is this Union flag hating woman even there? The Queen deserves better."The tweeter added her view that the bright yellow scarf Naga was wearing seemed inappropriate for the warm June weather.@Richard49058624 answered: "God I hate that woman with a passion @DefundBBC."Naga then waded into the debate by offering an amused personal reply."Ooh.

BBC Breakfast star Naga Munchetty, 47, had been in conversation with fellow presenter Jo Whiley about the music festival Glastonbury, which kicks off today, when she made the blunder.She referred to other BBC reporters as "rivals" before swiftly changing gears and substituting the word with "colleagues"."Who else do you want but Jo Whiley there presenting for the BBC?" she began during an interview from the festival published on BBC Sounds."I was talking with our rivals," she told Jo, before hastily adding: "Not rivals - our colleagues, I should say!"Jo, 56, responded: "I'm glad I'm talking to you as well then!"The pair then went into a conversation about Glastonbury, which Naga revealed that she had never attended before.Her admission followed comments from comic Lenny Henry querying why the world-famous festival did not attract large numbers of ethnic minorities.Jo assured her that it was "the most extraordinary experience" which would hold "appeal for all ages".She told of how her mother had camped out with her several years earlier and was now nagging her for a repeat experience as she was "desperate" to go again.Jo said she had also seen off her children, the youngest of whom is 13, as they headed to the festival at Worthy Farm in Somerset.Top acts include headliner Paul McCartney, who is expected to wow at the event after having just turned 80 last week.DJ Jo spoke of the strong "female representation" that she was looking forward to her daughters India and Coco being inspired by.She has previously joked that her youngest daughter was conceived thanks to Glastonbury favourite Noel Gallagher."I’d always wanted a fourth child and I kept saying to Steve not to forget that,” she ­told the Mirror previously.“Then I

Naga Munchetty, 47, praised last night’s BBC Platinum Party At The Palace event as they aired a very special segment featuring Queen Elizabeth II enjoying a marmalade sandwich alongside the fictional character Paddington Bear. Unfortunately, Her Majesty was unable to attend the celebratory concert in person, but that did not stop her from stealing the show in a pre-recorded video featuring her CGI co-star.Just as she did at the 2012 London Olympics when she appeared with Daniel Craig’s James Bond, the Queen proved a good sport as she acted alongside the bear, voiced by Ben Whishaw, who joined her at Buckingham Palace for afternoon tea.After patiently tolerating a tea-slurping Paddington, who in typical slapstick fashion covers a footman in cream from a pastry, the Queen reveals that she has stashed a marmalade sandwich in the royal handbag: “I keep mine in here, for later,” she confides to Paddington.In response to the sketch, Naga typed: “Well.
