Gok Wan, beloved fashion guru, DJ and presenter, 50, has a lot on right now, but he couldn't be happier with all the plates he's spinning.

As well as an upcoming Christmas charity single in conjunction with Macmillan, in memory of his best friend, Allison Gordon Parry, who had lived with stage 4 breast cancer for many years, before sadly passing away in May, Gok is gearing up to take over from Ronan Keating as a full-time co-host on Magic's Radio.

Breakfast Show, from January.Talking about his huge new gig - which is his first job in radio - chatty Gok tells OK!: "Yes, it's very exciting - they asked me to cover for the brilliant Ronan Keating, who’d been there for seven years.

It's a huge show so of course, I said yes. I’d never done radio but I totally fell in love with it. It’s fun and fast. I raved about it so much I think I subliminally forced them to give me the job!" The much-loved star, who recently celebrated his 50th birthday, says he has been on the show for the last few months, finding his feet but admits there is one aspect that is proving tough - the crippling 4am starts. "I like being awake early and talking a lot, so that doesn’t bother me!".
