Back in the 1980s and 1990s, Downtown Julie Brown was a familiar face on MTV as the host of the popular show Club MTV. Despite the passing of over 30 years, it seems like she hasn't aged a day. Her youthful appearance has left many fans wondering about her secret to staying young.
Born in Bedfordshire, England, Julie grew up on various air bases around the world due to her father's job in the Royal Air Force. Her family eventually settled in Wales, and it was there that she discovered her love for dance. In 1979, she won the World Disco Dancing Championship, following her earlier victory in the UK Disco Dancing Championships. Her dancing skills caught the attention of British TV producers, and she landed her first job as a presenter on several children's programs, including the popular show Crackerjack.
In the early 1980s, Julie also appeared as a dancer on the iconic show Top of the Pops as a member of the dance troupe Zoo. But it wasn't until she moved to the United States that her career really took off. She became an MTV VJ and hosted Club MTV from 1987 to 1992. Her show, which featured a lineup of dance music similar to American Bandstand, was a hit among viewers. Julie's infectious personality and catchphrase "Wubba Wubba Wubba" made her a fan favorite. This catchphrase came about after she accidentally read the t-shirt of a camera crew member while on live TV.
After her time at MTV, Julie continued to make a name for herself in the entertainment industry. She worked as a sports broadcaster for ESPN and hosted the gossip show on E Entertainment channel. She also pursued her passion for acting, appearing in various shows and movies such as Sharknado 5, Hey Arnold!, and I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here!. Julie's career has spanned decades, and she still remains active in the industry. She currently hosts a music show on SiriusXM channel '90s on 9 and The Back in The Day Replay Countdown, where she counts down the top 30 songs of the week from a specific year in the 1990s.
Despite being 60 years old now, Julie looks just as youthful as she did in the 1990s. A recent photo shared on her social media shows her looking almost unchanged from her Club MTV days. She also revealed that she will be hosting a 90s music cruise next year, embracing the throwback moments of her career. In another throwback photo from the 1980s, Julie shared a special memory of when she interviewed the legendary Donna Summers. She confessed to being in awe and trying to keep her cool while talking to the Queen of Disco.
In 2001, Julie married film producer and former CEO of Intermedia, Martin Schuermann. They now reside in Marina del Rey, California, with their daughter Gianna. It's clear that Julie's love for dance and music has kept her young at heart. Despite her busy schedule, she still finds time to share her passion for the 90s with fans through her radio shows and appearances. And who knows, maybe that's the secret to her timeless appearance.
