Reggie Yates has stepped down from Top Of The Pops after making “offensive” comments about Jewish music managers.
In a statement on Twitter, Yates said he was “stepping down from hosting Top Of The Pops this year”.
“This has been, and continues to be a huge learning experience for me, and on reflection I have taken the decision to step down from hosting Top Of The Pops this year.”
The presenter, 34, had been signed up to host Christmas Day and New Year specials with Fearne Cotton.
