Alesha Dixon

Alesha Dixon (born 7 October 1978, Welwyn Garden City, Hertfordshire) is a British singer, television presenter and author. She first rose to prominence as one third of the UK garage/R&B group Mis-Teeq (1999–2005), which scored seven consecutive UK top-10 singles ("Scandalous," "All I Want," "Why") and sold more than 12 million records worldwide. As a solo artist her 2008 album *The Alesha Show* went platinum, featuring "Breathe Slow" and "The Boy Does Nothing."

She is best known today as a long-running television personality: she won *Strictly Come Dancing* in 2007, judged the show from 2009–2012, and has been a judge on Britain's Got Talent since 2012. She has also judged *The X Factor* (2017), *America's Got Talent: The Champions* (2020) and *Australia's Got Talent* (2022), and co-hosted the Eurovision Song Contest 2023. Beyond broadcasting she runs the record label Precious Stone Records and has authored several children's book series, including *Lightning Girl*.

Her business and entrepreneurial activity spans brand endorsements (Ford, Avon, Toblerone), a jewellery line, a fragrance, and a portfolio of investments described in press coverage as spanning fashion and technology. Within the startup world, her most concrete and publicly documented involvement is as one of a group of celebrity angel shareholders in the British music-streaming company ROXi.

• Invests as an individual celebrity angel, not through a fund or firm; deals are typically syndicated alongside other high-profile figures rather than led solo.
• Disclosed activity centres on music technology and consumer entertainment — a sector adjacent to her own career and network.
• Has participated in both angel-stage and later-stage rounds (CB Insights lists an angel round and an earlier Series-B-stage participation).
• Pattern suggests she says "yes" where there is a strong founder/celebrity syndicate and a music/entertainment consumer product she can credibly amplify through her platform, rather than a defined thematic thesis stated publicly.
• No publicly stated personal investment thesis or check-size range could be found; treat sector/stage inferences as based on disclosed deals only.
