The interview: Lisa Snowdon

A fter meeting model and presenter Lisa Snowdon, I go away determined to write that she has finally managed to overthrow the "former girlfriend of George Clooney" tag. It's been years since they dated and she's done so much since then.

However, when I do a quick word association test, even though people eventually get around to mentioning her on Strictly Come Dancing , co-hosting with Johnny Vaughan on the Capital breakfast show or presenting Britain's Next Top Model, I get "went out with George Clooney" as the first thing out of their mouths seven times out of 10.

Not that Snowdon seems to mind. You could forgive her for prickling or freezing at the mention of Clooney's name, but she just shrugs airily.

"Before Strictly, I guess that was the biggest thing that happened to me, image-wise. It was weird at first, but I understood - he is just so famous." But it must have been galling that for a time this was deemed to be her career - "George Clooney's girlfriend", then "George Clooney's former girlfriend"? Going through some of the cuttings from the time, I also detected a distinct whiff of "Why her?"

"I try not to analyse that kind of thing," says Snowdon. "But back when I was dating George, it would be, 'So what's so special about this girl? I've met her, she's not that beautiful, not that clever, not that outstanding.' People were trying to suss me out, find out why someone like him would be attracted to someone like me."

Snowdon says this was why she was so thrilled with the response she got from Strictly, where she reached the final. "People saw me warts and all, vulnerable, no make-up, spots, wrinkles, whatever, just me as I am. People could see, yes, she did date George, but she's human as well, which was lovely. But people are still interested in him and I can see why. It is quite interesting and exciting, especially for a girl from Welwyn Garden City."

We meet for lunch at a private London club. Snowdon, 37, chestnut-haired, casually dressed in blouse and jeans, is friendly and chatty, taking her seat with the zeal of someone whose job prevents her from going out much at night. "You've got to understand that this is a treat, like going out for dinner, for me."

While Snowdon finds the early starts on Capital hard, she loves doing the show and it would seem the listeners love her back. Since she took over from Denise van Outen, she and Vaughan have been awarded Television and Radio Industries Club (TRIC) and Sony awards and the show has been number one in the ratings twice. "If you'd told me last year that I would have been on the radio for nearly a year, I would have been amazed," she says. "It's the most fun I've ever had. Johnny genuinely makes me laugh, it's just great chemistry - we spend the whole time giggling."

Snowdon started at Capital around the same time she did Strictly, which can't have been easy. On the first show, she was so nervous she didn't recognise herself. "I still think that someone else danced that dance for me. When I look at the footage, I just have this perma-grin on my face. I look like a ventriloquist."

She got on well with the other dancers, including John Sergeant. She tried to talk him out of quitting and was often to be seen linking a spangled arm with him, when it was (deliciously) rumoured that all the other dancers were fuming about the clodhopping political hack ruining their chances.

"Don't get me wrong," says Snowdon. "Doing Strictly was serious, because you're investing so much time. But, come on, it was an entertainment show and he was very entertaining. It was really brave of John to take part and it was great to see what he'd do with Kristina every week - drag her across the room like a sack of potatoes or whatever."

Snowdon was quite the Strictly success story herself. The fact that she made it to the final (she came third) was often attributed to the "male vote", but I think that's rubbish. Women overwhelmingly vote for these things and they must have voted for her. "I think so, too," says Snowdon. "The feedback I got from women, young girls and kids, was just lovely."

Indeed, Snowdon must be one of the few "models who went out with George Clooney" who could genuinely boast a modicum of woman-appeal. She tells me that women started writing to her way back in the 1990s, when she first appeared in a Special K campaign, thanking her for representing women with "real curves". Happy to talk about cellulite or, as with me, order chocolate pudding (and eat it), Snowdon seems to exude a certain a Forces sweetheart niceness and ordinariness that both men and women find appealing.

Snowdon says: "I'm not that outstandingly gorgeous. I'm not Christy Turlington, Linda Evangelista or anybody like that. I'm your girl next door" and you can see what she means. In truth, though, she's not that ordinary. She might have more curves than the average model, but she is lithe and toned and her face, when you look at it closely, is rather dusky and exotic, not girl next door at all (she tells me she has Turkish, possibly also French, heritage).

And truly "ordinary" girls don't get to go out with George Clooney. What was the air like at that level of celebrity? Intoxicating? Hard to breathe? "Both, to be honest," she says. "But when I was with George on a day-to-day basis, it was just hanging out with a guy. I couldn't live my life doing that thing of walking five steps behind, ducking into alleyways."

It is this kind of down-to-earth attitude that seems to be standing her in good stead. Snowdon, along with the likes of Tyra Banks, Heidi Klum, Helena Christensen and Alexa Chung, is one of the few to have built herself a post-modelling profile. As well as the TV work, she is considering a Strictly keep-fit DVD, a small, boutique-style modelling agency and is also an ambassador for breast cancer awareness, after both her grandmother and aunt suffered from the disease, the former dying from it.

After a modelling career spanning 20 years, does she like the fact that at Capital she's in a job that's not all about her looks?

"It is lovely being able to work with your voice and personality," she enthuses. "It's like, it doesn't matter what you look like. It's all about the banter and the chemistry. That's the thing I love about radio - people choose you, and if they don't like what they're listening to, they turn it off."

Snowdon grew up Lisa Snawdon in Welwyn Garden City, Hertfordshire. Both parents, Lydia and Nigel, worked in insurance (Lisa used to joke that at least she was covered); she has a sister, Lesley Ann, who is younger by four years. She wasn't academic at school, describing herself as "bright, not clever", and was bullied for being - of all things - skinny, to the point where she begged her mother to feed her up. "They'd be saying, 'Be careful you don't fall down a wormhole' or, 'Chuck her a Polo, she's drowning'. I can laugh about it now, but it was horrible. I was such a late developer."

After seeing Cats and Les Misérables, Snowdon originally wanted to be a dancer and attended the Italia Conti stage school. "I was never that good. The headmaster said, 'She's not the greatest singer, and not the greatest dancer, but she's got something.' And I was like, 'Is that a compliment?'"

Just as she was becoming disenchanted, a Premier model scout spotted her dancing on a podium in a nightclub. Even early on, she landed high-profile campaigns for various fragrances, lingerie ranges and the one for Special K that got her the grateful fan mail from women. These led to presenting stints on LA Pool Party, Richard and Judy, Through the Keyhole and This Morning.

More recently, there has been Britain's Next Top Model, which starts again this month (and to which I am shamelessly addicted). Snowdon describes BNTM as "a modelling crash course with a bit of finishing school thrown in" and says they go to great lengths to mentor the girls. Rather her than me. Much of the fun of the show is that it features young girls doing what they do best - looking stunning and acting vile. Snowdon shrugs: "These crazy characters all living together - of course, there's going to be fights. But they're good girls at heart."

What about size zero? To be fair, BNTM tends to choose contestants who are bigger and healthier (a plus size model won the 2008 US show). However, a girl from the forthcoming UK series has already hit the headlines for having a food disorder. Some girls are naturally extremely slender, but what of others who make themselves ill to be a certain shape? "For me, its all about healthy eating," says Snowdon adamantly. "You should never sacrifice your health to be a certain way. I didn't."

Snowdon tells me how, when she was first modelling in the 1990s, the heroin chic waif thing was fashionable and a couple of times she felt pressured. Once in Paris, a designer she won't name repeatedly hit her breasts, saying they were too big. Another time in Milan, she was stripped in a bathroom and ordered to lose weight. Instead, Snowdon decided to return to London and pursue the kind of work where her shape would be appreciated.

"If they didn't want me as I was, I didn't want to be there," explains Snowdon. "When I got boobs, I was like, 'I've got curves now, I feel like a young woman, I feel accepted.' I didn't want to go back to being skinny again."

These were only two incidents, she points out: "I don't want to make it sound like I'm bitching about the whole industry. But on those two occasions I did stand up for myself. I wasn't prepared to compromise my health and happiness to be a certain shape."

Considering her age at the time, it seems pretty strong of Snowdon not to allow herself be intimidated. You wonder how many young models would have the courage to refuse to lose weight and announce to their agency they were ditching Paris and Milan.

Snowdon looks slightly bemused when I say this. "Back when I was modelling, I always had the attitude: they work for me." Not, she stresses, in any diva-esque way, just that she's always had mutually respectful professional relationships, whatever she's doing: "I pride myself on being professional, punctual, stuff like that," she says. "But I've always been the same. I've always been able to ask myself - what do I want to do? What will make me happy?"

Her stand as a young model is all the more striking because it must have happened just after an early relationship in which she was mentally and physically abused, getting out when she found herself covering up black eyes, pretending she had fallen over.

Snowdon doesn't really want to talk about this. "But I want my story to inspire women to change their own situation if they're in one." She describes the relationship as "obsessive, possessive, dangerous. He started being mentally abusive, then it turned physical. And when you're a young girl you have nothing to compare it with. You think you're to blame. 'I've made him behave like this.' I escaped, but it was hard."

I'm no psychoanalyst, but does she think those early experiences contributed to her becoming so fiercely independent? "Maybe, I don't know." Lisa hesitates. "I don't think so. I'm so over it now and I've had so many relationships since. I don't think it scarred me in that way."

As well as Clooney, Snowdon dated Gary Dourdan, the CSI actor also based in Los Angeles, but was never tempted to move over there, suspecting she would have ended up homesick.

Currently single, she splits her time between the flat she bought in Camden, north London, to lessen her travelling time to Capital, and her home in Epping Forest, where she loves walking the dog with her sister. "Just going home on a Sunday and my dad doing a roast and my gran coming over. Simple pleasures and people will probably think, oh my god, she's so boring. But it's those quality times with my family that float my boat at the moment."

Considering she's not in a relationship, it seems daft to ask, but has Snowdon any thoughts on motherhood? "Don't worry, I'm 37, it's the opening question for everybody." Females in the public eye are almost bullied about this kind of thing. "Hm, it's 'Time's running out! The clock's ticking!' I'm like, yeah, I know how old I am, I don't need you to remind me. But I take it with a pinch of salt."

She says broodiness comes and goes. "I don't know any more and that's the honest answer. It isn't the end of the world if I don't, it definitely isn't, but some women would think so. If you had told me 10 years ago that I may not have children, it would have upset me. But here I am, 37, I haven't had any, I've never even been close to it, I've never even been engaged to a man. And it would have to feel right, you know. I'd have to find somebody who just fits."

Snowdon says she's always been picky, and cherishes living on her own, doing exactly what she wants. "I would be tricky to live with now perhaps." But she is also romantic. "I really am. When I'm in love I am a giving person, but I need to have that feeling. I won't compromise for anybody any more."

Moreover, Snowdon feels that her packed schedule, not least those crippling early mornings at Capital, are not exactly baby-friendly. Scraping her spoon across the last of the chocolate, she says wryly: "I couldn't even have a boyfriend right now."

Just before we finish, I wonder if she sometimes feels like Lisa Snowdon plc and whether she enjoys that? Snowdon says her greatest fear, career-wise, is: "Just not working, the phone not ringing, that kind of thing."

With that, we tumble into the street, Lisa by now looking slightly crazed with tiredness as she sets off with a cheerful "busy-busy" wave. Back at the restaurant, she had said: "I'm really lucky because I can go under the radar. I can jump on the bus, walk down the street and I never get hassled. Occasionally there's something about Strictly, or someone will say, 'I listen to you and Johnny.' But that's lovely - it's nice to think you're waking people up in the morning."
