Downtown Julie Brown (born Julie Dorne Brown; August 27, 1961) is an English television presenter, actress, disc jockey, and model. She is best known for her work on MTV in the 1980s and early 1990s.

Brown was born in London, England. Her father, Tony, was a professional photographer, and her mother, Jan, was a model. Brown has two older sisters, Debbie and Julie. Brown’s parents divorced when she was four years old, and she and her sisters were raised by their mother.

Brown began her career as a model, appearing in magazines such as Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar. She also appeared in commercials for products such as L’Oréal cosmetics. In 1984, Brown moved to New York City to pursue a career in television.

Brown’s first major television role was as a VJ on MTV’s flagship show, MTV Video Music Awards.

Brown also appeared in a number of music videos, including Madonna’s “Material Girl” and Duran Duran’s “Notorious.”

In 1992, Brown left MTV to pursue a career in acting. She appeared in a number of films, including the cult classic Wayne’s World, and had a recurring role on the television series Martin. Brown also hosted her own talk show, The Downtown Julie Brown Show, on the E! network.
