Jorge Javier Vázquez Morales (born 25 July 1970) is a Spanish television presenter.
Vázquez was born in the Sant Roc neighbourhood of Badalona, Catalonia, Spain. His mother María Morales Martínez originates from Alcaraz, Castilla-La Mancha, and his father originated from Cieza, Murcia. He has two sisters, Ana and Esther.
Vázquez graduated in Spanish language and literature from the University of Barcelona. At the age of 25 he moved to Madrid, where he worked as an editor for teen magazine Super Pop and celebrity and women's magazine Pronto.
In 1997, Vázquez began appearing in the Antena 3 show Extra Rosa, hosted by Rosa Villacastín and Ana Rosa Quintana. The following year he joined talk show Sabor a ti and its summer version Sabor a verano as a celebrity news commentator. In 2001 he debuted as television host alongside Francine Gálvez in Rumore, rumore.
Vázquez left Antena 3 and moved to Telecinco, where he began to appear as a panelist in the morning television show Día a día, hosted by María Teresa Campos. On 24 March 2003 he began to present, alongside Carmen Alcayde, the show that took him to stardom, Aquí hay tomate, which focused on tabloid stories and the world of celebrities. The daily show lasted until 1 February 2008 with high ratings but it drew criticism for sensationalism. In 2007 he also hosted Hormigas blancas, a show that revised the personal trajectory of a celebrity each episode.
After a hiatus of some months, Vázquez reinstated to Telecinco in September 2008 as the presenter of the daily highlights and the weekly debate show of the tenth season of Gran Hermano (Big Brother).
