Richard Blackwood (born 15 May 1972 in Clapham, London, England) is a British singer, stand-up comedian, actor and television presenter. In 1999, he presented his own show called "The Richard Blackwood Show". He also guest presented Top of the Pops for the BBC and hosted MTV's "Select". He has acted in such programmes as Holby City and played the title character in the 2002 television series, Ed Stone Is Dead. He made one appearance on the news quiz Have I Got News For You. He also features in a comedy DVD release called "Princes of comedii".

He has also appeared in multiple reality television series: The Club, Drop the Celebrity and I'm Famous and Frightened!, Celebrity Detox and the Bull Run Rally.

Blackwood was step-brother of model Naomi Campbell (his father was married to her mother for a time) and is the nephew of the singer Junior. Has recorded a cover of one of his uncle's songs and released an album called You'll Love to Hate This. He currently co-presents a show on London radio station Choice fm and guests as a disc jockey at nightclubs in the United Kingdom.

Regarded as unpopular with the British public due to media overexposure , in 2003 Blackwood had his Isle of Dogs home repossesed and declared himself bankrupt. He is reportedly often heckled with the phrase "Oi Blackwood, you're BANKRUPT!" by passers-by on the street . In spite of this Blackwood is experiencing a minor resurgence of late, as a celebrity guest at Student's Unions .
