Britain’s Got Talent judge Amanda Holden doesn’t want to hear about any complaints surrounding her outfits in this year’s series.
The 52-year-old radio presenter often attracts attention for her choice of glamorous gowns on the ITV entertainment show, and recently revealed that she’s never been told ‘no’ by the production team to any of her clothing choices as she addressed the criticism she sometimes receives.
Although the backlash has been aimed at Amanda over the years, the TV personality claimed that this time round, her co-stars Simon Cowell and Bruno Tonioli are the ones everyone should be looking at.
Speaking ahead of Saturday’s series 16 debut, she said: ‘When everyone talks about my t**s, I mean these two [Simon and Bruno] have them out all the time.’
She added: ‘Man boobs, with your [Simon] shirts undone and him [Bruno] stripping off. I’m like… no Ofcom complaints about me this year please.’
Newcomer Bruno, 67, quickly defended Amanda and simply encouraged her to ‘show it off.’
‘I don’t understand this complaining,’ he said.
‘She’s a beautiful woman, they’re beautiful women. What is the problem?’
Amanda also previously also pointed out that her fellow BGT judge Alesha never gets the same critique that she does with her daring dresses.
The I Can See Your Voice star added to The Sun: ‘Alesha gets away with wearing bikinis, but I don’t seem to. It’s bizarre. With shows where there are strong women on a panel, it’s sadly inevitable that they’ll be judged on what they’re wearing.’
However, Amanda revealed that everything she wears is ‘checked by an empowering female producer’ and that she hasn’t been told that she ‘can’t wear something… yet!’
She was recently asked whether or not she loves courting the controversy around her wardrobe, after people took the time to complain to Ofcom over her Britain’s Got Talent outfits, to which she replied: ‘Oh yes, 100%. That’s what it’s all about. It’s hilarious how much controversy my outfits have caused – people have got so much time on their hands.
‘I mean, no one paid much attention to what I wore when I was in my twenties or thirties.’
Britain’s Got Talent returns on Saturday at 8pm on ITV and ITVX.
