Amanda Holden's raciest Britain's Got Talent outfits including the jaw-dropping dress that broke Ofcom records

She has been a TV judge on Britain's Got Talent since 2016 and Amanda Holden is known for her glam and sometimes racy outfits on the ITV talent show. Amanda, who judges BGT alongside Simon Cowell, David Walliams and Alesha Dixon, either leaves viewers hot under the collar or racing to complain to the TV watchdog Ofcom.

The 51-year-old mum-of-two has no plans to tone her wardrobe down after one dress racked up a record-breaking 663 official complaints back in 2016, reports the Mirror. And a couple of years later she wowed in a lace detail dress with a spider web covering one of her breasts.

This year, as BGT returned after two years away from our screens because of Covid-19, the star wowed in hot pink rubber dress which sent fans wild. The compliments came pouring in on Twitter for the actress and singer's eye-catching bubblegum outfit which viewers described as a 'condom dress.'

@Cat52272631 tweeted: "Amanda Holden wearing something that resembles a condom on BGT, god love her!" And @vamplacey asked: "Is Amanda wearing a condom dress?"

Amanda previously told The Daily Express that she was planning to wear more rubber. "I am thinking - more rubber,” she explained. “I enjoyed wearing latex at the auditions, so I am thinking more latex, more sweating in the live shows.”

@HannahJoslyn95 said about her bold look: "Amanda’s dress looks like a pink Superdrug carrier bag." And @rattinem asked: "Why is Amanda Holden dressed like a highlighter pen?"

Ofcom got nine complaints over Nicolas Jebran spider web dress by viewers who deemed it "inappropriate" for a family show. But it was the plunging neckline on her stunning £11,000 Julian Mcdonald gown which revealed most of Amanda's chest and stomach that racked up 663 Ofcom complaints.

bromagegp messaged: "Please don't show off your boobs on live TV." And choirgirl_d wrote: "Great dress and she suits it but wrong event totally to be wearing it at."

But bostock.liz praised: "Very kardashian." And lokenrich said: "OMG Amanda darling your a credit 2 urself and women whom are as beautiful as you. You ooze sex appealX"

@firefighting4581 said: "Amanda is 46, and still killing it. She slays every time I see her. People can't handle the fact that when they're her age they won't look even close to how good she looks now.

"What makes me love her so much is that she doesn't even care about what people say about her. She'sconfident in her own skin, and that's all that matters. I literally love everything about her."

And tracyxtlc praised: " I actually can't believe people complained about you wearing this dress @noholdenback you look absolutely incredible and I think you're an inspiration. Bunch of old fuddy duddys. Bet they wished they'd a body like yours!!"

In 2020 more complaints were sent to Ofcom after viewers claimed they had seen Amanda's nipples as she wore a deep blue dress. She took to social media to defend herself: "Mmmm, really? Who has nippled this close to their cleavage?" she asked. "FYI, a boned corset dented the girls all night. Surely there are more terrible and important things to write about."
