Amanda Holden 'won't be covered up' in BGT semi-finals after Ofcom complaints

Amanda Holden has defiantly declared that she will not be covering up for the Britain's Got Talent semi-finals next week.

Over the years, Britain's Got Talent has been hit with Ofcom complaints from viewers horrified to see Amanda flash a bit of flesh.

But it's never bothered Amanda, 51, who will look as incredible as ever in another daring outfit when she returns to the judging panel next week for the live shows.

Her £11,000 black sequinned gown - slashed at the waist to show off her cleavage and dipped low at her back - saw her receive 633 Ofcom complaints back in 2017.

"That dress was hysterical – it was Julien Macdonald," she told OK! "I had bits of fish wire underneath my breasts trying to hold that together.

"But, look, I'm from a small-chest family, plus you know I'm 48 years old. It's all quite laughable, but all everyone seems to talk about.”

She added: "It's been called another national ­crisis – but, oh no, I will not be covered up."

At the time, furious fans took to Twitter to lash out at her outfit, with one scandalised viewer writing: "So Amanda is effectively topless on Britain's Got Talent."

While another fumed: "What the hell is Amanda wearing on BGT, totally NOT suitable."

A few years later Amanda stepped out in a lace dress with a spider web covering one of her breasts.

As well as the sheer dress revealing half of her torso and side of her hip, the gown had a flower pattern running up the legs, covering her from below the navel.

Another of Amanda's outfits saw her wear a plunging sparkly black leotard and a sheer skirt.

She told The Sun: "My t*ts seem to become the show's biggest talking point every year."

"Will people be complaining to Ofcom? I hope so, I really do. I haven't done my job if they aren't."

*Britain's Got Talent's live semi-finals air all next week at 8pm on ITV
