Viewers of the Eurovision Song Contest appear to have been left divided as Alesha Dixon made her return to hosting duties. The Britain's Got Talent judge swapped ITV to appear on BBC One as the grand final of the world's biggest music competition took place.
Alesha has been seen multiple times this week as she hosted the contest's two 2023 semi-final shows alongside Ted Lasso actress, Ukrainian singer Julia Sanina to take to the stage. But on Saturday night (May 13) as the final kicked off at Liverpool's M&S Bank Arena, the trio were joined by Eurovision legend Graham Norton.
But fans couldn't help but comment on singer-turned-TV star Alesha as she stepped out in a glittering, ab-bearing outfit. The former Mis-Teeq star looked stunning in a bedazzled blue gown that featured a cut-out at the waist to show off her toned physique and a super-high split giving a glimpse at her toned pins.

Rushing to social media to comment, @alwaysreadlabel tweeted: "#Eurovision #Eurovision2023 Wow! Alesha Dixon is looking stunning!" @KopPhill said: "Alesha Dixon looks absolutely stunning, she seems to be ageless. #Eurovision."
@laurapurkess joked: "Alesha Dixon has no business looking this fabulous it’s #eurovision you’re meant to look ridiculous sorry rules are rules." @TheMorrisLand posted: "Alesha Dixon is on fire. She looks amazing #Eurovision." @PerveenAkhtar added: "Alesha Dixon looks phenomenal! #Eurovision."
However, some Eurovision viewers were left divided when Alesha burst into a mini rap. She's got form for this as earlier this week, the 44-year-old stunned Eurovision 2023 semi-final viewers on Tuesday night as she broke out a hugely unexpected freestyle rap.
It appeared nobody was expecting Alesha to 'spit bars' as she dropped a freestyle rap about Eurovision and host city Liverpool live on BBC1. The rap was inspired by Angela Bassett's 'The Thing' but with the words changed.
On Saturday night's though, Alesha put a royal spin on her performance. The rap came after the sixth song was performed by France’s entry La Zarra.
In the break between performances, Alesha rapped: "Six acts in and the competition is in full swing, what a week it’s been. All killers, no filler, big up King Charles and Queen Camilla."
In response, @BeckyTheStan tweeted: "Yes Alesha. Bring back Misteeq!!!! #eurovision." @AlanWolfson posted: "Alesha Dixon spitting flames on #Eurovision." @toonpete85 posted: "I never thought I would see one third of Mis-Teeq rapping about Charles and Camilla during the #Eurovision."
But @AndareVeloce said: "Can someone please tell Alesha to stop rapping #Eurovision #Eurovision2023." @rhithesmeghead echoed: "Alesha please stop the rapping #Eurovision #Eurovision2023."
@FrankieMaguire asked: "Did Alesha just say 'All Villa No Filler' or did I mishear her? Nice to see some recognition. Good on yer, Eurovision. #Eurovision2023 #Eurovision." @shirlpuzz added: "Alesha rapping about Charles and Camilla? Leave it for f**k sake #Eurovision."
