According to the newspaper The Mirror, the British regulatory body Ofcom received 72 new complaints about the show, with viewers claiming that the dresses worn by the judges were “too revealing for a family program.” Amanda appeared in a long white dress with a deep neckline, while Alesha opted for a shiny, sheer design that also drew attention. Both were praised for their style, but not all viewers responded positively to the bold fashion choices.

Amanda’s response to the criticism

The complaints are nothing new for Amanda, who over the years has received more than 1,000 complaints related to her wardrobe on the ITV show. In an interview with Closer magazine, she firmly responded to the criticism:

“What you see on TV, I genuinely love. I’m always asked about Ofcom complaints, but every outfit I wear on the show is checked before I leave the dressing room, so I never worry. I think people should have fun with fashion!”
Amanda, known for her glamorous and daring style, said she has worked closely with her stylist on every look since joining the judging panel in 2007. She shares the panel with Simon Cowell, Alesha Dixon, and Bruno Tonioli.

Despite the criticism, the show’s audience remains strong, and the presence of strong personalities and bold fashion choices among the judges continues to be one of the elements that ensure the sparkle of Britain’s Got Talent.
