Ashley Banjo praises Amanda Holden’s style

Ashley Banjo has praised Amanda Holden’s racy style.

The 31-year-old dancer is proud of his ‘Britain’s Got Talent’ co-star for refusing to dress more demurely on the show, despite constant criticism of her outfits from viewers.

He told The Sun newspaper’s Bizarre TV column: "I don’t see Amanda changing for anyone, let me tell you that.

"She looks good though, so you know what, go for it."

Meanwhile, Amanda, 49, was recently appointed head judge on ‘BGT’ in place of Simon Cowell, 60, who had to miss filming due to his broken back.

Usually Simon leads the panel on the ITV talent show but after breaking his back in three places last month he was absent for the pre-recorded semi-finals.

The panel is also comprised of David Walliams, 49, Alesha Dixon, 41, and stand-in judge Ashley, who is a former winner of the programme as part of the dance troupe Diversity, and Amanda’s new responsibility means she gets the deciding vote on which act goes through to the final if the judges are split.

A source explained: "It makes total sense for Amanda to be head judge with a deciding vote in a deadlock situation.

"She’s the only one, other than Simon, who has been there since day one and has seen it all."

Simon suffered the major injury as he was testing a new electric bike with his six-year-old son Eric at his Malibu home and he required a lengthy operation, which involved having a metal rod inserted into his spine to correct the break.
