ITV Britain's Got Talent fans have savaged Amanda Holden for a comment to a contestant on Monday night. BGT judge Amanda was back on ITV helping judge the semi-finalists from 8pm on Monday May 29.
Magician Enzo performed in the Britain’s Got Talent Semi-Final last night and wowed fans with his illusionist skills. But Amanda w- who was alongside Simon Cowell, Alesha Dixon and Bruno Tonioli on the panel - came under fire for a comment to him.
"Youre fit, you’re French and the whole thing just oozes sexiness. It’s sexy magic!” the 52-year-old said. The mum-of-two's comment left fans at home angry.

“Amanda saying Enzo looked fit rather offering a genuine critique that focused on his clear and apparent magician talent. Bit awkz and kinda creepy!” a fan wrote. And a second raged: “So people are good if they are fit is what Amanda is saying.”
“I hate Amanda’s double standards. Imagine Simon drooling over a sexy woman,” another typed. “Honestly that really weirded me out I was like why would you say that," another agreed. Musa Motha has emerged as the new favourite to win Britain’s Got Talent after he got through to the grand final after the first semi-final on Monday night. Musa won the public vote and went straight through, while Amy Lou and Abi found themselves facing the judges' decision.
The two incredible acts fought off stiff competition from United 2 Dance, Gamal John, Ichikawa, Enzo Weyne, Parkour Collective and Abi Carter-Simpson. Sam Boswell, spokesperson for online bookies BetVictor, said: “Musa Motha is our new favourite at 1/2 as he became the first contestant to go straight through to the final after last night’s semi-final. Musa blew viewers away with his emotional dance performance.
“The South African native had his leg amputated aged 10 due to cancer and received the first ever joint golden buzzer from the judges in his audition. Choirboy Malakai Bayoh had been leading the betting market since it opened but has been knocked off by Musa Motha. Malakai’s odds have drifted slightly as he was coming in at 7/4 last week, he now comes in at 9/4. He stunned the judging panel and viewers at home with his incredible performance in the first weekend of auditions and became Simon’s golden buzzer.”
“Joint third favourites are Ghetto Kids and MB14 at 10/1. Ghetto Kids wowed Bruno Tonioli as he hit the Golden Buzzer for the Ugandan dance group during the performance in a first ever for the show, causing the kids to dance amongst the golden confetti. Their odds have drifted slightly as they were coming in at 5/1 last week. MB14 also comes in at 10/1, he left the judges stunned when he used his vocals and a loop pedal to create a unique track.”
“Other contestants in the market include Johns Boys 16/1, Unity at 16/1, Olivia Lynes at 18/1, Amy Lou at 20/1, and Noodle at 20/1.”
