Simon Cowell pays Amanda Holden compliments


Simon Cowell has been "amazingly complimentary" of Amanda Holden’s looks.

The 43-year-old star – who serves on the ‘Britain’s Got Talent’ judging panel with Simon – has received more than a few comments about her glowing appearance on the show this year and finds it extremely flattering as her colleague sees her "right up close".

She explained: "He’s been amazingly complimentary to me this year.

"I know there have been comments on the sly from Simon, too, about how I look, so of course that’s the biggest compliment of all to me because I’m sitting next to someone who sees me right up close. I can’t get away with anything!"

Amanda admits she has often changed her hairstyle or make-up depending on Simon’s reaction, although he would never be as forward as to tell her he didn’t like her appearance.

She added: "He’s never rude, but does this thing where he’ll just kind of stare and his eyes will widen.

"I remember one time I came on with this particularly Eighties-style hair and he just kind of honed in on it with this look on his face. I thought, ‘Quick, hairbrush!’ "

Meanwhile, Amanda insists she isn’t in competition with fellow judge Alesha Dixon, 35, and is tired of people trying to stoke female rivalry between them.

She told Britain’s HELLO! magazine: "One of the biggest annoyances I’ve had was when Alesha joined the show and I got hundreds of questions saying, ‘How do you feel about working with someone eight years younger than you?’ I thought, ‘I don’t give a toss.’

"Perhaps if it had been someone similar to me, then possibly it might have become a sticky situation, but Alesha and I couldn’t be more different, physically and in our style."
