And Amanda Holden put on a defiant display as she went braless in another daring gown on Thursday’s semi-final of the reality show.

The off-the-shoulder gown, which put the blonde beauty in danger of a wardrobe malfunction, cinched at at the star’s slender waist before flaring into a stunning full skirt.
The star boosted her height with a pair of black stiletto sandals.
The presenter brushed her blonde locks back into a bun, while she used a natural palette of make-up to highlight her pretty features.
The appearance comes as the judge, who is famous for making controversial fashion choices on the ITV talent contest, opted for a sheer dress which showed off plenty of flesh and was branded ‘inappropriate’ by viewers on Wednesday.
In total, Ofcom received 22 complaints about last night’s Britain’s Got Talent – nine of which about Amanda’s dress.

An Ofcom spokesperson told MailOnline: ‘We are assessing these complaints against our broadcasting rules, but are yet to decide whether or not to investigate.’
After she stepped out in the racy ensemble, viewers were divided, and whilst some rushed to compliment the stunning ensemble, others wished she would dress more ‘appropriately’.
Taking to Twitter, viewers penned: ‘Amanda it’s a family show as lovely as your dress is it was not appropriate. I was slightly embarrassed’.
‘Need to dress more appropriately for a family show!!! Lovely dress for the right occasion but BGT is not it!!!’, another said.

One user wrote: ‘Beautiful dress hun, but your boob is popping out with camera angles from the side.’
‘An amazing dress but not really for family prime time TV’, another said.
However, some fans were fans of Amanda’s gown, with one user tweeting: ‘Amanda looks like a princess in that dress’, while another wrote: ‘How stunning was @AmandaHolden tonight absolutely beautiful’.
But Amanda appeared to see the funny side of her very revealing dress, as she took to Instagram to share a joke about a water bottle sitting on the judges panel acting as a ‘nipple cover’.

The TV star’s sartorial choices on Britain’s Got Talent are often a talking point among fans of the series.
Amanda’s wardrobe has led to some controversial moments in the past after a daring Julien Macdonald gown she wore during the semi-final of BGT two years ago attracted a staggering 663 Ofcom complaints.
The plunging floor-length dress was slashed to the navel, with a cut-out panel that reached down to the small of her back – and came under fire when furious viewers deemed it ‘inappropriate’.

But despite the £11,000 ensemble causing hundreds of viewers to complain to Ofcom, the media regulator decided not to investigate.
Ofcom said that while it recognised the dress ‘had potential to offend some viewers during what is a family show’ – the outfit ‘would not have exceeded most viewers’ expectations’.
And this wasn’t the first time risque outfit choices on Britain’s Got Talent caused fans to lodge official complaints.
In 2016, Ofcom again decided not to investigate the ITV show after outfits worn by Holden and fellow judge Alesha Dixon sparked 90 complaints from viewers.

Amanda also found herself the subject of Ofcom complaints earlier in the week.
Ofcom received 200 complaints about Monday night’s Britain’s Got Talent after she swore live on the show.
Yet taking a light-hearted approach to her F-bomb, the TV presenter joked to hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly: ‘I’ve washed my mouth out with soap, so we’re all good!’

Amanda was forced to apologise to viewers after she swore during a terrifying act by The Haunting the evening before.
But expressing her profuse remorse was seemingly not enough for some fans, who wasted no time lodging complaints with governing media watchdog, Ofcom.
At the time of writing, 192 fans have been in touch with the regulating body – although only 38 of these were directly in reference to Amanda’s use of the ‘f-word’.
The other 154 had more of a problem with the nature of the spooky act, which saw Amanda led into a basement to be terrified by women dressed as ghosts. MailOnline have approached Ofcom for further comment.

Uh-oh! The judge was left trembling with fear as contestant Elizabeth took her backstage to perform a spooky set on Monday’s show, causing the TV personality to shout ‘f***!’
Amanda was left trembling with fear as contestant Elizabeth took her off to perform the stunt, live on TV.
Moments later, the former Kiss Me Kate actress issued an apology for her outburst as she stated: ‘I really want to apologise for saying a terrible word. I know my kids are watching so I apologise for that. I can honestly say I feel terrified.’
During the contestant’s performance, the presenter met the ghost of Agatha’s 11-year-old daughter, with the apparition creepily singing Rock-A-Bye Baby, before a mirror suddenly shattered.
Following her apology, fellow judge Simon Cowell poked fun at the star’s blunder as he joked: ‘It was like being next door to you on your honeymoon night.’
