Amanda Holden's Unrecognisable Tesco Undercover Adventure
Television presenter Amanda Holden, aged 55, looked completely unrecognisable as she went undercover for a hilarious Tesco promotional advert on Friday. The Britain's Got Talent judge wore a dark brunette wig with a side parting, clear glasses, and a full blue Tesco uniform disguise in a clever attempt to seamlessly blend in with the supermarket's staff members.
Blending In with Shoppers and Staff
In a promotional video clip released by the retailer, the celebrity star can be seen actively helping customers, larking about playfully in the store aisles, reducing grocery prices, working efficiently on the checkout tills, and engaging in friendly chats with shoppers who remained blissfully unaware of her true identity. The skit concluded with Amanda exiting the shop dramatically, tearing off her disguise to reveal herself, as a shocked passerby exclaimed: 'It's Amanda Holden'.
Speaking directly towards the camera with a smile, Amanda replied confidently: 'Yes, it's me. Tesco helping you get everything you need. See you on my next shift,' before tossing her wig triumphantly into the air. This amusing stunt follows another recent incident where Amanda had viewers in hysterics with a racy confession about her bedroom prowess to her best friend, comedian Alan Carr, aged 49.
Cheeky Bedroom Banter with Alan Carr
In a throwback clip from their popular BBC television series, Amanda & Alan’s Italian Job, the TV star boasted boldly that she was 'brilliant' in bed. The Britain's Got Talent judge and the comedian took a brief break from renovating their Italian property to test out one of the beds, with Alan seizing the opportunity to quiz Amanda about her personal sleeping habits.
He inquired curiously: 'What are you like in bed? I mean do you move-' before Amanda quickly cut in to cheekily quip: 'I’m brilliant, apparently'. As the Chatty Man star burst into fits of giggles, she smirked playfully and added: 'Course I’m going to say that.' Alan then clarified his question: 'No, I mean, do you move around?' and she replied by lying flat on her back with her hands folded neatly on her chest, adopting the position commonly referred to as the 'mummy' or 'corpse' pose.
Amanda - who recently made another cheeky confession that she enjoys wearing a Sex And The City-inspired pearl thong at home - insisted firmly: 'I sleep like this, and I don’t move.' The hilarious interactions had fans in stitches, and they took to social media platforms to praise the two besties, writing comments such as: 'Love you guys! You kill me! new series asap please!'; 'I love you both you have me in hysterics of laughter'; 'Cheeky!'; and 'Absolutely nutters. Love you both so much.'
Amanda's Preference for Canine Companions
Amanda's playful confession about her sleeping habits comes shortly after she made a cheeky swipe at her husband, Chris Hughes, by revealing that she actually prefers to sleep with her dogs. Appearing at Crufts 2026 earlier this month, she gushed enthusiastically to Claudia Winkleman about her two beloved dogs, Minnie and Rudy, whose portraits were embroidered artistically across the back of her jacket.
She joked lightheartedly: 'I did a DNA test on Minnie because we didn't know what she was and the result came back that I am the mother, which was a relief!' She went on to quiz Claudia about her own pets, saying: 'No, she's a shih tzu and toy spaniel, and she literally is the sweetest - you've got a Spaniel?' Claudia sheepishly admitted: 'Yes, I've got a spaniel who I French kiss...', but Amanda confessed openly: 'Well, I do the same, I bathe with my dogs. But there was a lot of comments, I had a lot of comments about that.'
Asked whether she allows her four-legged friends to sleep in the bed alongside her too, Amanda then continued: 'Only when Chris isn't there. My husband Chris, if he sees the dogs, he goes in the spare room because he can't sleep with them there, they take up all the space.' Amanda joked amusingly: 'I often choose to sleep with the dogs! Sorry, darling, it's not Friday!' Claudia quipped back: 'It's not birthdays or Christmas', to which Amanda giggled: 'Exactly!' before the Traitors host suggested they head off to 'cuddle and French kiss some dogs'.
