BGT icon admits secret crush on Amanda Holden as he gushes over 'ageless' beauty

Diversity star Perri Kiely has opened up about his secret crush on Britain’s Got Talent judge Amanda Holden.

During an exclusive chat with Daily Star, Perri showered the Heart Radio presenter in compliments and was shocked to discover that she is 51-years-old.

He exclaimed: “She does [look amazing]. Maybe she’s like, a vampire? They don’t age, do they? She’s probably in a little group with, like, Pharrell. They’ve got a cult thing going on.”

When asked if he has a crush on Holden, who previously judged him when he competed in the ITV talent show, he could barely hold back his excitement.

Kiely admitted: “Oh yeah! Absolutely. I can’t deny it, but we’ll leave it at that. Yeah, yeah, yes with a full stop!”

He then joked: “Look at me, I’m trying to contain it.”

Perri, who auditioned as part of dance troupe Diversity back in 2009, also lifted the lid on one of the scariest men in the business.

Kiely confessed that Simon Cowell is “one of the nicest people he’s ever met” and that “everyone asks him what Simon is really like”.

The dancer said: “He’s nice! I mean, I wouldn’t want to get on the wrong side of Simon Cowell. I don’t want to get on the wrong side of that open white shirt!”

“He’s really nice, he’s always really nice, always saying ‘hi,’ he’s saying how well we’re doing – it’s always nice to catch up!”

Fellow BGT panellist David Walliams has recently stepped down from his position as judge on the ITV programme and Perri seemed sad to see him go.

Kiely praised: “I feel like David Walliams is pretty iconic to the show now. You never know what he’s going to do – he’s always making some joke or getting on someone’s nerves. He’s always that judge that puts through the random act, you think: ‘There’s no way they’re getting through!’ But he’ll get them there.”

The Kiss FM presenter claimed that the show “needs someone to fill his shoes” and confessed that he would be up for the challenge.

“I’d do it! I’d get fired after a year because I wouldn’t be as funny, but I’d give it a go – why not? Might as well get stuck in. Life’s about faking it until you make it, that’s what I always say.”
