Amanda Holden flashes toned abs in sequin top and skirt as she leads the glamour on Royal Variety Performance red carpet

AMANDA Holden has arrived for the Royal Variety Performance in London, with the beloved TV star putting on a sultry and sexy display.

The 53-year-old, who co-hosts the national Heart Breakfast radio show on weekday mornings, will be hosting the Royal Variety Performance tonight.

Arriving at the event tonight, Amanda flashed her abs in a sequin top and skirt, leading the glamour and setting the tone for the evening.

The Britain's Got Talent judge rocked a long-sleeved green sparkly sequinned top, which bared her toned abs and midriff.

The top she was wearing appeared to have shoulder pads, which gave her a more squared-off shape on top.

Meanwhile, for the bottom Amanda rocked a gorgeous mint green skirt which sailed down to the ground and fanned out.

The BGT judge rocked her blonde locks down and straight, cascading over her shoulders.

She opted for a stunning makeup look that comprised of a dark smoky eye and a pink lip with a bronzed face base.

Posing up a storm on the red carpet, Amanda beamed for the cameras before she was joined by her pal Alan Carr.

The couple then headed inside to host the hotly-anticipated performance.

Amanda, who will be co-presenting the performance at the iconic Royal Albert Hall, is taking over from iconic presenter Bradley Walsh.

AWKWARD AXE

Bradley, 64, hosted the annual broadcast of the Royal Variety Performance last year but ITV chiefs decided to drop him and pass on the honours to Amanda and Alan.

Amanda and Alan's hosting stint will mark the first time the programme will have been hosted by a pair since 2019.

The King will be attending the performance for the first time as Patron of the Royal Variety Charity, and he will witness several world-class performances from beloved acts.

INCREDIBLE LINEUP

Tonight, King Charles III will enjoy performances from Elton John, Penn & Teller and BGT winner Sydnie Christmas.

Sydnie Christmas will be accompanied by Dave Arch and The Royal Variety Orchestra, while Elton John and David Furnish will introduce something special.

Elton and David will introduce the audience to a sparkling performance from their brand-new musical The Devil Wears Prada, which stars Vanessa Williams.
