Amanda Holden wows as sexy Santa – but racy costume leaves fans fuming

Amanda Holden reveals her first ever tattoo

Amanda Holden was inundated with backlash after taking to Instagram to unveil her Christmas costume.

She was alongside her fellow radio presenter Ashley Roberts, who opted for a green dress, striped red and white knee-high socks, heels, and a Santa hat.

The duo were surrounded by a crowd and frolicked under fake snow outside Heart HQ to reveal Christmas came early for the station.

After a countdown, the blonde bombshells pressed a buzzer together to kick off the radio station’s festive celebrations.

They delighted onlookers with Mariah Carey’s classic All I Want For Christmas blasting out.
