Amanda Holden: 'Simon Cowell Is Not Gay'

Amanda Holdenhas insisted to journalists that herBritain's Got Talentco-judge and boss Simon Cowell is NOT gay.

The actress-turned-reality show judge was speaking to The Sun in advance of the new series starting on ITV tonight - and was adamant that SiCo just has a short attention span when it comes to women.

"I don't think he's gay and I've got a really good radar. I've known people were gay before they knew they were gay.

"Simon's a spirogyra. He's a single-celled sex atom. He might have a little dabble.

"I think he needs the company of women. He needs to have sex but he doesn't need to get married, he doesn't need company in that way.

"He just needs to have a dip in and out as it were. Dip in and out, keep the cab running and go home and have some beans on toast."

She even said she thought the fact that she was married was the only reason he hadn't tried it on with her.

Britain's Got Talent returns to ITV1 this evening at 7pm - and viewers will see SiCo on stage with a sexy lady dancer.
