Amanda Holden Quotes

1. "Doing "Top of the Pops" is one of my ambitions but I don't want to be one of those actresses who suddenly goes: "oh yeah, I always wanted to be a pop star". I always wanted to show I could perform and then maybe release something once I'd proved myself. Considering my age, I'm not going to wear crop tops and try to be Britney. I like country but I don't think "Amanda Holden's Country Album" would be a huge seller. Maybe a bit more of a crossover like Shania Twain. I wouldn't mind covering Dolly Parton's "Nine To Five".

2. I didn't go nightclubbing much as a teenager in Bournemouth because my friends and I didn't have the money - but we spent a lot of time on the beach, having barbecues, and running into the sea in the middle of the night.

3. I had a weekend job in a shoe shop to get me through college. I had a grant, but when you study in London you need as much money as you can get. I also once sprayed perfume in Boots for a week, but I couldn't stand the smell.

8. I don't care who or what judges me, nothing's going to stop me from living my life how I choose.




9. (to Susan Boyle for the Britain's Got Talent 2009 final) I am proud you represent Britain so brilliantly. I just want to apologize for...the way we treated you before you sang the first time. You made me and everyone else look very stupid.

10. I should have been out there having a wild time like all the other girls my age, but I wasn't. I was going home every night to what was, initially, a very happy marriage.

12. My family are my priority but I've always had a strong work ethic and I like to be busy.

13. (on Susan Boyle) She's gone from a woman who nobody knew to worldwide fame.

14. My mum loves cats so I took her to see the lion cubs which at about a year old are actually quite big. She wasn't scared at all and went straight over and kissed one on the mouth! She thought they were just like her pets at home.

16. I have such a lovely life and I just never imagined that I would miscarry a baby.




17. People have been able to see that as cheeky and as flirty as I am, I am not the dreadful slapper that the press used to portray me as. But it will probably all turn around and people will hate me again in a couple of years.

26. My dream is to have a gay son.



27. Slightly embarrassing. I'd probably eaten too much dinner.
