Amanda Holden, 54, and her daughters transformed into three Traitors to celebrate Halloween – and her friend Alan Carr, who is on Celebrity Traitors, loved the costume idea
Amanda Holden paid a special tribute to her pal Alan Carr as she unveiled her Halloween transformation alongside her lookalike daughters.
The Britain’s Got Talent judge, 54, went all out for Halloween and channelled her inner Traitor alongside her daughters, 19-year-old Lexi and 13-year-old Hollie. The trio donned cloaks and carried lanterns as they posed for pictures to mark October 31.
Their costumes resembled those worn by Amanda’s friend Alan and his fellow Traitors on the Claudia Winkleman-led TV show, Celebrity Traitors. Sharing a video of her turning to the camera as well as two photos with her daughters, Amanda wrote on Instagram, “A trait(or) trick for you. Ahead of tomorrow …..#HappyHalloween.”

Alan, 49, loved the costume idea as he commented: “This is brilliant!!” A fan told Alan: “Now you need to be Amanda.” Presenter Claudia, 53, also gave Amanda her seal of approval as she commented on the post with four red heart emojis. Ruth Langsford wrote: “Brilliant!!!”
But the Traitors-inspired look wasn’t the only transformation Amanda made this Halloween. She also dressed as as Glinda and Elphaba from Wicked alongside her fellow Heart Radio host, Ashley Roberts. Amanda wore a strapless pink ballgown paired with a silver tiara and matching wand, while Ashley was painted green and wore Elphaba’s iconic black witch’s dress.
The Instagram post was captioned: “Defying gravity before their first coffee! @noholdenback, @jamie.theakston & @iamashleyroberts bring a little WICKED magic to Heart Breakfast this #Halloween!”
After starring in Celebrity Traitors, Alan has been tipped to become a new presenter of Strictly Come Dancing. The comedian is vying to win the reality TV series, which draws to a close on Thursday night on BBC One. PR experts say his stint on the programme, a spin-off from the civilians’ version, has helped further boost Alan’s popularity, following previous success with his own titular show on Channel 4.
And now the broadcaster is being touted to step in to host Strictly Come Dancing next year, following the departures of Claudia Winkleman and Tess Daly. One insider said: “More people are watching Alan than are watching Strictly right now. He’s been catapulted to the A-list. The star dust is practically dripping off him.”
It is said Alan, the son of a former professional footballer, thought he would have been the first kicked off The Celebrity Traitors, but he has survived to reach the final five contestants. His antics alongside the likes of Sir Stephen Fry, Kate Garraway, Clare Balding and Celia Imrie have had millions of Brits hooked since October 8.
Alan, who won a BAFTA for Alan Carr: Chatty Man in 2013, was praised for displaying his “super competitive streak” and charisma, traits insiders believe make him an ideal match for Strictly. A source told the Daily Mail: “He’s an old-fashioned showbiz pro who would be just perfect hosting Strictly. If he does manage to win Traitors it will be a sign to the BBC that he has the star quality to present its flagship show.”
