Amanda Holden and pal Alan Carr transform into Margot Robbie and Michael Cera’s characters in Barbie movie to host The Attitude Awards

Amanda Holden and her pal Alan Carr pulled out all the stops on Wednesday night, as they hosted the Attitude Awards at the Roundhouse in Camden, London.

The Heart FM presenter, 52, and the comedian, 47, took inspiration from the hit Barbie movie for one of their many outfits at the LGBTQIA+ ceremony.

Amanda channelled Margot Robbie’s Barbie as she slipped into a pink PVC mini dress that clung to her toned frame and showed off her ample cleavage.

Her long legs were on full display in the daring number and she elevated her height in a pair of strappy pink heels.  

Amanda accessorised with matching PVC fingerless gloves and a tiny beret, as well as a pair of heart-shaped costume-style earrings.

Meanwhile Alan showed off his comedy chops, as he transformed into Michael Cera’s character Allan Sherwood.

He donned the classic colourful striped collared shirt and bright blue shorts, with matching blue sliders.

Alan even donned a ginger wig to copy the hilarious character and imitated his awkward smile and wave. 

Amanda shared a slew of photos on her Instagram on Wednesday to show off her and Alan’s impeccable outfits. 

The Britain’s Got Talent star underwent two more costume changes on the night, walking the red carpet in a little black Celia Kritharioti dress with a dramatic ruffled train, showcasing her toned pins.

She then slipped into an electric blue outfit, which featured a PVC co-ord and a netted dress with a feathered hem. 

Speaking about hosting the awards, Amanda said: ‘Since being crowned an Honorary Gay in 2017 it’s always been a dream of mine to host the Attitude Awards and I couldn’t think of a better person to co-host with than my dear friend Alan Carr.

‘It’s so important right now to stand together as one and embrace this beautifully diverse world we live in and accept everyone for who they are.

‘I can’t wait to be surrounded by the community while dishing out the gongs in this year’s ceremony.’

Alan added: ‘It’s been a mixed year for our LGBTQIA+ family, some amazing progress has been made and yet some really distressing setbacks have knocked us for six, which just makes the Attitude Awards even more important and essential.

‘I am thrilled to be not only hosting this night but doing it with one of my besties Amanda! The most campest, raucous, fun night in the LGBTQIA+ calendar has just been given a bit more sparkle!’

Comedian Joe Lycett, singer Dame Shirley Bassey and former footballer Alex Scott are among those honoured at the awards this year.

Joe was given the Comedy Award after hosting a stunt for his Channel 4 show where he threatened to destroy £10,000 of his own money unless David Beckham pulled out of his deal with Qatar over their treatment of homosexuality.

The 35-year-old later revealed he had not destroyed the cash through a shredder, and had actually donated the sum to LGBT+ charities.

The Sport Award went to BBC pundit Scott, who wore a OneLove rainbow armband during a live broadcast of the football competition.

Becky Hill, who performed at the event, was given the Music Award and American singer Jacob Lusk of Gabriels was given the Breakthrough Award.

Lusk, who was on stage with Sir Elton John at Glastonbury, sang Diamonds Are Forever in tribute to this year’s Honorary Gay recipient Dame Shirley Bassey.

Eurovision star Mae Muller sang I Wrote A Song while drag act Le Gateau Chocolat – honoured with the culture award – sang Dame Shirley’s This Is My Life.

American TikTok star Dylan Mulvaney was also given the Woman Of The Year Award following the transgender influencer receiving backlash for opening a Bud Light in a video on Instagram in April as part of a promotional contest for the beer brand.

Footballer Jake Daniels, fashion designer Daniel W Fletcher, RuPaul’s Drag Race winner Sasha Colby and actor Robert Madge – for his play My Son’s A Queer – were also honoured during the ceremony.

Donna and Jenny Taylor – the family of one of serial killer Stephen Port’s victims – have also been given the Inspiration gong.

The sisters of Jack Taylor called for a public inquiry into the Metropolitan Police in March and said they believe police would have reacted differently if their brother had been a woman.
