Summery brights: Amanda Holden looked summery in a fuchsia dress as she arrived at the Britain's Got Talent auditions in Birmingham today
After flashing her enviable bottom in her new TV show Amanda Holden's Fantasy Lives last week, you wouldn't think Amanda Holden would need any support.
But as she arrived at the Britain's Got Talent auditions in Birmingham today, the actress unwittingly flashed her control pants.
Looking svelte and toned in a fuchsia mini-dress, the 38-year-old didn't realise her hemline had caught on her Spanx pants, exposing them to photographers as she stepped out of her car at the city's Hippodrome.

Pert: Holden showed off her bottom when she played a Parisian showgirl in her TV show last week
Holden's use of the pants is surprising given her bottom-flashing in her TV show last week, when she stripped down to a revealing outfit to play a Parisian showgirl.
While Holden may be embarrassed to realise they were showing, she's made no secret of her love for control pants.
She said last year: 'On fat days, I wear Spanx. When I'm working I wear Spanx control knickers to smooth things out.'
The Spanx range of body forming stockings and control pants, which sell for between £20 and £50, hold in the bottom, thighs and stomach, are virtually undetectable.
Spanx, invented by American entrepreneur Sara Blakely, promise to 'flatter your figure from top to bottom'.
Other celebrity fans of Spanx include Beyonce Knowles, Tori Spelling, Girls Aloud, Tyra Banks, Gwyneth Paltrow, Madonna, Katie Holmes and Jessica Alba.
And flashing her control pants weren't Holden's only wardrobe malfunction this week, yesterday her perfectly coiffed haircut was ruined by the strong winds as she posed for a photocall in London.
The Britain's Got Talent judge was helping friend Gina Hemmings open her new health and beauty salon in Kew, south west London, when she was got caught out by

Sleek silhouette: Holden's pants help her achieve the right look in her dress
Dressed in a dark grey jersey dress, light grey cardigan and knee-high boots, Holden looked well-groomed as he posed alongside a tree outside Hemmings' new business.
As the pair smiled and quaffed Buck's Fizz champagne cocktails, they were unprepared to the strong gust of wind which sent their blonde hair vertical.
But Holden quickly adjusted her messy hair and was back to looking neat again in time for cutting the ribbon at the entrance of the salon.

Speaking at the launch yesterday, the 38-year-old admitted she and her fellow BGT judges Simon Cowell and Piers Morgan had been disappointed with the 'talent' at the Cardiff auditions last week.
She said: 'We've had some really fun days for all the wrong reasons. We've just had a couple of dodgy days in Cardiff. It can only get better.'
While Holden is hoping to find some talented people on the show, she said the judges aren't expecting to discover a new Susan Boyle, who has tasted phenomenal success since becoming the runner-up last year.

She explained: 'I think with Susan Boyle you have to realise it will never be repeated in history again - not for the next 20 years anyway.
'You have to keep that as a moment of history and then just get on with the rest of the show and not look back. But everyone obviously has higher expectations because of her.
'People now know that it's not just about winning £100,000 and being on the Royal Variety show, it's about potentially going global. It has changed the whole idea of the show.'

Meanwhile, Holden showed off her newly-acquired stuntwoman skills on her ITV show Amanda Holden's Fantasy Lives last night.
Holden mastered 180 degree handbreak turns and jumped from a 30foot building wearing a harness during the hour long show.
Unfortunately, the programme hasn't been such a hit with audiences as ITV expected.
Last week's episode - the first in the series - received 2.48million viewers.
