SHOCK! Kelly Brook axed from Britain’s Got Talent

Actress dropped from show in first week

Kelly Brook signed a £200,000 contract

Kelly Brook has been forced to leave Britain’s Got Talent after just six days.

The actress joined Simon Cowell, 49, Piers Morgan, 43, and Amanda Holden, 37, on the panel last Tuesday.

But after reviewing tapes, show producers decided the format was too ‘complicated’ with four judges.

Simon, who recruited Kelly, 29, to 'add more glamour to the show', is sad to see her go.

‘I have genuinely enjoyed working with Kelly, she is absolutely lovely and a complete professional,’ he says.

‘But its become clear the format doesn't support another judge and we will never add a fourth judge to the panel.’

Last year, teen heartthrob George Sampson, 15, won the show with his break-dancing skills.
