A leaked transcript has revealed that Britain’s Got Talent judge David Walliams branded an elderly contestant a ‘c**t’ and made sexualised and demeaning comments about a female contender while recording an episode of the ITV talent show.
David Walliams, one of the UK’s best-known television personalities and children’s book writers, was recorded referring to one contestant as a ‘c**t’ and saying of another: ‘She thinks you want to f**k her, but you don’t.’
The X-rated comments, told by a newspaper outlet, are said to have taken place during a recorded audition performance at the London Palladium in January 2020.
In one incident an older performer engaged in lighthearted repartee with the judges in which he made a jibe about David Walliams.
After the audition, the pensioner left, after which David Walliams is said to have described him as a ‘c**t three times.
Microphones used to capture the conversation between the judges picked up the remarks.
In a different incident, a female contestant auditioning on the same show had walked off stage.
When her performance was over, David Walliams commented that she was like the slightly boring girl you meet in the pub that thinks you want to f**k them, but you don’t.
David Walliams then repeated: ‘She thinks you want to f**k her, but you don’t.’
He later added: ‘I know, she’s just like: ‘Oh, f**k off!’ I was saying, she thinks you want to f**k her, but you don’t.
‘It’s the last thing on your mind, but she’s like: ‘Yep, I bet you do!’
‘No, I don’t! I had a bit of a b***r, but now it’s going, it’s now shrivelled up inside my body.’
The former judge of Britain’s Got Talent, Piers Morgan tweeted that the allegations were just the tip of the iceberg and he labelled David Walliams a nasty fraud.
Piers Morgan was a judge on the show for the first four series. While the fifth series took place with only three judges, David Walliams started judging on the show in 2012.
He judges alongside Alesha Dixon, Amanda Holden and Simon Cowell.
There’s no indication that the other judges heard the comments or made any such comments themselves, and these were the only such comments across three episodes looked at by a newspaper outlet.
In a statement, David Walliams told a newspaper outlet that he would like to apologise to the people that he made the rude remarks during breaks in filming for Britain’s Got Talent in 2020.
This is supposed to be a family fun show and David Walliams needs to go, but unfortunately, most celebs are unbelievably pompous, and now, maybe David Walliams can join James Corden for an omelette to discuss their trip to Cancelvill.
David Walliams is just another so-called, not-so-funny man on TV and this show’s definitely past its sell-by date, but then again, where would all these presenters be if the show stopped? Perhaps they’re past their sell-by date as well.
If a person who works in this industry doesn’t know about a hot mic by now, they never will, or they just don’t care. It’s not like he was in his living room, he was at work enveloped by audio and visual recording devices.
The trouble is, these people are so full of themselves that they truly think they’re better than and more noteworthy than other people – news flash, you’re not! And an apology alters nothing. It was clearly what he was thinking and saying at the time.
This show is no longer about British talent, so the title should be altered, and the selection of judges is the biggest issue. We don’t need judges that are barely attired, leggy brainless judges or mouth look at me, and we now need a new arrangement of judges that really concentrate on the artists and their talents.
