Amanda is well-known for her daring outfits on the Britain's Got Talent panel, and has faced a slew of Ofcom complaints for some of her most controversial selections.
In the past she's sparked thousands of letters of anger to the broadcasting watchdog from viewers outraged over her flashing the flesh.
This has included a plunging wet-look dress as well as garments with plunging necklines for the family-friendly tea-time series.
Now she has insisted: "What you see on TV, I really love.
"I'm always asked about the Ofcom complaints, but every outfit on the show is checked before I leave my dressing room, so I'm never worried."
She added to Closer Magazine: "I think people should have fun with fashion!"
It remains to be seen what she will wear during the show final this weekend.
SPEAK OUT
The mum of two previously insisted BGT is "the perfect opportunity to take risks".
She previously told The Sun her outfits are so famously controversial they're now monitored before she steps on-stage.
"There's now a whole body of people that knock on my door and come and stare at my chest before we go on air," she explained.
Simon Cowell makes HUGE dig at Amanda Holden's age in Britain's Got Talent live show judges row-
There's a t*t committee. There are so many brilliant people, they come down, knock on the door and there's the lady who's the producer who said, 'Mandy, it looks great'."
Meanwhile, cheeky Amanda recently revealed her plan to sex up her outfits for her new TV show away from BGT.
She confessed to The Sun she might sex up her overalls for any future series of Amanda & Alan's Spanish Job.
She said: 'It's a joy to wear something so different, and nice to be able to breathe out, with no side boob.
"Though next year I might have some side boob.
'For now, I always go pretty classy and standard. I've got my name on the back, but I didn't even do that in Spanish — I've got Handy Mandy. I should have put Handios Mandios.'

Love Island major twist as TWO dumped islanders return to cause chaos days before final
LOVE Island has revealed two original stars have returned to the villa as bombshells to cause chaos before the final - weeks after being dumped from the show. Irish stunner Megan and Spanish lad Blu have appeared in a teaser for tomorrow night's eipsode. 5 Two major Love Island stars are returning to the villa after being dumped earlier in the series 5 Megan has returned to Love Island - after taking swipes at Conor on social media 5 The original islanders are returning as bombshells Iain Stirling revealed the incredible comeback and The Sun understands the pair entered the villa tonight. The public previously turned on Megan after she dumped Tommy for Conor in her final few days. Megan was voted least favourite girl after dumping Tommy for Conor, before being axed. Blu was dumped after being left single - and had to fight for his place opposite bombshell Shea. And this stunned viewer said "This feels illegal; if the public voted Megan out, why tf bring her back?????" The lads were told to decide between them who would go home, but when neither gave up their place, their co-stars made the decision for them. Megan said before heading back to Love Island: "I'm excited to go back in, I think I left quite abruptly and I'm going back in for some clarity. "It was an easy decision to make. When you can't speak to people for a couple of weeks and have to watch them on telly every night, you want some answers." Blu said: "There's a bit of open space now and people know the game a little bit more, so hopefully the couple of girls I've got my eyes on are willing to explore. "I told you all from the get go I'm not leaving and I'm not f***ing leaving!" Axed Love Island star Megan takes swipe at Conor for 'lipsing every girl' after telling her to 'wait for him' Baffled fans raced to X after seeing Megan slow-mo walk back into the villa for a second time. One shared: "What is going ON!!! Megan was just in Mykonos… I can't wait to see this play out. This is BIGGGG" Another said: "Ok so there's bringing Megan to break up Conor and Shakira unnecessarily.. and they're bringing back Blu because.. why?" The announcement came shortly after Maya Jama returned to dump a couple from the island. Islanders were ordered to line up in their couples as Maya announced the results of the latest public vote for their favourite boy and girl. Maya revealed the bottom three girls were Billykiss, Emma, and Angel and the bottom three boys were Boris, Conor, and Harry. With the fewest votes, Emma and Boris were dumped from the island, ending Casa Amor's most talked-about comeback and Love Island's biggest love triangle. Both Emma and Boris had entered the villa as Casa Amor bombshells. Emma is Harry's ex-girlfriend of four years and had been trying to rekindle things — to no avail.

Charity overwhelmed in Emmerdale surrogacy story as she makes revelation to Mack
A difficult road (Picture: ITV) Charity Dingle (Emma Atkins) offered to be Sarah Sugden's (Katie Hill) surrogate when she thought there were no other options, but that selfless offer may be coming back to bite her in Emmerdale. When Cain Dingle (Jeff Hordley) originally dropped the idea of surrogacy in Sarah's lap Charity was livid – that he would get her hopes up with something that was never going to be viable. Dr Liam (Jonny McPherson) confirmed as much when he told Cain that no agency would touch her with a barge pole given her life expectancy, among other things. Cain then got himself scammed by an agency who took his money and ran, leaving everyone desperate, distraught, and back to square one. So, Charity stepped up. Charity failed to tell Mack about the plan (Picture: ITV) Cain feared it wouldn't work (Picture: ITV) She chose not to share this monumental decision with husband Mack (Lawrence Robb), however, and instead he found out from busybody Pollard (Chris Chittell), and when he learned that his wife planned to carry her great grandchild, he had a few things to say about it. But as things stand, it's full steam ahead with Sarah giddy with excitement over this new plan. She and Charity get prepared for their hospital visit while Mack busies himself with work to try and forget. When he bumps into best pal Aaron (Danny Miller) and confesses he won't be going to the hospital, Aaron tries to get him to have a rethink.

If he's not careful, it'll soon be too late. Before he can, Charity reveals something of her own – Sarah and Jacob's attentiveness has left her feeling completely overwhelmed, and it's only a sign of things to come. When she gets Mack alone, she confesses her true feelings, and it's a great opportunity for him to do the same. But will he?
