Amanda Holden took full advantage of an opportunity to poke fun at Jimmy Carr’s appearance, leaving the comedian looking shocked over her bold vibe.
But he didn’t appear to take offence, getting in on the joke at his own expense to mock the cosmetic procedure, having recently come out with his own brutal dig over Amanda’s ‘new face’.
On Saturday evening, the new episode of I Can See Your Voice is set to air on BBC One, the programme where a panel of celebrities and members of the public are tasked with figuring out which contestants are good and bad singers without ever hearing them croon a single note.
In an exclusive clip shared by Metro.co.uk for the second episode of the new series, Amanda, Jimmy, Alison Hammond, Alexandra Burke and presenter Paddy McGuinness meet a pair of friends who first got to know each other while working as apprentices in a hair salon together.
After Paddy asked if they’re still in the profession, Dexter responded: ‘Yeah I’m still there, I’m an international artistic director for the company.’
‘Do I look alright?’ Amanda said while asking for Dexter’s expert feedback, as he assured the stars that they all looked great.

Amanda, who was sitting on the far left, then pointed in Jimmy’s direction, who was sitting on the other side at the far right.
‘What about his new hair, because that was from someone else – it was donated,’ the Britain’s Got Talent judge quipped, leaving This Morning star Alison cackling with laughter.
While at first Jimmy’s jaw dropped in surprise at Amanda’s cheeky wisecrack, he then responded in good humour.
‘It’s from a donor. One of One Direction looks terrible now,’ he said.

The 8 Out of 10 Cats host has previously spoken out about his hair transplant, light-heartedly joking about the inspiration behind his look.
‘I went into the hair transplant clinic and said, “I want to look like an Armenian cab driver – the eyebrows and then the hair to start, like a beautiful, thick, hair. It’s a great look,”’ he told Gabby Logan on her Midpoint podcast, according to The Mirror.
In October 2020, he opened up about the cosmetic procedures he’s had, saying: ‘I’ve had a lot of work done. I got my teeth knocked out and put back in.
‘And then I had a hair transplant in the lockdown, which I didn’t particularly need, but what else are you going to do in lockdown?’
He previously explained that he had the procedure done because his ‘hair was socially distancing’ from his forehead.
I Can See Your Voice returns on Saturday at 9.10pm on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
