Britain’s Got Talent judge, Amanda Holden is thought to have landed her first job on American TV.

A studio source told The Daily Mirror: “Network executives were blown way by Amanda’s cut-glass British accent and warm personality.”

The Early Show – has about 3.5 million viewers a day, and the thought of presenting such a serious show is thought to be causing Holden some anxiety.

The source said: “She has never presented any kind of hard news before so it is quite a challenge.

“She has a lot of live TV experience under her belt, and has presented before – but she is understandably nervous.”

A spokesman for the former actress confirmed the news: “It is true. Amanda is thrilled.”
