Amanda Holden faces backlash over 'offensive' Paul O'Grady tribute over 'woke' comment
The Britain's Got Talent judge said that the late entertainer "didn't have a woke bone in his body" on her Heart breakfast show. Paul's husband Andre broke the news on Wednesday that the beloved entertainer had passed away peacefully at the age of 67.
Fans of the late drag icon Lily Savage took issue with the statement as O'Grady spoke openly about his support for LGBTQ+ causes and anti-austerity work. Another added: "She either doesn’t know what woke means or doesn’t know who Paul O’Grady is and what he stood for."
