Amanda Holden strips naked for a racy painting for new Sky TV show as artist says ‘fun and relaxed’ presenter was ‘a natural’<\/h2>\n

Amanda Holden has revealed she stripped naked for a racy painting as she filmed new TV show, Sex: A Bonkers History.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The presenter, 52, is\u00a0exploring how attitudes towards sex and sexuality have evolved in the programme from Sky History, alongside historian Dan Jones.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Artist Francesca Currie said ‘fun and relaxed’ Amanda was ‘a natural’ model as she posed in the nude for the artwork.\u00a0<\/p>\n

A behind-the-scenes glimpse will be shown during an episode of the series, but the Britain’s Got Talent judge explained the portrait is for her ‘husband’s eyes only.’<\/p>\n

Francesca spent six weeks working on the painting which Amanda gifted her husband Chris Hughes.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Cheeky gift: Amanda Holden, 52, has revealed she stripped naked for a racy painting as she filmed new TV show, Sex: A Bonkers History<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Racy: Artist Francesca Currie said ‘fun and relaxed’ Amanda was ‘a natural’ model as she posed in the nude for the artwork<\/p>\n

‘It was just for Chris. He loved it!’ she exclaimed.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Francesca recalled: ‘Amanda was fun to work with. She\u2019s a natural model and she looked fantastic.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘To me, it was just another painting. I just see the person sat in front of me.’<\/p>\n

It comes after\u00a0Amanda\u00a0said she thinks that Britain is going backwards instead of forwards when it comes to its perception of sex.<\/p>\n

In a Q&A at a screening ahead of the show’s launch, Amanda said she felt that there was ‘more freedoms and less judgement’ back in the day.<\/p>\n

She said despite society thinking we have come a long way, people were still ‘frightened to speak’ about many things.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She explained: ‘Personally, I feel like even though we think we’re going forwards, I feel like we’re going backwards.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘I think when people say conversations are being started, they’re actually being stopped because I think lots of people are frightened to speak on every aspect of everything.’<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A behind-the-scenes glimpse will be shown during an episode of the series, but the Britain’s Got Talent judge explained the portrait is for her ‘husband’s eyes only’<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Talent: Francesca recalled: ‘Amanda was fun to work with. She\u2019s a natural model and she looked fantastic’<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Present: She\u00a0spent six weeks working on the painting which Amanda gifted her husband Chris Hughes<\/p>\n

Amanda went on: ‘There’s so much to celebrate now, so much. And yet when you look back and you see, obviously there’s all the politics, everything else in all the other eras that we haven’t covered in.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘But I think there were loads more freedoms and less judgement then, than there is now. This is just a wheel that just keeps on turning.<\/p>\n

‘I think that’s the biggest lesson that we’ve learnt from this is that we’re just on that same wheel and we’re just coming into the next bit, and then we’re coming into the next bit.<\/p>\n

‘So every time we think we’ve gone forward we are always going to step back, and that’s true of absolutely every era that we’ve covered.’<\/p>\n

Discussing the show, Amanda revealed that she had been so dedicated that she tried on a toga during one of the coldest months of the year.<\/p>\n

She recalled: ‘I really loved learning about the Spartans personally and the wafty outfits… in Crystal Palace.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

‘They told me it was going to be somewhere much more exotic. One of the main reasons I took the gig and they took me off to Crystal Palace!’<\/span><\/p>\n

She complained: ‘It was November I put that toga on! From ASOS!’<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Having her say: It comes after Amanda said she thinks that Britain is going backwards instead of forwards when it comes to its perception of sex<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Saucy: Dan and Amanda will explore how attitudes towards sex and sexuality have evolved from the origination of the first contraceptive in ancient Egypt to swinging in 70’s Britain<\/p>\n

Her co-host Dan told Televisual about the variety of topics covered in the show.<\/p>\n

He said: ‘Sex is the one thing we can be certain human beings have done throughout the whole of history.<\/p>\n

‘It\u2019s a fascinating way to take a romp through the millennia, from the Ancient Egyptians to swingers in the 1970s, and up to the wonders of the digital age we live in today.’\u00a0<\/p>\n

He even spoke highly of his co-host: ‘Amanda is a dream host \u2013 she\u2019s a great laugh’.<\/p>\n
