Katie Waissel

Following audio recordings of the BGT judge calling an elderly contender a “c***” and using improper behavior off-camera toward another female rival, Katie Waissel has come out against David Walliams.

On November 10, 2022, voice notes from a program recording from 2020 were published by The Guardian. In the recording, Walliams can be heard calling the elder a “c***” three times after allegedly making a joke about the BGT judge. He also commented on a different female contestant:

As word of the incident circulated, the former X-Factor judge tweeted that she intended to discuss the BGT judge’s comments during her November 14, 2022, hearing with the Select Committee on Digital, Culture, Media, and Sport. In addition, she ordered that Talkback Thames and Syco, the production company behind Britain’s Got Talent, launch an immediate investigation into the conduct that had been violated and suspend David Walliams.

She started to MailOnline that she will continue to advocate for the law’s revision until it was done, adding:

“I cannot and will not rest until the legislation is updated to reflect the correct shielding and protection for victims who are tragically masked by Hollywood,” said the mother who had endured sexual assault and harassment in the entertainment industry.

The questionable skits by David Walliams fuel the situation

According to Katie , who placed seventh on The X-seventh Factor’s season in 2020, she is adamant about putting an end to “the ongoing mistreatment and lack of care to vulnerable and naive contestants or competitors.”

The 36-year-old is a vocal supporter of better working conditions and reality television competitions. In addition to studying law, she founded the OWHL Foundation, which stands for “Overseeing the welfare, human rights, and liberty for everyone in the creative business.”

a few troublesome A sketch featuring David Walliams pulling down the pants of male audience members on stage has surfaced as he continues to get criticism on social media. Sharing the video, the former X-Factor judge expressed her sorrow and despair for the victims, many of whom were children.

Des Kay, a children’s entertainer played by David Walliams, challenges the men in the audience to a game of “hide the sausage.” After receiving a kiss on the lips, audience members have their pants pulled down, leaving them ashamed and scurrying to find somewhere to hide. The movie was a segment of a BBC documentary that followed Matt Lucas and David Walliams as they performed as Little Britain on stage while touring Australia.

David Walliams issued an apology to the people he made derogatory remarks about during breaks while filming Britain’s Got Talent in 2020 in a message to The Guardian after the disrespectful remarks surfaced. He continued:

Like most conversations with friends, these were private and were never intended for sharing. I do, however, apologize.

The apologies failed to calm the fury because netizens viewed them as hollow and feeble. When The Guardian contacted Simon Cowell and Syco Entertainment, the representative claimed that neither company was aware of the alleged exchange, adding:

Because Britain’s Got Talent is a family program, inappropriate language is not allowed.

The broadcast network for the program, ITV, released the following statement:

“We have spoken with the producers of Britain’s Got Talent, and we do not condone the language stated in these complaints.”

In 2012, David Walliams joined the panel of judges for the program. The other panelists include Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon, and Simon Cowell.
