Alexandra Burke suffers revealing wardrobe malfunction on live TV

It was distracting, to say the least

Over the past few weeks, Alexandra Burke has been making jaws drop with her spectacular dancing performances.

But the former X Factor winner, 29, left people gobsmacked for a very different reason when she appeared on It Takes Two last night.

Alex, who’s partnered with Spanish dancer Gorka Marquez on Strictly, was on the spin-off show to discuss the costume she’ll be wearing on this weekend’s programmes.

But while she was discussing the outfit with presenter Zoe Ball and Strictly stylist Vicky Gill, viewers were distracted by something else entirely.

Vicky pulled back a purple sheet to reveal that Alexandra will be wearing a daring ‘naked illusion’ dress when she and Gorka dance the rumba to Beyonce’s song Halo this weekend.

But it was the outfit she was wearing LAST NIGHT that really set tongues wagging.

The Londoner was rocking a very low-cut red vest, and it didn’t leave much at all to the imagination.

Even less so when Alex leant over to admire her Strictly get-up and looked like she was going to, erm, pop out.

Zoe Ball clearly noticed Alex’s almost-exposed charms, as she made a cheeky reference to them.

Referring to the naked illusion dress, the blonde nodded towards the singer’s plunging top and said: “[Alex] needs a deep V… because she wears a deep V well.”

And Zoe wasn’t the only one who was focused on Alexandra’s buxom display.

One viewer fumed on Twitter: “Alexandra’s top? Seriously! Really not appropriate for 6:30pm!”

Another noted: “OMG, is Alexandra Burke going to fall out of that top!”

But not everyone was critical of the outfit, and one fan chipped in: “People get on my nerves going on about Alexandra Burke. I think Amanda Holden gets the medal for being half-undressed – I thought Alexandra looked lovely.”

Alex has found herself having to deny rumours that she’s fallen out with Gemma Atkinson over reports that the former Emmerdale star has become very close to Gorka behind the scenes.

Well, SOMETHING came very close to falling out last night…
