Actress Amanda Holden is being tipped to host Andrew Lloyd Webber's new talent show Superstar, according to the Sunday Mirror. The paper reports that the Britain's Got Talent judge has been personally approached by the impresario to front the ITV1 show, in which he will be searching for a new leading man or lady to star in his latest production of Jesus Christ Superstar. And if she takes the job, she will begin filming the show in the summer, after the latest series of Britain's Got Talent - due back on screens next Saturday - has finished. "Amanda is the perfect lady for the Jesus Christ Superstar role as she has first hand experience of what it is like to be on the West End stage from Shrek and Thoroughly Modern Millie," a source told the paper. "She has taken the job in principle and now contracts need to be worked out." Others who are taking part in the show include Jason Donovan and Mel C, who have been taking part in the callbacks stage of the show and mentoring prospective finalists. Auditions for the series have been taking place up and down the UK - with Lloyd Webber saying recently he would be happy to cast either a man or a woman in the role.
