Jennifer Lopez says she thought her BGT outfit was suitable after complaints

Jennifer Lopez has defended the outfit she wore on Tuesday night's episode of Britain's Got Talent.

Ofcom says it received around 100 complaints about her choice of clothing.

She said: "I wore the same outfit on the Billboard Awards in red and it didn't seem to cause any controversy there, so I felt pretty safe."

The star insists a bodysuit was the right choice for the show and is happy despite the complaints.

The Britain's Got Talent semi-final was shown between 7.30 and 9pm on Tuesday evening, before the watershed, although J.Lo's performance went out on the results show after 9.30pm.

She wore thigh-high boots and a fur bolero to perform her new single Live It Up. During the song she also slid down a pole onto the stage.

Judges on the show praised her performance, including Simon Cowell, who said: "Seriously, JLo. If anyone wants to know how you do it. That's how you do it. Seriously world class."

The 43-year-old also spoke about her outfits ahead of a performance at the British Summer Time Series in London's Hyde Park in July.

"Is that a family show as well?" she asked. "I'll wear whatever I'll feel like I guess."

She is also singing at the Chime For Change concert at London's Twickenham Stadium on 1 June.
