Alesha Dixon has explained that she found her time as a judge on Britain’s Got Talent difficult as she “found it hard to say no” to contestants.
The Boy Does Nothing singer joined the reality talent competition after choosing to leave the panel of Strictly Come Dancing.
Dixon said: "I found it hard saying no sometimes, but I tried to be true to how I felt. If I thought there was someone who wasn't good enough, then... well, you don't want to upset people, but I know that feeling, being 18 and trying to get your break."
Despite the problem, Alesha has enjoyed a great 2012, and is thrilled she was in London during the Olympic Games.
The London Evening Standard further quote the singer as saying: "This year I've never felt so patriotic in my whole life. I've never had so many flags up! I was really proud to wave my flag. I cried every day in the Olympics.
"We are a country who likes to slag off and moan, but this year, everyone has gone, 'You know what, we are lucky and we should celebrate that.' British people by nature love a good moan, but everyone has taken on this new positive attitude. It's been a good year."
