We’re already on the final week of the first round of auditions for Let It Shine – and sadly that means no more Amber Riley after tonight’s episode.
The former Glee actress and Dreamgirls stage show star has been a guest judge so far, joining Gary Barlow, Dannii Minogue and Martin Kemp to deliberate over auditionees, but she’ll be replaced by Lulu in the next round.
Viewers of the show are so sad to be waving goodbye to Amber.
Amber's last show on #letitshine ????

She’s been such a hit with fans of the show that people are wondering why she couldn’t have been a permanent fixture on the panel.

I absolutely adore Amber Riley. I hate that she's not going to be on for the whole series. #LetItShine

People think she makes the best calls.
Amber Riley is the voice of reason #LetItShine

And they’re feeling her pain over getting used to the British lingo.
Amber's right: "you alright?" causes Americans enormous confusion, I've seen it #letitshine
