The BBC has come under fire for allowing Rita Ora to flaunt
her chest on the pre-watershed program The One Show.
The newest Voice UK judge was promoting the new series of
the BBC singing competition, but after appearing in a low-cut white blazer she
became the target of over 400 complaints.
'I do not want to see her boobs hanging out on a family
programme,' one viewer wrote on the BBC's Points of View message board.
The BBC issued an apology: 'If we had been consulted we
would have requested she wore something more suitable for 7pm.'
However not all viewers were that upset about her outfit.
One Twitter user wrote: 'As if 400 people complained about Rita Ora's cleavage
on the one show where is your life please (sic)'.
Ofcom also received 28 complaints from The One Show viewers,
but a spokesperson told the MailOnline that an investigation can be carried out
even with a low number of complaints.
'We’re assessing these complaints to see if there is merit
to take it further, but not every investigation is determined by the volume we
receive,' Ofcom said on Wednesday.
'That wasn't the 24-year-old singer's only daring outfit of
the day as she earlier appeared in a low-cut blue gown with a thigh-high split.
And her wardrobe certainly proved popular with her fellow
male judges, with both Ricky Wilson and will.i.am copping an eyeful during the
day.
