The Kit Kat Dolls have been thrown off Britain's Got Talent following claims that three of them sell sex.

Lead singer Vanilla Lush and co-stars Alekssandra and Toni were all found to be working as prostitutes, according to the News of the World. Lush, working under the name Cindy, offered to sell sex to a reporter.

A show spokesman said: "We'd like to thank the News of the World for bringing this gross abuse of our trust to our attention.

"We have removed the group from the show. As a consequence of this incident the whole band has had to be punished. We feel let down as do their fellow bandmates."

Following the band's performance of The Pussycat Dolls' 'Don't Cha' judge Simon Cowell had told them: "Great act. Love the attitude!"
