Madonna impressionist Philip Grimmer is planning to sue Simon Cowell, after he claims he was portrayed as a transvestite on Britain’s Got Talent.

The 56 year old singer made it to the Britain’s Got Talent semi finals last Spring, after previously auditioning as Kylie in 2007.

After he performed Hung Up by Madonna, Simon Cowell tore Phi“Madonna at 95 would look better and dance better than you.”

Though he did add:

“Listen since Amanda and Piers put you through to this round, I am actually urging the British public to put you through to the finals so that these two can present you to the Royal family and they can have front row seats.”

Phillip complained about his treatment to The Sun, admitting that he decided to take legal action against the show after hearing that disgruntled Emma Amelia Pearl Czikai is trying to sue BGT for more than £2.5million.

He said: “Simon was so insulting. But it wasn’t just him. Ant and Dec said I loved dressing up as a woman as if I liked doing it all the time. I’m a female impersonator, that’s what I put on my application. It’s my niche, I’m not gay or a transvestite. Even one of the producers said, ‘Are you gay? You must be.’ My relatives think I’m a cross-dresser now, some sort of tranny. I’ve been married since 1977 and I have a daughter. I’m as straight as you can get.”

Philip is currently ‘waiting for a barrister’ to take the case.

He added: “They’re portraying me as something I’m not which is defamation against my character. It’s not who I am.”
