Loose Women’s Denise Welch stormed out of the NTAs after Phil and Holly won This Morning gong
DENISE Welch stormed out of the National Television Awards last night and went home after Loose Women lost out to This Morning.
The TV star told her Twitter followers she was fed up of pretending to be a gracious loser year in year out after missing out on the Best Live Magazine Show gong.
She wrote: "I’m the car on the way home. Sick of doing the losers face and pretending to not care we didn’t win!! #ntas."
Supportive followers shared her disappointment, with one writing: "so upset this morning when I put my computer on and discovered LW hadn't won.....I'd had a good feeling about it as well."
Another posted: "Gets boring. Same thing every year. Should be a rule, if you win one year, you can’t be up for an award the following year."
While others accused Denise of being a sore loser, with one sharing: "Ouch sour grapes."
Denise wasn't the only star frustrated by the results of this year's ceremony.
Good Morning Britain's Piers Morgan was scathing in his assessment of the night after boycotting the event.
He branded the NTAs a FIX and calls for the awards to be scrapped.
The presenter also blasted David Walliams' "train wreck" performance as host.
Despite the awards celebrating 25 years on ITV, Piers says it's time to pull it off air after he boycotted the event.
He claimed: "The problem is the NTAs are done by online votes so people just fiddle them, of course they do. Most of the big winners come from the same agency."
Piers added: "The NTAs should be scrapped. They've had their day.
"There's no excitement, no jeopardy, nothing surprising - same old, same old.
"Imagine the Oscars, if the same people won every year... If Leonardo Di Caprio won Best Actor for 20 years...
"That would be the end of the Oscars. People don't tune in to watch the same people win every year.
"With the NTAs the same people have to win every year and it's boring."
Taking aim at host David Walliams Piers spouted: "I don't like him, but more importantly I just don't think he's funny."

Watching the show from the comfort of his own home after refusing to attend the ceremony, Piers wasted no time in criticising his rival's hosting skills.
When a follower asked why he hated Wallimas so much, Piers replied: "Nothing personal - he's just a massive d***head."
