AMANDA Holden's forgotten role in EastEnders has been used as ammunition against Sharon Osbourne in their bitter feud.
Britain's Got Talent judge Amanda, 53, stunned fans as she let loose on Sharon, 71, for bad-mouthing her boss Simon Cowell, 64, with Louis Walsh, 71, on Celebrity Big Brother last month.
Raging Sharon soon hit back, saying, "You’ll never be in my league," after the radio host branded her "pathetic".
But amidst the drama, one fan took to X - formerly Twitter - to back Amanda's corner.
They wrote, "Yeah but Amanda Holden had a scene in EastEnders so...call it even?" referring to a 90s episode of the soap in which the actress made a brief cameo.

It's not the first time her show appearance has come to light, though, as the Heart Breakfast Show presenter spoke about it on-air a couple of years ago.
Discussing the gig with her co-hosts Jamie Theakston and Ashley Roberts, Amanda said she rubbed shoulders with the likes of Ian Beale while manning a stall in Walford.
The TV personality said: "When I left drama school, EastEnders was one of the first jobs I got. I had to look after someone's stall for half an hour which was like four episodes or something."
Jamie replied: "I didn't know you were in EastEnders. There's pictures though?"
She continued: "I was opposite Adam Woodyatt [Ian Beale], your ex-flatmate. That's not true [laughs]."
Amanda then spoke about what she did on the show, which included messing around with a lot of fruit.
She said: "Ian Beale, I looked after a jewellery stall and he had his fruit and veg, there was a lot of messing around with rude fruit, that's all I'm going to say.
"I had a lot of fun, it was a nice show to do."
Amanda went on to appear in TV shows like Wild at Heart, Kiss Me Kate and Mad About Alice.

She is now one of the judges on Britain's Got Talent - the only original one across the 14 seasons alongside Simon.
The music mogul yesterday backed Amanda in her bitter fallout with Sharon.
He sent a message of support after the women had a huge online war of words over him and money — which saw Sharon ranting at “classless” Amanda over a magazine interview in which she called Ozzy's wife “nasty and awful”.
A source told The Sun on Sunday: “It’s one of the first rules of celebrity; you never cross Sharon Osbourne — but Amanda stands by her comments.
“Her phone was inundated with messages of support from loads of well-known names, all sympathising hugely.”
Simon sent a message via text from his fiancee Lauren Silverman.
The insider said: “Simon doesn’t have a phone so she did it on behalf of them both.
“For her part, Sharon is at a stage of her career where she really doesn’t give a s***.”
A spokesman for Amanda said: “Amanda is aware of Sharon’s incredible career but, just like her, Amanda will always defend those close to her.”
The source added Amanda still managed to enjoy the sun today as she spent the weekend with her husband and two daughters at their £8million London home.
They said: “It will be business as usual as she returns to her Heart Breakfast radio show tomorrow, and will reunite with Simon at Tuesday’s BGT press launch in London.”
It all kicked off when Amanda told the Daily Mail: "I hated seeing certain people in a reality show dissing Simon - he's the person who's given them all the chances, given them a lot of money and a lifestyle they probably wouldn't have had.
"It's bitter and pathetic. It was like Cinderella with her two sisters in the background - just stabby, stabby, stabby."
Soon after, Sharon tagged Amanda directly on X as she admitted her words were a retaliation to Amanda's slur.
She wrote: "A couple of your statements regarding myself are factually incorrect.
"The statement 'I hated seeing certain people in a reality show dissing Simon – he’s the person who’s given them all the chances, given them a lot of money and lifestyle they probably wouldn’t have had.'
"The truth is, you don’t know me, Amanda. You know nothing about my history in the music industry, my achievements, the artists I have worked with, the shows that I’ve produced, and my global celebrity.
"Unlike you, the brand of Sharon Osbourne is known worldwide.
"There are many countries that I could work in if I choose to however, I don’t have the ambition or time to do so, and unlike you, I don’t work in radio or pantomime.
Talking of her glam life back home, which she said she usually keeps under wraps, Sharon continued: "Our worlds are totally different. I have been blessed with an amazing lifestyle throughout my entire life.
"Before you were born, I was living in a mansion in Beverly Hills and continue to do so today and continue to have my country estate in England as well.
"But there is something you should know. I never discuss money, lifestyle, or positions of power.
"I find it to be classless and crude. However, you’ve now forced my hand to divulge these things to you and I honestly don’t want to seem like I’m bragging, but the truth is my money and success were not due to doing a couple of Simon Cowell talent shows.
"Don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed doing them at the time as they were great fun. Yes, Simon paid me very well. Probably more than what you’re receiving today, but all of that my darling went on a few handbags."
