Alesha Dixon reportedly chose to snub this week's National Television Awards due to BBC resentment over her Strictly Come Dancing exit.
Dixon quit the ballroom contest earlier this month to join rival ITV show Britain's Got Talent, allegedly collecting triple her £100,000 Strictly fee from Simon Cowell. It was later claimed that bosses at the corporation were "unaware" of her plans to leave.
Both shows were nominated for 'Most Popular Talent Show' at Wednesday's (January 25) NTAs ceremony, with Strictly heavily tipped to collect the trophy - leaving Dixon in a quandary as to which side she would take.
"Strictly had a great year and was tipped to win so it would have been really awkward for her," a source told The Sun.
"The BBC aren't exactly happy with her move to BGT so she wouldn't have been welcome collecting the award."
Both programmes ultimately lost out to Cowell's other talent show The X Factor.
Dixon claimed at the launch of Britain's Got Talent this week that she had always planned to leave Strictly in 2012.
She also denied that her move had been motivated by money, saying: "If it was, I'd have done so many crazy things over the years."
