You're saying Willoughby can't present a TV show and gets paid as a presenter, so yes it is comparable.

Willoughby isn't hired as a music professional, that's not her purpose.
Just as the narrator of The Apprentice most likely knows bugger all about business, but that's not his purpose.

They are there to relay voting/contestant information to the audience. The music schtick is for the judges.

she not only fails and has zero knowledge of anything, in which case her skill/talent is not specialised at all..whereas the talent of the coaches is specialised and proven ..they could get 10001 people to read off the dummy cards, so her fee is simply unjustifiable on every level....on top of that she cannot even do the basics of a presenters job which is to not just read off autocue but to interact, to converse and listen...instead she simply talks over people....she simply lacks any skill or talent and doesn't even have the basic social skills to interact with people....reggie is vastly better...yet is hidden away back stage and paid a tiny fraction....he actually has a sense of humour and some personality....holly is simply useless....they could get anyone better at a snip of her fat salary
