And, yes people buy their music, does it mean that their talent deserves millions and millions? No. As another poster said, doctors and nurses who save lives everyday deserve it more. But that's life, it's not always fair.

wrong....the 4 judges have experience singing, dancing, performing, entertaining millions of music fans, working alongside musicians, creating songs, music, videos etc etc

Willoughby has none of this knowledge or experience

heck tom used to present , sing solo, duets and do the monologues all on his own on his 1970s tv shows.....and they were terrific.....no wooden presenter in sight

a) I never said the 4 judges didn't do all of those things, but do I believe those things deserves millions in return? No.

But I'll also point out plenty popstars have done the things you listed and are worthless crap with no talent. So, even more, they don't deserve the money either.

b) The presenter doesn't need a knowledge of music, they stand there for a couple of minutes at a time giving out the phone numbers and introducing the acts. No music knowledge required.
