Not a 'Konnie-hater', but I noticed she's being rather unprofessional in regards to W

Wagner.
I was watching the X-Factor, and couldn't help noticing that not only was she constantly trying to stir trouble.
And she's extremely rude and biased towards Wagner. Always giving little digs and jibes, always asking people(guests and such) to elaborate when they criticise 'quality' in the show in attempt to get them to bad-mouth Wagner.
Like, she literally prompts people to speak ill of Wagner and mock him. It's very unprofessional. And it's not like the guy offends anyone. Whenever I see him on the show, he always comes across humble, polite and takes all the abuse on the chin and responds with a smile.
He's never acted arrogant or entitled. And unlike some other less deserved contestants, if he went out even in the first week, he would have still very much appreciated being given a chance to be on the show.
The public is keeping this guy in. I don't see why people are angry and hurling abuse at him.

Thank you so much! So many people need to realise this.
That being said, there has been so much written about Wagner regarding his questionable behaviour within the XF house (alleged sex pest, harassment of Mary, bully, threatened 1D, continuing feud with Matt, now staying in a hotel etc.), and I believe that some of this bad feeling has stemmed from all the other contestants and indeed the judges belief that he should not be in the competition and that he is wholly responsible for other, 'more talented acts' leaving prematurely. I don't believe much of what I read in the papers (just the cartoons really
I think Konnie is using Wagner's notoriety to try and get a reaction out of people. His on and off screen persona seem so wildly different, I think she is testing the waters, trying to see if someone will crack. I agree it comes across as somewhat unprofessional, but she's probably being told to do this, just as everyone else who is employed by Cowell plays their role in his twisted live action RPG.
was going to post the same
She is useless as a presenter in the big grown up world, totally out of her depth. Very unprofessional as well
Agreed. With all the talented presenters around, how did she get the job? Her attitude to Wagner and the way she tried to draw other acts into the same behaviour was appalling imo.
I am glad she asks tricky questions becuase I can now see what a prat Matt is.
ETA Jason? D? was excellent with his response re this
Also, with the producers letting through angry members of the public they are aiming for TV Gold.
Think back a few weeks, the show was nothing but light and nice, and completely boring.
Best description of the show EVER ....
Kudos to you sir
i agree
The Xtra Factor is a light heart hearted, silly, fun show; you're taking it way to seriously if you're getting upset at her questioning of Wagner. Would you prefer if Konnie treated Wagner as if he's a legitimate singer and only asked him generic questions about "what he thought of his vocals", "what he'll do next week" and then move on to the next contestant? With all due respect, that sounds like a hell of a boring show. Wagner can more than handle a few questions when he's been berated on the main show.
Her asking people to elaborate their answers just makes for even better TV. Just letting people make mystic comments and then move on would make for boring TV. These two past Xtra Factor shows have been really good i thought, seems like Konnie and the staff at the show have stepped it up a gear.
:mad:I was going to post this.You are spot on .I was cringing watching Xtra factor..How she blatantly treats him with contempt and wants and goads others to slate him!EG she was desperately trying to get Matt to insult him but he didnt oblige whatever he may think.
And when he made the God is with me comment ...she even had to say The athieists arent
I was willing to give her a chance but she is totally awful:mad::eek:
so so true, really not enjoying the 2nd part of the show cos of her,,, she bang out of order with ott coments to other people as well...
How she manages to slate almost everyone she talks to.
It's just awkward.
To use the word "hate", is extremely unprofessional in my opinion and should not be used lightly. "Dislike" on the other hand.....
I'm sure she's a nice girl and everything, but she's dreadful on the Xtra Factor.
and those keeping wagner in need to realise that Simon is raking it in, it's not like he's affected by wagner , it's the other more talented acts that are being affected
