I love her. I don't even know why really... Maybe it's the fact she's the same age as me and I feel about 100 years old in comparison so she gives me hope! What's not to like? She's cheery and happy and seems nice to everyone. Nothing wrong with her :)

I don't like her but can't put my finger on it. Love Olly though.

They're probably definitely shagging each other.

She's very average as a presenter.

Her dress sense is phenomenally bad. Everything she wears is hideous and fits really badly!

Loved her on strictly, and I like her on X factor, I can imagine going down the pub with her.

I think people like the fact she has some fashion disasters and has had a few break ups / love life dramas. I think people like her because she seems "normal", relatable.

As a man, I don't get it either. Perhaps her preference for younger men or her time on Strictly?

There again, I don't watch the X Factor as I prefer real music.

Maybe because she looks normal and acts/dresses that way? I like her. She's far more real than most. It's cheryl fernandes garcini that gets my goat. Talentless.

Dermot O'Leary was wise to get out of the XFactor presenting. The writing is on the wall - the show is dreadful, Olly Murs and Flack are both awful and the lollipop on legs that is Cheryl Cole is even worse.

Let' s hope it is axed.

I'm sure she's a nice person, but she's the world's shittiest presenter. She can't walk and talk at the same time. I stopped watching X factor because she was so apalling.

She's totally meh
And she dated Harry styles despite being in her 30s when he was a teenager which I find fucking creepy

I think Fairylea is on to something with her first comment.

I do sometimes look at her in one of my all-too-frequent bitchy moments and think "Mutton", but actually I do respect that she dresses and acts however the fuck she likes.

She's not a great presenter and she's ok. I think it's because she's a breath of fresh air from the normal women presenters on TV. She looks more normal, she's not so polished and stick thin, she makes mistakes and has a bit of a laugh rather than pouting into the camera and looking all polished and perfect like the other women presenters. She is relatable.

I think Olly could do it better alone. Apart from his big mistake he is better.

Oh and the fact that she makes fashion mistakes and doesn't look good in anything and has curves makes her even more normal.

She won Strictly last year and she had a brief dalliance with Harry Hairstyles from 1D is the extent of my knowledge.

she has a great laugh, and is sexy. And personally I like her for dating Harry, a confident minxy woman but imo with a good heart!

she's not so polished You can say that again! I think she's a dreadful presenter. I've no idea how she started out, but if she was put up against others in a proper audition there's no way she'd get a presenting job.

why does she have to be "polished" shes real, shes normal.

I can't stand Ant and Dec. Couple of fools that are "fed" stupid jokes that are staged and really very unfunny. Would you call them "polished"?

She seems ok and works well with Olly.

Shes my girl crush. I think she's lovely. She was definitely better presenting xtra factor than x factor but that wasnt so structured.
I love the connection she has with Olly Smile
