Agnieszka Woźniak-Starak on the role of the host of “Got Talent”: “Very tiring”

“I have a talent” is one of the most popular talent shows among Poles. On the air for years TVN viewers can watch and cheer on extremely talented people who compete for a prize of PLN 300,000 and fame.

The first edition of Poland's “Got Talent” was broadcast in 2008. Over the years, the jury members included: Agnieszka Chylińska, Małgorzata Foremniak, Kuba Wojewódzki and Agustin Egurrolaand the presenters were Marcin Prokop and Szymon Hołownia. Some time ago, some of them ended their cooperation with the popular format. They act as jurors in the currently recorded editions of the talent show Julia Wieniawa and Marcin Prokop, who sat at the jury table next to Chylińska. They became the new hosts of the program Agnieszka Woźniak-Starak and Jan Pirowski.

Recently, Agnieszka Woźniak-Starak, host of the 15th edition of “Got Talent”, spoke about the recording of the program. She revealed what her work on the set was like from behind the scenes. It turns out that the presenter spent hundreds of hours standing during castings, which caused her great physical pain. “It's very tiring. (…) It's a difficult program,” the host admitted in an interview for Onet.

It turns out that Agnieszka Woźniak-Starak prefers to record episodes of the program that are broadcast live. In her opinion, this is a less tiring task than hundreds of hours spent on castings. “The live episodes that I was waiting for are a completely different story. Because a live program is a program that has its own dynamics, it starts and lasts an hour or an hour and a half, and then it's over. Castings are recorded from morning to evening “We are still recording various announcements. It all takes a long time and is demanding, which is why I have always said that I like live programs,” said the presenter.

Agnieszka Woźniak-Starak envied Marcin Prokop, who, after many years as the host of “Got Talent”, finally stepped behind the jury table and had the opportunity to watch the participants' performances while sitting down. It is certainly less tiring than the role of a presenter, but it still requires many hours of work.

“We always laughed with Marcin Prokop that he could sit behind the jury's table and it is definitely a better position from the perspective of human comfort,” admitted Agnieszka Woźniak-Starak. Perhaps he will soon follow in the footsteps of his colleague from the industry and also exchange his job as a presenter for a sitting job as a juror.
