Judith Ripka

I noticed there was a new host for the Ripka vendor.  I know that Judith Ripka only had a 5 year contract with Xcel.  Does anyone think that Ripka's personal appearances on QVC are coming to an end.  Part of Ripka's deal was ownership of a great deal of of stock in Xcel plus a percentage of sales.

We can only hope.  I don't think she adds a thing to the presentations.  She just sits and looks haughty like the duchess of the manor.

I would think she would be embarrassed to present what is called "Ripka" these days.

I think JR is a gracious and lovely woman, I would love to live her lifestyle.

I know nothing about her or her lifestyle, but she comes off as phony, and she includes tacky faux diamonds on just about everything, which is a turnoff. I have never ordered her pieces.

That woman has been coming on for JR for a long time.  I think she started coming  on TV after JRs daughter-in-law stopped.

I think she'll be around.
