Models now talking on-air

FireFrost4520 — Fri, 28 Mar 2025 20:49:07 GMT

Watching Explore Your Style show with Vanessa now on QVC.

Are they now allowing the models to speak on-air? They've just had Blair speak and another model.

If the models are members of a labor union, they would have to be paid EXTRA for a speaking role...

That's been going onf or a while now. It doesn't bother me, I like hearing what they have to say, after all they are wearing it.

I hear them talk also on Beauty shows as well..I like it. I like hearing a different point of view on things...

@FireFrost4520. They have done this for years on selected shows with certain models. Vanessa has had this show for quite some time but it was on late on Thursday nights.

Yes, it has been going on for a while. I don't hate it, but I don't love it either. It's not like they are going to give their honest opinion. It's all part of sales. What are they going to say, "I hate this" ?

How do you all hear them? I don't watch a lot of QVC, mainly the beauty shows. Once in awhile the host or vendor will ask a model something about the item while it's being used by model, but no mic so can't hear what they're saying. I find that annoying.

I like that models are included in the discussion.

" allowed"? Are you serious?

Yes, it's been going on for a long time.

I think it's very nice to see their personality come through and not just pose. I never expect to get any purchasing information that will help me though. They can never say it's uncomfortable or they hurt my feet.

But it's nice all the same.

I like it! But I thought it was just for certain shows.

I know a lot of times I've been watching, a caller will compliment the models, and the host will say, "They're not miked up so they can't hear you." Then the host will tell the models what the caller said.

I enjoyed seeing Vanessa's former late night show with Jacqui and Blair. All three of them and the vendors presenting talked about the show and other things!

If they are with a mic ahead of time then they are prepared to speak, no mic no speak.

Way back in the day, probably a good 10 years ago, Amy Stran had a show called Inspired Style that came on at 1 a.m. my time.

The models joined in the conversation on that show, too. I remember Jacqui being quite bubbly.

HSN has been letting the models converse for a while now also.

I like the models being able to talk during the clothing and beauty shows. They seem delightful, and I like to hear it from them (since they're wearing the item)....their experience.

I watch both QVC and HSN and HSN has been doing this for quite a while. I think it began with Colleen Lopez talking with her models and asking about her designs. I guess QVC decided to try it too.

@FireFrost4520 so what

Sorry to say I find having the models speak out is bogus. Does anyone really think they will say something derogatory?

Re: Models now talking on-air

Faceplacegirl — Sat, 29 Mar 2025 04:31:44 GMT

Hi all, sorry I think it's unnecessary. What they say will be favorable towards products which after a while becomes untrustworthy. What they say means nothing to me and they say nothing that hasn't been said during presentation.

Just the host and rep please, or models demonstrating that's it 🤗

Colleen on HSN talks to the models all the time and asks them questions about what they are wearing. I think its nice. It doesn't bother me.
