Never see hosts on other shopping channels do the "Mwa, Mwa" kissing sound constantly....so fake.

It is annoying. They just should welcome the vendors to the show and leave it at that. The air kissing nonsense has to go too. I don't watch any other shopping channels so I don't know if they all do that.

It's is awkward when one person is taller than the other. It's different with a romantic partner but with a vendor and host it is cringe worthy. Actually now that I think about it, it seems funny.

I agree. The kissing is silly. A quick greeting and introduction is all that is needed.

When Leah does it, I just cringe....it is this big wet sounding smooching sound that makes me want to hurl my Cheerios.

They have been doing the air kisses for years at hairdresser's I have gone to. In addition, in many boutiques where I buy clothing, the women hug each other as a greeting.

It is very common where I live and especially in Europe. Not pretentious in the least.

Just what makes you think this is a "Hollywood" thing?

It is very ridiculous to make such a huge point of ""air kissing"" on the air when greeting each other since you can be sure they greeted each other off stage sometime earlier on in the day before the on-air presentation began.

Funny you should mention this because in the last week or so, I've noticed hosts shaking hands for the first time in ages. It's so not so awkward.
