HSN Layoffs

Was Collen Lopez let go from HSN? Her name and picture are no longer listed on the Show Host page. I wonder if she's going to be a vendor for her clothing & jewelry lines.

“Please don’t be disappointed – HSN has been AMAZINGLY supportive of me and my request to have a lighter schedule,” Lopez posted. “This is the right choice for me at the right time. I’ve been an HSN Host for 28 years and I’m very grateful and lucky to be able to say I still love my job. But, I’m excited to not have to work every weekend and every Thursday night starting in March.”

I really felt that Dan and Carolyn were true and honest hosts. I will miss them. Carolyn and Gary had a fun show that not only sold denim and co, but also made people feel like they were family. Many of your other hosts are phony and just want to sell sell sell as if they are judged on what their numbers are, They confess to be religious but it seems like a phony facade. I want to believe they are ok with the layoff, but i will bet they can't tell the truth in order to receive their serverence. I know I do less, and will probably do even less going forward.

@buebue @Yes the hosts want to sell, sell, sell. That is their job. They are not there to do anything but sell.

AGREED 100% .I will greatly missed Carolyn Gracie. As a show hostess she had every talent to do this job : SELL but with a sence of caring and help towards the customer that few selling hosts have. From fashion, Denim & Co., Beauty, Home & Gardening to Pet's products !!! She was the best number 1. I bet none of the new ones can do as Carolyn Gracie. She will be missed & QVC will missed her (sell,sell,sell) too. Sooooo sad.

@SandiZ She continues to host her own jewelry and clothing line only. You can search for her in the program guide on HSN to see when she's on. I adore her and love her lines.

@buebue do you think Carolyn & Dan didn't want to sell, sell, sell? That was their job. Whether they were true and honest is relative. I don't think any salesperson is true and honest. Their job depends on them getting you to buy what they are selling.
