Facebook Questions for the QVC Hosts

makena · ‎10-29-2016

Some of them are really weird. And they ask so many personal questions. I know it probably comes with the territory, but I think I would go nuts if I had to read "what is that lipstick you were wearing, where did you buy that dress, who cuts your hair, what is that jewelry you had on and where can I buy it, how did you get your teeth so white ...."

And the men that say things like "hi pretty lady" and various comments. Ewwwww. It would just get to me after a while. No wonder some of them don't bother to answer.

Oh, I so agree with you. Even if I had the qualifications to be a host, I prefer my very average salary than a high paying job where I would have to over-expose myself and my personal life on any social media.

Yes that must feel really weird being asked that kind of thing all of the time......I used to think I wanted to be a host, but after watching over the years, I am not so sure......It is an interesting job for sure, and you do get the chance to meet some very interesting people.....

Perhaps it was somewhat different for the oldest hosts (but not that different), but I assume that in order to go into media/broadcasting one needs a strong sense of self and an appreciation of one's own worth, shall we say. You can't be a shy violet and get in front of a camera live every day. Most of them couldn't care less what others think unless it's praise. Those that do care excessively usually drop out.

It takes a narcissistic personality to want to be a host - the same for actors, politicians, etc. They crave attention.

Good point.

There are probably assistants who read and answer questions that are asked.

They will bring a question to the host's attention, but I very highly doubt that the hosts sit and read their own facebook page.

I could be wrong, but I believe that's a part of what the forum moderators do, at least sometimes or under certain circumstances.

I wouldn't be surprised if some hosts pore over their FB pages with a fine toothed comb.

on the other hand, what if they enjoy the "adoration" and the interest? they might feel like a celebrity. they have fans who follow them and appreciate how they look and what they wear. if they are indeed narcissistic like one poster mentioned, then all those questions are very welcome.

I have sent compliments to some of the hosts and have received pleasant responses from a few, especially Jane Treacy. I have no reason to believe they do not read any and respond if they wish.
