Once again QVC goes on location and the host is standing with a background of the area during the night. No activity. They could've just put a picture up and been in PA.

I just replied to another thread on this same topic...why does Jill have to be in Rio...to sell one handbag...couldn't that have been done at studio park...

Does anyone know if she's there working for NBC as well? Or did QVC pay for her to go there?  If so, I can't understand why.  I'm sure most QVC shoppers really don't care if they have someone selling products in Rio.  Seems like they are trying to get on a bandwagon that few people care about....

Jill went to Rio from NBC not QVC

Qvc must be paying for some of the trip if she is selling for them...doubt nbc would want to pay for that.
