Keep an open mind, folks. Everyone's been complaining that QVC is getting repetitive lately, so this may be a welcome diversion. Smile

That's a good point. I don't have anything against Miss Piggy, of course. I just found that statement from the VP rather bizarre.

So, is it a movie that they're promoting?

Re: This Muppet connection to QVC

So is Qvc corporate implying that Q's customers are pigs?

This statement - oy!

“Miss Piggy is a brilliant businesswoman with a provocative personality and an impeccable sense of style,” Doug Rose, QVC senior vice president of marketing and programming, said in a canned statement. “We’re honored to work with someone of her stature. Miss Piggy uniquely understands the aspirations of the modern American woman, and to have the opportunity to bring her fierce and fearless fashion sense to her millions of adoring fans is a thrill for all of us here at QVC.”

I just find it all a waste of time. Not cute, not funny. Is corporate smoking the Mary Jane?

Re: This Muppet connection to QVC

The Q sure is putting a lot of effort into promoting this movie. Nothing against the Muppets but I would think they would expend their efforts elsewhere if they were trying to attract new customers. So are Miss Piggy and Kermit going to be co-hosts. I really can't picture Lisa working with them. We'll just have to wait and see. Not expecting much myself.

Re: This Muppet connection to QVC

Miss Piggy made her exuberant announcement to QVC Program Host Lisa Robertson and to her millions of fans, who have the opportunity to purchase a version of her design through the retailer.

"Naturally, moi has been chosen as this year's mega-star attraction at QVC's red carpet event! And as if having me there wasn't enough, moi has also been chosen to design the 2014 'Red Carpet Style' special-edition tote bag for this gala event," proclaimed Miss Piggy, adding: "Rest assured, both moi and the Haute Tote will be tote-ally fabulous!"
