Re: Lisa answers 2 big questions…..

Since we are all speculating on Lisa's next move, I am going to add my thoughts:

I think she is leaving December 12th so that she will have a Christmas totally free to do what she wants during the holidays.

She has worked hard, is, no doubt a wealthy woman in her own right. She built a beautiful home that she worked for and could possibly be paid for.

She has worked with many people through the years that I feel sure have offered her positions more than once. I heard Donald Trump tell her that if she ever wanted to leave QVC he would be more than happy to employ her. She has been working feverishly getting her body in shape and at her age of 48 that could be important to her new venture.

I am going to speculate and say that she and Leslie Blodgett have a business venture planned. Perhaps a new company. More than likely Lisa owned stock in Bare Essentials and when the business sold....well, as they say, the rich get richer.

At any rate, that's my thoughts. I wish Lisa well. She has worked hard for many years and perhaps she thinks it's now or never.

One thing is for sure, she looks great for 48 years old. She has big plans.

Re: Lisa answers 2 big questions…..

OMG- Lisa told you all what you wanted to hear so that the speculations would STOP! AND, how pathetic is it that you are STILL talking about it AND posting her info! She loves this attention though.....(and she'll get 2 more months out of it AND hen constant, "I miss you"..."QVC is not the same"..."come back"...etc., on her FB page once she leaves-SO predictable!!!).

This is her exact quote about the GILI line:

Lisa RobertsonHi Sylvia, I do not know officially but I strongly suspect they will continue the line. The clothes for the first 6 months are already designed. The handbags for next year are pretty much done. It has become quite successful so I cannot imagine them stopping it. It will just not be me designing it anymore.

THANK YOU LipstickDiva for posting on my behalf!! Smile

I cannot get over the audacity some of you have to believe I would post such info if not true!! Just because YOU do not know where to look on either of Lisa's FB pages to try and find the info I quoted, certainly does NOT mean someone is trying to pull the wool over your eyes. And sorry I am not on the boards all that often to post back in what YOU THINK should be an adequate amount of time.

Trailblazer, I apologize for being skeptical of your info. There has been a huge amount of incorrect information posted about Lisa, and that's why I wanted to see it for myself. You were 100% correct, I just wasn't looking in the right place.

Thank you Krissie22 for coming back to this thread and saying that. I really appreciate it. I certainly do not and would not post such info regarding topics of Lisa if it wasn't something I read from her and/or her assistant Katie. Both of Lisa's FB pages have a lot of traffic and posts can easily be overlooked. Not to mention the same questions tend to get asked a lot so Lisa or Katie may reply with a different wording hence some quotes could be slightly off but basically their replies all say the same thing with a misstep of a word here or there.

You're welcome. When I'm wrong I'll say it. I know now that the info you post is accurate, and I hope you can forgive me for rushing to judgement. I know I would feel the same if I were in your shoes. And thank you again for posting this originally. I would have, and obviously did, miss it, even though I try to keep up with the postings. Smile

Ladies it would be professionally unethical for Lisa to post any specific future career plans she may have in the works. To do something like that burns bridges and creates a terrible reputation "inside the industry" for the individual. No reasonably sane person -- unless they are embroiled in some bitter dispute and feeling angry toward their employer-- would do such a thing. One thing it's safe to say about Lisa is that she is none of the aforementioned, but she is an intelligent woman who parlayed a great opportunity at QVC into fame and fortune.

If I were Lisa, I would enjoy the privacy and live it up for a while -- outside of the public watch of the QVC audience -- before starting something new. Unless she truly loves it, I would not even stay in the Philadelphia area. Now, doing some speculation of my own I see living NYC in Lisa's future.

I don't understand how/why it would be unethical after she already gave her 2 week, oops, 2 month notice?? Normally, when people give a 2 week notice, it is obvious they got a new job and there is nothing unethical about announcing it.... Guess it might be different with a 2 month notice....or with a TV shopping channel job....I wouldn't know.....

It's unethical to stand in front of one employer's cameras or post on a social media site operated by that employer and talk about a new gig. This is a firm line of ethics for TV and radio personalities. You also add print journalists to the list as no one would write about their a job in the publication of the employer they are resigning from. Only the most extenuating of circumstances allow for variations of this.

OK, I get it....but I thought that's why she created her own personal FB page... Although, it's confusing because sometimes she posts QVC-related pictures on there..... I am amazed she has so much time to post on BOTH pages....I barely have time to post anything on my FB, and usually I don't even feel the need to.....guess public figures have their own priorities...

She needs to keep her fan base informed. There are those that want to keep up with her. She may not always be the one posting, she may have a personal assist helping. If her future plans include staying in the public eye or some kind of product merchandising, she will want to let people know about it so she starts out with a customer base, smart move on her part. Like her or not, she does have her fans. I wish her well.

That is such a selfish statement. Lisa does not need or have to keep her fan base informed of a darn thing.The idea is ridiculous ! She owes you NOTHING !!!! For over 20 years her life has been in a fishbowl, and all people have done is ridicule and bash her. What an insensitive, nosy, selfish, dumb remark.

I hope she continues to say absolutely nothing about herself or her next move and just walks out the door leaving everyone with their jaws dropping. You all deserve it with these stupid threads, speculations and investigations into every aspect of her private life.

The smartest, kindest and most caring thing we ALL should do is just stop ALL of these ridiculous threads, leave her alone, crawl back into our homes and mind our own business.

This entire thing has brought out some terrible things in people and Lisa entire life has been discussed to pieces.

I do not understand why Webbie has not closed down all of these threads for commenting.

Re: Lisa answers 2 big questions…..

Trailblazre I thank you as well. I had a fbook account created just to go find these quotes so as to answer . I DO ADMIT I was laughing at how many have written to Lisa or give her advice. I do not care for fbook but was amused at what i read.

Lisa may have been better to open that up for a 3 day period just to let her fans know the basics and then closed it. My son suggested as he does not know her but knows I watch Q but he said she possibly really enjoys those post ? Anyway I found a few photos and she looks just fine but in reading it was exausting to see the many questions and statments from so many. I admire her for her tenacity in accepting .

I admire you for re posting. I do not really care what the gal does but i DO WISH HER WELL AND MAY SHE FIND WHAT IT IS THAT SHE LOOKS FOR.
