I just turned on the Judith Ripka show on the 2 channel.  Does anyone know why Judith doesn't look at the host in most shows?  She always looks at the camera when answering a host's question.  I always thought it has to do with camera shots and how we look from the side.  She does turn her head sometimes but most of the time she doesn't.

Maybe she thinks it is rude to turn away from the customers

I've always thought she was rather awkward on camara and yes, I've noticed that she doesn't look at the host often.  She needs to relax (she doesn't) and act naturally.... I don't think she can help it.

 The last couple of times I've seen her she always seems to be looking down.  Made me wonder if something is wrong with her eyes.

Oh golly, ladies.  She changed her hair color and lost weight.  Give her a break.  I did not think she looked ill.

Judith isn't a TV 'natural' and she's not an effusive woman, at least not on-air, but she's always seemed pleasant and respectful, if a bit reserved. She's clearly lost weight and lightened her hair. I noticed the host was allowing her to speak a lot and she, at times, subtly seemed to be searching for words. That was the only thing that made me wonder if there might be a potential health issue. Perhaps she just wasn't used to a host who actually let her carry the presentation...

About her jewelry... I loved the Q2 special, but just as I was about to order, I noted they jacked up the price... I backed out... It would be so nice if they would let these supposedly 'special' prices stand for more than a few hours... Not everyone lives and breathes QVC all day every day to know about these time-limited 'special' prices...
