@LuvmyLab I suppose any of the hosts, if watched often enough, do things to annoy people. I watched a lot of David selling scrapbook items many many years ago with Lisa Bearnson. It was so annoying when he would play peek-a-boo with the audience. I do admit, I scrapbooked a lot in those days so watched every scrapbook show I could.

 

@qualitygal I think it's more he's making sure the camera is picking up a more flattering shot of himself. I'm not knocking him, I think we would all do the same. But, I do find some hosts continually looking at themselves in the monitor more than other hosts. 


@cjm61 I used to do a lot of scrapbooking way back then too...around 2008 or so.  Instead of watching the Q's craft items for sale at the time I would go to AC Moore,  Michaels (they were right next door to one another) and JoAnns every week to see what new goodies were offered with my 40% off coupons.  I had so many supplies I could have opened my own shop!

 

At the time the Q had a crafting forum and I used to participate a lot there.  Many of us even exchanged cards....we had a birthday card exchange going for a while...and supplies.  Were you on the crafting board back then?  We had a lot of fun!

Why does David Venable never look straight into the camera but always looks down at what I’m assuming is the monitor? No other host I’ve watched ever does this.

Have you ever watched Courtney Khondabi?

@LuvmyLab   It may have something to do with the fact that David is 6'4" and the monitors with information he needs is maybe on the floor.


I never watch him but that makes sense

Saw him today and he was absolutely looking in the camera. And eating candy. Don't watch often but I've seen posts that say David doesn't eat the food. I've seen him eat

on several occasions.

@LuvmyLab I have mentioned this recently on the blogs, it is so annoying!!!!  How can he not realize he is doing it? 


 

Good grief. It's not the end of the world.

Even if a host looks into the camera, he/she can't see you and isn't talking directly to you.

When I see David doing this, I always think he is thinking to what is ahead next. A habit. 

David is so successful. He must be a multi millionaire. I wonder what he spends his money on. Or perhaps,he's one of thos rare creatures who enjoys accumulating more than spending.

Have noticed David starring so serious at foods or even himself. Not sure if it is  because  not eating as much as he did in the past nibble here a nibble there.Or his weight loss has become such an obsession he wants to make sure he is looking good on camera.

The one thing I will complain about is on Sunday when Rachel  Ellis (who I like watching on her own) starts the ITKWD running out to give David  a hug like a little girl think that looks so ridiculous.
