I don’t give a rat’s patooty about a “certain talk show host”. I’ve never cared for her & certainly don’t purchase a product just because she touts it. I JUST DON’T CARE! That goes for red carpet and celebrities, too! I purchase. Product and decide for myself whether or not I like it.

Its kind of insulting that they think people would just of course want to buy things because a celebrity does. 

But maybe some people are influenced.

@Fitzallen

 

You lost me when you said you are watching the presentation! lol

 

I only watch if I am interested in buying something. I’m not. 

 

And, no, I don’t care who likes something. My opinion is the only one hat matters when I am shopping.

I don't care about other celebrity endorsements but anything Oprah puts on her lists is saying the items are ususally great.  Her staff finds most of them, tests them , etc and then recommends them for her list.  It's kind of like the Good Housekeeping recommendations - not because it's Oprah but because these products have been researched, tested and tried by many and pronounced great products.

I tend to run the other way when a celebrity's name is attached to something.

No, I don't never did

However I can see using this as a selling tool when Oprah's show was on, but it has not been on in 8? years. 

so move on from the past and sell the product on its merits

I don’t care if a celebrity wears this brand or not. If I like it I buy it.

They're trying to appeal to the more "upscale shopper" who they believe follows celebrity fashion and influencer blogs/YouTube channels. As someone who enjoys fashion and has visited some influencer sites, this type of clothing really isn't shown or worn much. They'd do better appealing to regular middle class shoppers looking for comfort who are willing to spend those prices regardless of who else wears it.
