With the recent loss of several hosts, is it possible that some models may not continue with the Q? Since there is only one live channel now, they probably don’t need as many models.

Re: Hosts gone...models, next??

@ncmom   Obviously they won't need as many models or production people behind the scenes.

 

I'm wondering if the moderators are gone.  Haven't seen or heard from them all day.

Models that appear on QVC are signed to independent modeling agencies, such as the one owned by former QVC model Joy Pinozzotto. QVC will likely be scheduling fewer hours with said agency's models.

Re: Hosts gone...models, next??

Since COVID-19 we've already seen about 1/3 the number of models on air.  Now with only one channel that number will decrease again.

 

Remember, the models are not QVC employees.  They work for their respective modeling agency and are contracted out for shows.  The less shows QVC has, the less calls for models.

I think some of the models are in a much better position than the departed hosts were, as The Q relies heavily on fashion, and the consumer needs to have a visual before deciding whether or not to purchase. There is a handful of models favored by the designers that worked consistently, modeling for each channel, and I don't see that changing in the foreseeable future-at least I hope not.🤞😊

Well @SandySparkles They won't be modeling on Q2, that's for sure.

I am not saying being a model is easy or anything but it might be cheaper for QVC to use their own employees. It isn't like they have to walk down a runway with cameras flashing. Most of the time they just stand and turn around once in a while.
