Q Talk

[stevieb]

Not a word about this on her FB page... at least not yet...

[Joy in Ohio]

I'm ""out of the loop."" For the last month I've been searching for Lisa Robertson's shows and see on this forum that she's moved on. Can someone tell me when she went and does anyone know the reason? She was one of QVC's best. Will listen to Tuesday am Good Morning America but am shell-shocked that she's left QVC. Why?

Chrystaltree: I'm a fan of Donald Trump. He's the only one who pushed for measures to bring jobs back to the USA and help American workers in the last election. When people learned he was going to speak at CPAC recently, there was a rush of people signing up to hear him. I appreciate the attention he brings to this vital issue. Further, he is a man of accomplishment and spirit.

Donald Trump is all about Donald Trump - he's about self promotion. If he was truly so concerned about bringing jobs back in the US, why was his wife's jewelry line 'imported'?? And his menswear line as well- all made in China.

I'd venture that most people who run for office are pretty much ego and pretty much about themselves...

Any of his 'runs for office' aren't about political aspirations. It's about promoting his next business venture. It works, too - I've watched every season of Celebrity Apprentice!

Probably true enough... All that free press...

Then again, I think most who run for office have ulterior motives... But then I'm cynical, what can I say...

What ever it is, I'm sure it will be amaaazing and probably something to do with Madison Avenue or old money.

Actually, LR was on GMA a year ago discussing her stalkers*... so it's anyone's guess what the topic will be this time.

*Source: The Internet.

Actually Lisa wasn't on GMA discussing her stalkers. They just ran the story and Lisa issued a press release that they read on air.

You are correct, KDenn, my mistake.

Given what they've tried to replace her with, I'd actually be more than happy to hear about the Hamptons, ladies who lunch, the club, old money and amazing...

It took 4 people to replace her and none of them have got it right.

Joy, her last day was 12/12/14. The official line is that she wanted to pursue other interests. We'll never know if it was anything else. She announced in mid-October, so it was probably mutual (if they fired her, she would have just been gone). She did make a comment on her FB page when someone asked, that she was burning the candles at both ends and something had to give (paraphrasing). She has a blog and wrote about the GILI line, stating when the decision was made that she was leaving, knowing that she was not going to be designing for GILI anymore was the hardest part. You can catch up with her on facebook. Just search for Lisa Robertson Public Figure.

I agree. LR had that certain something that cannot be duplicated. There are others like her who just stand out. I think Kathy Levine is one of those; Joan Rivers is another; I think Bradley Bayou is another and the list goes on. They have strong individual personalities with a personal style of communication that cannot be copied.
