Delta Burke? I remember so very long ago she was on with Jill and started crying. I think it was because she was being taunted about her weight. She had to get up and go off camera for a spell till she got ahold of herself. Jill was so very sweet and kind to her when the tears started. It was a clothing line she had and very nice things in fact.

 


 

 

Here's the video @shaggygirl.

 

Delta Burke On QVC - Brief Appearance - 2000 - YouTube

I never knew there were so many YouTube videoes

of old QVC shows. Interesting viewing for fans!

 

 

 

 


@Pliqueajour  Thank you! That was sad. And I was surprised that was in 2000, thought it was more years ago than that. Jill's hair was looking so nice back then. If she were to watch that I wonder if it would make her consider going short again.

Delta Burke sold a great pair of jeans. I still have them.

When I saw the thread title, I immediately thought of the

One and Only

LISA ROBERTSON!

 

In many viewer's eyes, she *was* a "celebrity host".

The constant scrutiny and comments on the boards 

were......numerous!

 

I miss me some Lisa!

She was not a celeb.. I remember when she did the morning show w/Dan. She was not good and I do not think he liked working w/her.

When I think of celebs-hosts or vendors- I think of someone I had heard of before a Q appearance. I love Lee Sands but did not know who he was beore the Q. Same for Leslie Sansone. Now Joan Rivers is another story.

No one mentioned Stan Herman- he was on QVC in the very very  beginning ! Not a celebrity persay- but in the fashion industry he is.

I always was entertained by Richard Simmons. Not that I bought anything, but I always thought he was very sincere and extremely kind.

I'm guessing Joan Rivers, but she was a vendor not a host.
