I saw the show.  Shawn stopped and asked the Halo brand rep if she was OK to finish the sell because she had to run off to change and prep for the next show.  The brand rep was happy to do it, she wasn't startled by it or seemed unprepared.

 

Remember, the brand reps have been doing solo shows on QVC 2 for 3 years now, they know exactly what to do all on their own.

 

I may not be a huge fan of Shawn's hosting, but at least get the details correct and give the right context. 

 

It was neither rude or a shock to the brand rep.  It was business on live TV.


Ahh thank you @Caaareful Shopper for telling the WHOLE story. It amazes me how people read things on here, don't know the facts and jump on board with something said that is not totally correct.

@Caaareful Shopper  I knew there was more to it. I guess the OP isn't a fan of Shawn's and wasn't paying attention.

It's so strange that the OP doesn't know that the Halo rep  isn't a Host.

I figured we did not have the complete story. I haven't seen a host run off without saying a word. I've always heard them say they had to run to the other set, and then excuse themselves. And I've only seen them do that with a co-host. If they have one or an experienced representative. The rep for Halo has been presenting for years. The Q would not want to risk "dead air."

Jane T. did it last night. She was hosting the Primetime Specials show on Q2 and the last item was Women With Control. She told Ashley she had to run off to the main Q set because she has to present the TSV at midnight. She left around 11:55. Ashley did just fine presenting the item. Nothing rude and I've seen many hosts do this. They all have explained why they had to leave the presentation early. A few weeks ago David explained he had to do the same thing and told the vendor he was leaving her to present alone.

Nancy Loon has to be rudest host. She conttalks over guests. Plus is usher phone constantly this totally uncalled for. Why isn’t anything ever done. QVC needs to start listening to these complaints or else they will lose more customers

"The excuses made for the host are quite amusing."

 

Host: "I have to go to get ready for midnight."

 

         "(Vendor) is in another place and I need to leave,"

 

         "My mic pack is "bad thing."

 

          "Time for my nap!"

I actually think it's the need for a smoke break.
