Hostess

Slitslattly · ‎02-07-2025

I really like ally carr but she has a story for EVERYTHING with situations and it's annoying and even if it's true, I think she should bring that down some. Tara from the brand temptations, answers before a question is finished and those one word comments like "Love" are annoying because she does it all the time. She agrees with everything. I adore temptations but her " I'm with you girlfriend" seems like she's a want to be and it's so hard to here her that I don't watch her. I take a look at her products later after her show. Some of the host act like the food is the best thing ever in life before it seems as though they got to swallow it. I assume they have to do that but some are doing it too soon. With fragrances also, they act as if nothing is better than the one they have at the moment. When you have to pay to send something back, the host need to be more authentic to be believed

@Slitslattly. 8f anyone at QVC annoys you, they all have Facebook pages where you can tell them. They'll never see comments here.

@Slitslattly - I noticed you're new to the forums. I think you'll have more fun here if you discuss things you're interested in.

Criticizing so many hosts in one run-on post will probably not go well. I hope you find at least one you enjoy watching.

Ally isn't serving tea at a tea party. She's a shopping channel host. Male or female; they are all hosts. I think you missing the point of the hosts are on air. Shopping channels are retailers, they are stores and the hosts are sales professionals. Their job is the get viewers to buy stuff. They do bring their own personalities and phrases to the job. Those things work for some of us, not so much for others. I like Ally but there are other hosts that I never or rarely watch because they irritate me.

@Slitslattly Both men and women at Q are HOSTS. The words hostess has never been used.

Maybe not in your dictionary.

Just change the channel. You write a long detailed critique- why wouldn't you just not watch??

I get it. It's why I don't watch much Q anymore. I don't watch to listen to personal stories, useless chit chat, watch hosts fight for attention or act like children, and fail to give adequate information about products.

At the same time, they all use the same word over and over until someone comes up with another new word. Remember, producers are telling them what to say in their earphones. Vocabularies certainly could be improved.

I would hate to do the job of hosts. I would find it incredibly boring. Even more, I'd be irritated and embarrassed to behave like many do.

Leave OP alone. She's as free to post her opinion as you.

Hostess hasn't been used since both of us were much younger. I wouldn't dream of using it anymore since, to me, it's sexist.
