Maybe we should "sic" the board moderators on the show hosts!! Certain posts have been deemed inappropriate for far less.

I really don't that kind of thing is necessary. I don't like how she ends her segments with the dancing either.
she is another one i change the channel on....i think her dancing is vulgar and does not belong on a family show...

No, if this happened in my workplace, you would get fired on the spot. You just can't talk like this in the workplace, not in today's world. This kind of behavior is part of what makes this person unlikeable to many. I don't think anyone can call this behavior professional.
It's TV ... not an office environment or workplace environment.

@circles family show? It's a shopping channel.

I saw it and it didn't surprise me at all. Several years ago, she actually called Isaac a "cheeky bugger." She said she picked it up in England and it didn't mean there what it means here. She loves using it.
After several years, I've just surmised she was raised in a different environment. She actually thinks those things are cute and funny. And frankly, I don't think she's educated enough to understand harassment. I say this b/c there's so many things she's just "unaware" of. She finds it all hilarious.

@circles I agree with you both. I do not buy anything from WIC because of the crude behavior of the vendor and models with her.

I worked in an industry dominated by men and had to put up with girlie calendars, sexist jokes, harassment, and other similar nonsense as our generation fought to make this illegal in the workplace so everyone had respect. No one should demand that another person display or wiggle their behind during a sales presentation or have comments made on their behind's perceived "hotness." In a place of business it does not matter if the people involved are OK with this exchange, it is unacceptable; it has nothing to do with others being prudish or the participants just "having fun" and everything to do with respect.
Several Q hosts and vendors need some retraining. On one of his initial shows the Halston rep was so gaga over Amy it was uncomfortable to watch. And I admired Liam for speaking up when Albany called him her Australian Hunk and said "no, please do not call me that. I am here to tell the viewers about a great shoe."

I agree. Albany's kissing Mally on her lips was BEYOND inappropriate. Rene is SO crass, and so is Basso.

There is only one way to make QVC take notice, and stop her crude, offensive behavior. I have made the choice to vote with my purchases. No matter what it is, or how much I want something, there are some hosts and vendors I refuse to purchase from. If enough people would do this, QVC would be forced to take notice. I am quite sure they keep track of sales for each host/vendor.
