This doesn't necessarily apply to Jennifer, whom I do like, but it seems over the last year, everyone selling clothing, across the board but especially Cameron Silver, overuses the word ELEVATE. It's almost as if the powers that be come up with key words they tell people to use to sell things.  It borders on the ridiculous and turns me off the presentation entirely.

@sunset beach  Are you saying he's "obsessed"?  Others certainly are. 

I think some people have been watching too much QVC.

"Here's the thing. .." is regional, and reflects where Mary Beth grew up and the people she's still connected to.
I find "Here's the thing..." throughout the Great Lakes area, and LOL when I hear myself say it once in a while too.
'Obsessed' and 'elevate(d)', have joined the much overused 'deserve' as words used in selling that now make me cringe.
The only one I absolutely cannot tolerate is SK, who frequently creates new words to suit her needs or misuses existing words.

I have to turn LG off because that phrase drives me crazy.

I liked Jennifer a lot in her beginning. However, she has become somewhat phony to me. There's something about her, I don't care for.

Mary Beth is a classy host, but "here's the thing" DOES get on my nerves. EVERY single sentence. 

Won't EVER watch Lori G, I turn the channel as soon as I see her.

Mary Beth and "here's the thing" hahahhahaha  Every time she says that I get another Hershey's Kiss. 

Mouth is usually full.

'Literally....here's the thing'

Good thing I don't keep Hersheys around...I would be shopping for a bigger size in clothes.

I rarely watch Cameron, he, nor the Halston line, are just not my cup of tea.  When I've seen him on an AM/PM style, he elevates almost everything.  To be fair, I love to watch Isaac, but he really needs to lighten up on the constant use of  RIGHT.

May be a regional expression, but I would think professionals would not use them in their work.

With no script, we get much more of the hosts' true speech patterns. I have a higher tolerance for the repeated phrases than the run-on speed speech (where one word runs into the next with no break) and shrill delivery. I will not listen to that.

@x Hedge  I've heard others at QVC say it too.  Maybe it's catching on.
