QVC just celebrated 40 years on the air. The home shopping network premiered in 1986 and has survived many changes in television. Longtime hosts Mary DeAngelis and Kim Gravel have heard everything on the show. Yet, they were completely caught off guard by a viewer’s explicit confession while shopping at home. Keep reading for all the details on the NSFW moment.
QVC Caller Shares Explicit Confession
QVC has spotlighted many celebrities over the years to help sell the products. The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum Lisa Rinna was with the network for eight years. She recently wore a bold fashion choice that you definitely won’t see on QVC. But other hosts are popular with viewers despite their relative lack of fame.
Mary DeAngelis has been a QVC host since 2007, marking over 19 years with the network. Kim Gravel began selling her fashion and beauty brand, Belle by Kim Gravel, on QVC in 2016. They recently hosted the show together and expertly dealt with a moment that would send a newbie running off the stage.
During Friday’s episode, a caller offered a surprising review of a piece from Kim Gravel’s clothing line. “I wanted to tell you that I got that peasant blouse with the tassels, and I used to wear the tassels on my pasties. Do you know what pasties are? Okay. Well, I had tassels on my pasties,” a caller named Maryanne shared.
Hosts Caught Off-Guard
Mary DeAngelis and Kim Gravel reacted to the confession in real time. Kim Gravel momentarily froze before saving the moment at the last minute. “Maryanne, I just want to say this: You are my emotional support diva. You have just made my whole entire day,” she told her.
Mary DeAngelis quickly finished racking the clothing and made a beeline for the couch on set. “I’m having therapy with Maryanne right now,” she said. “Maryanne is my sister from another mister,” Kim Gravel joked.
The hosts begged Maryanne not to hang up, but the call cut off before they could get the rest of the story.
