Diane Gilman…really??

Sorry Suzanne, you are a great host. May you have a blessed week.

Suzanne went at nauseam like she always does, but she doesn’t get away with it with Dianne. Personally, I want to hear from the designer, that would be DG. Suzanne can over take the presentation with Jay King, Heidi Daus and every one else she hosts.

DG is back, and looking fabulous in the light violet hair. 💜

Why have a vendor if the host won’t let her speak?

Diane is so full of herself and beyond rude. I won’t watch her anymore after she put down another host. Diane won’t let any hosts talk. It is all about her.

Yes, Diane does owe Suzanne an apology AND it should be done on air! Diane has changed since all her medical issues and her behavior might be due to medications. Still, that is no excuse for rudeness. Suzanne is a great host and I always enjoy her enthusiasm.

I too wanted to post last night regarding this. I found it awful how she was talking over top of Suzanne constantly. I could see if she did this one time, but she does it show after show, year after year. I’m all about the vendor explaining their product and of course we already know that they know their own product best, that’s a given. But common courtesy, she does not have. She does it to every host, and its painful to watch, and hurts your ears when they keep talking over each other. Many hosts have been quiet and try to give her the floor to explain as much as she’d like. Whether her product is good or not has nothing to do with her being rude. We are too old to not exercise common sense and common courtesy. I often wonder what is her assessment when she goes back and watches herself on the videos. And I love how the millions and millions of jeans are spoken for and no one has apologized to us yet about all the millions of stinky ones. We pay our hard earned money and receive brand new jeans in the mail that smell like gasoline. Nice!

I cannot believe all the negative comments about Diane, she HAD CANCER for goodness sake and is HAPPY to be alive. She is a passionate person about her clothes and she like things her way. I don’t think she was rude, I just think she wants things to be showcased a certain way. Let the woman speak all hour if she wants too because if her cancer returns then everyone will be SOOOOOO SAD later. She is a brash New Yorker for sure, but I don’t think she actually means to come across that way.

I hope nobody on this thread ever gets cancer, then you will see how it changes you. She is living in the now because GOD only knows what the future holds.

Damned if you do, damned if you don’t. People complain if the hosts talk too much, they complain if the vendor talks too much. Diane Gillman is a professional and wants to sell her items, she’s entitled to talk over the hosts. A lot has happened along the way with her health battles. Maybe her inventory hasn’t moved that much with her stand in presenter, who knows?

I am so glad that the hideous chemical smell was once again addressed. I saw the show and yes she is so over the top it is unreal! I did hear a call in about a month ago that addressed the smell in her clothing. She had to know it was coming at some time and she was short and direct with the caller and said to wash them and it would come out! Really? It was a very important question and she zipped by with a nothing response and went right into talking about her “genius” jean collection. I am concerned about those chemicals as it relates to your health! It almost made me sick thinking about the health relationship of wearing something that NO washing doesn’t remove. The last thing I ordered I didn’t even bring the box in the house and my garage had that awful smell until I got it mailed back. Scary! I don’t see how Suzanne can literally smell those clothes for those long presentations. I suppose living over Central Park as she refers to every 5 minutes is worth it no matter what. And yes I am very happy she is healthy and well. This is a different matter all together.

Diane Gilman has always been this way. For years. Talks nonstop, orders everyone around, goes on and on, embellishes, etc., and must be the only one talking every second. Why have a host? Just let her handle the show by herself, which is essentially what she does anyway, but with lots of “talking over” and competing raised voices. Maybe get her one of those automated clothing racks like drycleaners have so she can push a button to move the jeans or tops around while she’s talking. As for the DG2 stinky black jeans, I would avoid unless you like the smell of a big blast of eau de gasoline and bug spray.

Suzanne is one of my favorites hosts at HSN, I like her up-front personality as she does not try to be someone she is not. Maybe she worded something the wrong way, but it’s live TV! Can’t berate her for that! I watched a lot of the presentation but didnt notice or didnt see the parts described here with Diane being rude. Two strong personalities together, that’s all. I think some of the callers being over the top loud and gushing about the product can get on my nerves, but I turn the channel if it goes on too long. I own many of Diane’s jeans in various styles and colors but have not purchased recently so Ive never noticed this chemical odor.

Diane Gilman is so full of herself she talks so much she should be put with Shannon they would try to out smart eah other

Sorry – having cancer does NOT give you a free pass for being rude. It should honestly have taught her humility and kindness…she had a rep BEFORE she went out for treatment, and it is pretty obvious that it didn’t truly TEACH her about tact, kindness, compassion, humility, etc. She’s the same old Diane. Rude, loud, obnoxious, and downright mean, cruel and narcissistic.

Did any of you watch her a few visits ago when she was calling a model lazy and then yelled at the camera to come back to her? Let Shivon (sp) rep her smelly junk .

There are certain hosts that I turn sound to mute. They talk so much that the vendor can’t get a word in edgewise. Why bother with the vendor?
