New host singing!
She was on with Paul who was presenting a “religious themed” bracelet. She started singing a liturgy which was quite long. She sang the entire thing and nobody (like a producer) stopped her. I feel that has no place on a shopping channel; I was shocked! It was very pretty, however to me is just wrong. I’m a believer but that was offensive. Two things to never bring up – politics and religion.

Keep on singing. Spread the joy!

I wish to express kindess not hate like some. Again,those who claim to be tolerant are the most intolerant of others. Such hypocrites. I would welcome any religion would wanted to sing a little song to sell something. Doesn’t offend one bit. You both are can have each other. Keep complaining about everything. I choose happiness and forgiveness.
-
I agree with 100% if you have faith we’re are all in this together no matter what religion.

You ladies need to pray HSN stays in business. With all the complaining from shipping, models, hosts, pricing, shipping, etc. Sounds like alot of unhappy customers. Maybe finding your true worth in Jesus may find you peace and joy.
-
AMEN to that.
-
Aw Skip –
Nothing like self righteous opinionated people who try to shove their thinking and beliefs on others. -
@bewbee “I’m glad we agree” 😉

@skippie16 That is awfully UNCHRISTIAN of you, to ASSUME that everyone who watches shopping channels believe in your Jesus. Religious themed stuff needs to be fully inclusive or NONE AT ALL. Or have themed hours where people can choose to not tune in if they know their religion is not the theme of the day.
HOWEVER, Sarah’s singing even a snippet of the religious song was completely inappropriate. The ONLY place that IS appropriate is in the religious community where it is appreciated and part of the service. How would YOU feel if there was a Muslim host who did chanting or a Jewish host who started singing Hebrew prayer in the middle of a shopping presentation?????
IT WAS INAPPROPRIATE ON A SHOPPING NETWORK and SHOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED. Hopefully, it will never happen again.

It’s 100 inappropriate any time. This is a shopping channel. Religion has its own programming and it’s not on HSN or QVC. When they are selling religious themed jewelry – and it’s ALWAYS Christian-themed, which is incredibly biased, it should be very generic, with NO religious hymns, etc. If they do it for one, they must do it for ALL religions.
-
You mean SARAH TIMM? Yes, she sings when she can. I turn the TV off or the sound off when she is on.
-
I experienced a singing host, but it was on QVC with Kim Gravel. She was on last week with a plus sized African-American host. Sorry, I don’t know her name. Kim was talking about how she had to sing the national anthem, and she didn’t know the words. How embarrassing to admit that. She is very inappropriate. She was talking about how she P’d her pants. All of this while showing her line. I liked it much better when the TV hosts and the vendors were a little more serious. It was fun watching them trying to contain their composure when something funny happened. They didn’t goof around and act like teenagers.
-
I’m glad we agree
-
Excellent! Love being on the same page.
-
-
If anyone is offended, then the truth hurts
-
That lame argument can work both ways, Skip.
-
-
I missed it but singing a religious song would not offend me in the least especially while showing cheap jewelry that doesn’t look like gold in the least.
If they aren’t going to give the customers what they want maybe they need to sing some religious songs for guidance.
We need more God in our lives anyway so good for Sarah.-
I don’t need God in my life. I don’t believe in religions. If I wanted to hear hyms I would go to You Tube. Shopping channels should not have people singing religious songs, and in my opinion not sell any religious items. You can buy religious items online from other places. I haven’t watched HSN in years, tuned in today to see what new crafts they have. Pretty much the same.
-
I think we need to be careful saying we need more God in our lives. Not everyone believes in organized religion. And certainly a home shopping network is not the place. If someone said we need more Satan in our lives, which is a religion, I think certain people would have a lot to say. Let’s keep the religious speak to ourselves.

I would rather listen to Sarah sing than Anji Corley say the word “vibe” a thousand times over the course of an hour whilst showcasing shoes. It was mind numbing. Singing is a talent. Parroting is not.
-
I turn the tv off when she is on.
-
I didn’t see this unwarranted exhibitionism, but it is certainly stunningly inappropriate. Poor judgement to let that go on.
-
I don’t know what it is about that host, but I cannot watch her. She gets on my last nerve.
-
They said her name!! Sarah Timm! No one is trying to keep it a secret. I myself think she is strange! HSN needs to fire the individual that is responsible for the show hosts and models hired since their move to PA! Lost interest in HSN all together!
-
She tries to work in her singing very often in the presentations…. It’s fine but doesn’t add anything to the show. But as someone else said, the quality control is an all-time allow with people dancing, singing, cursing, etc. (not comparing cursing to singing! lol just the concept of not concentrating on the items)
