Murial, what are you talking about, for us non-QVC viewers? Has he
been mute, or something? And what's his website? What is he saying?
Is there some QVC scandal we haven't heard about?

Well Jeff is one of our favorites here...and has even corresponded with some of
our regulars. For those of you interested in his website:
Thanks! I've missed him since my cable company dropped QVC, I bet AmEx card
talked them into it. LOL!
So what is the story? I read his brief teaser on his homepage, please give us
the dish if you know it!

Jeff married another QVC host Judy to much on-air fanfare. It was a case of
mutual beards. Perhaps a case of then QVC honcho Barry Diller trying to
maintain family values at QVC and the marketing of Jeff as a ladies' man. The
story was that a few days after their honeymoon Judy found Jeff in flagrante
delecto with a slut of the male variety. They broke up, she made his life at
QVC miserable and he left. He sold his sad story to the National Enquirer,
blaming her for the break-up and for forcing him to leave QVC and protesting
that he was not gay and not a drunk.
After leaving QVC, he went to Hollywood in search of the fame and fortune that
comes to home shopping hosts when they try to branch out. Alas, he is now
living in Indiana with his mom and still sounding very bitter years later.
The most telling quote on Jeff's website is the one from Merv Griffin: "He has
a quality that cannot be taught." Can you say *blow job*?

I always thought they were mutual merkins. The "Eva Gabor" model at that!

Please. Isn't that akin to marketing Liberace as a ladies' man?
>The

Would that be Merv-the-Perv or Barry (Return of the Mummy) Diller? Or simply a
garden-variety Diamonique(tm) sales rep?

Methinks the lady doth protest too much. ("Grrrr. I am NOT a drunken QUEEN!!!")

It's been reported that he stages one-on-one tupperware parties for his
long-suffering mother in her home. Jeffery's all dressed up in his tux,
attempting to giggle and charm his mommy into buying old tupperware. When she's
good and calls him "Jeffery", he's always careful to chirp to her: "Thank you
for the Jeffery!!" It has also been reported that during these exchanges, even
though they are in the same living room, Jeff will only talk to his mother on
the phone, dreaming of the glory days when lonely women from all over the U.S.
would call into him and think they were talking to handsome hetero movie star.
Sad.

"Behooving of your kind"? Did you happen to wander over here from the QVC
website's bulletin board? Your overwrought defense of the Jeff-ery reminds me
of some of the dimmer lights on THAT board.

Hey! I'd like to be the first to welcome THE JEFF-ERY'S mom to the newsgroup!
How are those Tupperware parties, babe?

P.S. Has anyone besides myself wondered if the Reagan quote prominently
featured on the Jeff-ery's website was pre-or-post Alzheimer's?

Yes "Murial", JeffERY is a dreamboat. And such a *nice* man. Here's the story
he sold to the National Enquirer back when he was booted out of QVC.
"Jeff Hewson, the baby-faced star of QVC, has quit the TV shopping network --
because he says his jealous ex-wife made his life a living hell. In a bombshell
that rocked the network, Hewson and QVC host Judy Crowell split up three months
after they wed in April 1992 -- but they both kept their jobs hosting separate
QVC segments.The 38 year old heartthrob claims that immediately after the split
Judy began spreading vicious rumors that he was gay and
had a serious drinking problem. A furious Hewson resigned from the network on
Friday, November 5, saying he was sick of his ex-wife's antics and QVC's
refusal to do anything about it."
"Astonishingly,Hewson, who says he was QVC's top seller, moving as much as $2.4
million worth of gold jewelry in one night, admits their troubles started as
far back as their honeymoon. We were on a yacht in the Mediterranean. Judy
started making scenes. She seemed to delight in humiliating me in public, he
said. When we got back home, Judy said, it's not working. I said, let's get
some therapy. We haven't given it a chance. But she didn't want to give it a
chance. She never even moved into my home. I feel she married me just to get
ahead. Judy's love for me was all an act. She went after me because I was a
star. She got me to fall in love with her and marry her, thinking the publicity
would make her a celebrity. She's a Dr. Jeckyll and Mr. Hyde and Mr. Hyde came
out after we married. Hewsen said he threatened to slap QVC bigwigs with a
lawsuit if they didn't stop Judy's harassment. But they did nothing. QVC made
matters worse when they offered him a ridiculous new 5 year contract. I would
have earned less than I did two years ago. When I looked at that, and thought
of my ex-wife's viciousness, I decided I'd had enough, he said."
"When contacted by the ENQUIRER, Judy Crowell had no comment. Hewson now hopes
to land a job hosting a TV game show and he's thrilled to finally be rid of his
ex-wife. The biggest favor Judy ever did for me was to walk out of my life, he
said."
She's put me through a horrendous year, but it's time to move on. My fans will
definitely see me again -- a lot happier and with an even more beautiful
woman." End of article.
By the way "Murial," don't you think there are more important things to *thank
god* for than a lowlife shit shilling home shopping host deciding to tell his
side of the story for the umpteenth time?
Reets
LOLSSSSS....seems to me Reets that you're the only one recounting this story!!!
Don't see his name on any of these posts!!! But sure see yours alot!!! And
it is amusing how each time you rewrite it with suttle changes to further prove
the type of person you are. Anyone who has such a fascination with him as you
do has got to have MAJOR problems!!!! You don't even know the guy!!!!
Besides, it makes no difference...I predicted your response almost word for
word and won 5 bucks!!!!! I think I'll go shopping!!!
Thanks Reets,
Murial
Hot damn...Reets predicted YOUR response and now I owe her $10 bucks...guess
she'll have more fun shopping than you!
Billie...no more bets on this babe Reets, Jeff's mom is just too predictable in
her posts.
>Besides, it makes no difference...I predicted your response almost word for

That five bucks, PLUS all of your QVC shopper-dollars should let you have quite
a spree, honey.
So tell us, which "Marie Osmond Doll" are YOU going to put on EZPay today?

Have fun at the Walmart. I hear they're having a special on Krappie Lee

When I told my boss at the time about it, he asked me what the punch line
was!
Mind you, of course gay men can certainly sexually harass women. Doesn't
have to be physical. And there are some gay men that talk to their female
friends in a way that would certainly be harassment if taken seriously. And
I've had women make some incredibly crude comments about men (the same sort
I do) in front of me that they would never say in front of a straight man.
It's usually understood, and all in good fun, plus it's either a parody of
straight men, or a putdown of them -- something both groups have been known
to enjoy from time to time.
It could have been something like that. Some people don't like sexual talk,
even in jest.
>Geesh, apparently QVC was a more exciting place than one could tell. Remember

Suzanne, you're kidding?! Dish baby, dish. What set her off? Was it the
nightmarish vision of a 40 waist stuffed into 32 hotpants? Or did he
accidently brush up against her -- it's a bitch getting oil spills out of silk.

Jerry Rice, the great 49ers receiver and all-time NFL touchdown leader,
denied doing anything wrong after police found him inside a Mountain
View massage parlor that is suspected of doing business as a brothel.
Rice said yesterday that he was there only for a massage. He was not
charged with any crime, but the circumstances were an abrupt departure
from the image of wholesomeness he has fashioned for himself on and off
the field in a brilliant 13-year career.
Rice, in a statement released by his agent, Jim Steiner, in St. Louis,
said, ``Clearly, I was in the wrong place, definitely at the wrong
time.''
But he had nothing in mind beyond a soothing massage, Rice said. (my editorial
comment: BwaaHaaHaa:)
``Massage therapy has been a part of my workout regimen for the majority
of my career,'' he said.
``Within minutes of my arrival to the spa, the Police Department entered
the building with a court order closing the business,'' Rice said.
``Needless to say, I was surprised by this police action.''
The three male patrons, including Rice, who was apparently found locked
in the bathroom, were not arrested, but their names were taken by
police.

I have NO idea other than a female QVC employee sued Richard Simmons for sexual
harrassment. I don't even know how it ended up. (And dh was doing working on
another case connected with QVC at the time and couldn't get any good gossip on
it.)
Does anyone know? I think it must be something like David M. posted: <Some
people don't like sexual talk, even in jest.>

I heard it was something like she was at a copier and he wanted her to make a
copy of her ta-tas or he came up behind her and grabbed her ta-tas. Hey, I was
surprised too but that's what I "heard" on one of the BB's at that time.

Dear Jeff's mom (or are you his sister?),
I just need to clear the air about Reetswh...first of all she is a intelligent,
well-educated (does ivy league education count?), well-loved (and I don't mean
the motherly kind), beautiful (a dead-ringer for a top actress), and
well-traveled (I'd kill for her last vacation), so just because she isn't
enamored with your Jeffie, and exercises her right to express her opinion
(First Amendment...you know about that don't you?)....I'd say that pretty well
establishes that she's pretty comfortable not only with her sexuality, but
herself. If Jeff wants to defend himself, he'll show himself, he doesn't need
some nitwit doing it for him. So get your butt out of here (which I'm sure
will happen anyways, since from what I understand AOL may be yanking your
service anyways)...and thanks for leaving without the rest of us having to beat
the crap out of you.

Well, we had temps in the 60's last week so my daffodils came up and
bloomed and all the little birdies were ready to set up housekeeping.
Then whammy!--at least a 20-degree drop all at once with light snow this
week, although there was no accumulation. So is anybody actually having
any honest-to-gosh spring weather you'd be willing to export to
Indiana? I'll pay the shipping fees.
