Paula Deen DUMPED By QVC After Her Teary-Eyed Today Interview! Find Out WHY!
Jun 27th 2013, 23:20

Like a heap of butter tossed into a hot frying pan, Paula Deen's business partnerships are dissolving quicker than she can imagine.

QVC is the latest company to terminate its professional relationship with the Southern chef, and we can't say we're too surprised.

Maintaining a relationship with a flailing celeb who admits (under oath) to using the N-word and then digs herself into deeper and more awkward holes with every passing "apology" must be tricky, to say the least.

Today CEO Mike George broke the seemingly inevitable news.

In a statement, he said:

"We have talked with Paula and her team extensively over the last several days, and together we have considered what is best for our customers, for Paula, and for QVC. For now, we have decided to take a pause. Paula won't be appearing on any upcoming broadcasts and we will phase out her product assortment on our online sales channels over the next few months. We all think it's important, at this moment, for Paula to concentrate on responding to the allegations against her and on her path forward."

QVC held out longer than Walmart and Target, but with Paula's history of racial bigotry now a matter of public record the writing was on the wall.

Paula responded to the company's statement:

"As you know, I have some important things to work on right now, both personally and professionally. And so we've agreed that it's best for me to step back from QVC and focus on setting things right."

Ugh.

It's an ugly situation all around, but it sounds like this break is probably for the best.

Caca de limpieza de la bañera es una de esas cosas que cuando me inscribí para ser madre, nunca consideró que tendría que hacer. Caca de limpieza de la bañera no es un trabajo para los débiles de corazón o el estómago lleno. La primera vez que tuve que limpiar la caca de la bañera pensé También quiero limpiar mi propio vómito salir de la bañera. Después de la pesca de unos momentos de niños y caca fuera del agua, me di cuenta de que una directamente correlacionada con la otra. (Los músculos se relajan en agua caliente) Así que me puse listo. Si su niño hace caca o pis (o cualquier otra función corporal que encuentro fascinante mientras estaba desnudo en el agua) en la bañera primero toma al niño y lo puso a él / ella en el baño. Pueden o no pueden terminar el trabajo, pero al menos tienen un lugar para sentarse mientras limpia. Lo más importante es asegurarse de que encontrar la caca antes de hacerlo. Entonces usted tiene que pescarlo. Sí, ya sé que es asqueroso, pero quédate conmigo.
