Who is Lisa Robertson?
Having been crowned Miss Tenessee in 1989, Lisa decided to expand her areas of focus and explore the horizons of her abilities. She kickstarted her career in 1991 in electronic retail at Shop At Home. Lisa was also the spokesperson for the Cultured Pearl Association of America and Japan and the spokesperson for the “Drug-Free Tennessee.” After a short stint at VIA-TV for its retail Home Shopping channel, she decided to change paths. In 1994, she was hired to join QVC, leading to her groundbreaking success in retail shopping.
Lisa rose to prominence for bringing unprecedented viewers to the channel through her starking abilities. She skillfully excelled in selling and marketing products like fashion, cosmetics, apparel, jewelry, and accessories. For almost twenty years, Lisa highlighted the intricacies of products and brought in viewers and buyers for the shopping channel. Not just this, she has also made appearances on ‘Project Runway All Stars,’ and ‘RuPaul’s Drag Race.’
In 2014, the TV host quit QVC and embarked on another chapter of her life. So, why did Lisa Robertson leave QVC? While her meteoric success changed the shopping experience for countless viewers, it also accrued a lot of unwanted attention for her. From having to bear the intensity of stalkers to realizing that she could no longer offer anything new in the space, Lisa decided to walk away from the network. Moreover, things continued to build to a point where her safety was compromised.
In 2004, Peter Ferreira was charged with stalking the QVC personality and sentenced to 132 days in Chester County (Pa.) Prison and three years on probation. It was reported that the convict had been stalking Lisa for 12 years and had even followed her to her house. Not just this, she was even followed into a movie theatre where the accused could smell the popcorn she was eating.
While Peter Ferreira was just one of the persons charged and convicted for the issue, the former Miss Tennesse’s life had been rife with these issues following her rise on the network. The problems had culminated to the point where Lisa would lock herself in her house and check her alarms constantly. Naturally, after years of struggle and issues arising from the matter, she made the decision to begin a journey elsewhere.

Having exited the QVC television network, Lisa began doing other things, just as she intended. With a penchant for selling and an eye for detail, she has continued using her talents to expand her career further.

Besides, the former QVC host is a skilled cook and often posts her recipes and cooking videos online. Fans can also see Lisa conducting live streams on Facebook as she tries the latest recipes. On top of it, she helms a fashion line under her parent company. Acronymned G.I.L.I, Got it Love It features clothing items Lisa had first introduced on ‘The Lisa Robertson Show.’
When Lisa isn’t working, she likes to unwind and take things slowly. After years of hard work and consistent toil, she hopes to focus on her personal life as well.
