Wendi Russo- Television Host with ShopHQ Channel
Nothing is scripted on Home Shopping!
I have worked as a Home Shopping Host for 6 years and I love how everyday is different because I am presenting different products with different guests and we are able to spontaneous and conversational during my shows. I specialize in fashion, jewelry and beauty but I present everything including computers, sheets, furniture, lighting, and outdoor accessories.
ShopHQ is the #3 Home Shopping Network in the country with over 82 million viewers across the United States.! My job is always fun and I am able to work with some very well known names in the industry like: Christian Audigier who began Ed Hardy Accessories and clothing, Gretchen Rossi of the Housewives of Orange County, Morgan Fairchild,Suzanne Somers, Supermodel Carol Alt as well as industry legends like Toni Brattin, Daniel Kiviat and Wayne Scott Lucas fashionwear.
Before becoming a ShopHQ host, I was a union actress and a model in New York City and Los Angeles where I appeared in many national print ads, commercials, Guest-starred on comedy TV shows and films. I have been the face of "Auditions" Catalog, Mercedes Benz, Radisson Hotels and have been featured on the cover of Minneapolis Magazine and Eden Prairie Magazine. I have used my acting talents as a voice over artist for Medica, ADP Payroll, University of Phoenix, multiple website navigation and e-learning modules as well as on ShopHQ promos.

With Gretchen Rossi from the Housewives of Orange County, Slade and VP Marv Segal
Gretchen brought her handbag line to ShopHQ and I was fortunate to have worked with her. Slade is a sweetheart and Gretchen and I recently co- hosted a fundraiser for Dressed for Success.
With Christian Audigier on the set
A marketing genius, Christian has made Ed Hardy an international name in fashion and accessories. With his own line he is expanding into the home shopping realm and had a fantastic first round of shows! I'm on again with him June 27th at 6pm eastern.
