To have the opinion that she needs to “up her game” you must be eavesdropping into a majority of her phone calls in assessing her performance level. That is what the girls on the babe channels on tv are there for - to talk to over the phone. It can’t be that you think Georgia should be doing cartwheels on set instead of sitting or laying on her side whilst waiting to talk to and whilst chatting with callers?
I think what you are describing here as a job specification is applicable if she was one of those girls that work on phone chat lines in which case the only requirement is how good is she at talking on the phone. However there is more to being a girl on Xpanded TV than that. I would assume most callers watch the girl for a bit before deciding to make that call, so do you not think how a girl acts or presents herself on the screen has any effect on her volume of calls?
I will use Clara again as an example because she is clearly very popular and seems to know what she is doing. Do you realise that if Clara is even a little quiet at times on calls, she puts a lot of effort and energy into her performance to get things going, she does not just lie there looking bored and fed up. If she feels one of the many outfits that she wears on each show is not getting enough callers, she makes an outfit change immediately and tries a different one. This is the high bar of what a girl on Xpanded daytime should be doing, but others at least try to look engaging, smile, look like they are really getting into the phone calls when on the phone. These are clear signs that a girl is putting on a "good performance" as well as how good she is on the actual calls.
Jenna Nova is a welcome return to the studio shows, because as well as looking good, she actually acts in a very appealing way to watch, whether it is just smiling, wearing a nice variety of outfits, looking like she is having fun and definitely engaging with viewers. And by the way, I have spoken to her in the past on the phone and she is excellent in that respect too. So it is possible to do both - be good on calls and also good as a visual performance too. Which should be what all the girls on daytime especially should be striving towards.
Another thing to ponder. If according to you it is just about how good they are on the phone calls, then please explain why Clara has been voted Daytime Babe of the Year multiple times by this forum? Are you telling me that everyone that voted for her has had phone calls with her and that was the only contributing factor to their votes?
