Crazy For Feet Forum

Just a theory, but in my opinion, it could be one of the problems: Since Rebecca is absent and Merve is no longer there, Diana is forced to become more and more of a frontwoman of Pearl. I suspect that she's now unfortunately trying to live up to this role and appear a bit more serious and be taken even more seriously. This means: She's making sure to do less shoeplay, which is, of course, totally crap. Dangling is okay with her because it's no big deal. But standing shoeplay on TV unfortunately sometimes has a somewhat dubious reputation. It's entirely possible that Diana is forcing herself to refrain from it.
And that was precisely the wonderful thing about Becky: No matter how hard she forced herself, it did happen to her at some point, because it's in her blood to play with her shoes.

Call me a glass half full guy. But I just keep watching with the hope that one day we will see the two Linas dip their feet in and out while standing or at least dangle. In the meantime, we have Diana who never disappoint us.

I am just waiting for Rebecca to return. I think the fun games that go on between Rebecca and Diana that lead to great shoe play/feet moments will never be fully replicated by the other ladies. But I do think that if Rebecca is hosting with Lina Jost on a regular basis and the the 2 guys are not there to interfere, Lina will start opening up a little more to the shoe play game. Plus I just really want to see Rebecca and her perfect nylon legs and feet back on the show!

Same... Sadly, I'm starting to lose hope in ever seeing her back on the shows.

I have seen the shy Lina play a bit, like a little dangle here and there. But the Lina that looks a bit like Rebbeca… not even a dangle

Dying indeed. Sucks bc the outfits are still fire! Makes it even more frustrating.

Lina had her first dangle, but Nan she used her hand quickly to put shoe back on. Maybe she’s slowly getting comfortable. It was during item 7 of the Top 10 show.

Well, what a day with so many standing shows today. And NOTHING happened. Just imagine what Rebecca would have done on a day like this...

But one problem is that it seems like the new Lina has been glued to her shoes. It HAS to be, because she's not budging an inch. So disappointing. And Diana? Believe it or not: Ever since she started feeling like the new frontwoman, she's changed her behavior and tried to appear more serious. So sad.
And that's the big difference between her and Rebecca. Becky has shoe-playing so deeply ingrained in her that she simply couldn't suppress it in the long run.

Anyway: let's hope for a better 2026. How we say in Germany: Einen guten Rutsch für Euch alle! ;-)

I have ZERO hope for the show. They are now all part of the Shoe Glue Club. Diana is now “corporate” and has no desire to entertain us. Yeah we get an occasional courtesy dangle but that is it. It’s now just same 5-6 dudes saying the same thing everyday “thank you for a wonderful show Diana, Lina and Monika”. I mean the HOBOT Show used to be must watch TV…We aren’t asking for it to be 21’-23’ all over again, but just an occasional dip would be nice. The show used to be exciting to watch, anticipation was awesome just to see what would happen. Now it’s no different than QVC or HSN. Oh well. Ladies and Pearl, if you read this, hopefully things can change a bit, but I can tell you’ve lost a lot of viewers

Someone asked me here once if the shoeplay is discouraged on Pearl TV. If it was, do you think it would be Diana doing the discouraging? Or would it come from another source?

I had thought it would be "optional" like "we have a subsection of our audience that likes this if you want to play along." But now I'm wondering if Diana being a little more business oriented could mean she might decide "hey I've seen this, I've done this and this is no longer okay."

To me, best case scenario, they hire a new girl who actually shoeplays naturally, and they don't say anything to her. And I won't keep banging this drum, but the comments man...maybe it's good to filter them out a little. Man...if only they could lock their comments.

That’s exactly what I mean by Diana has gone corporate. She’s upper management now and can’t be involved with that piddly entertainment. Although she still dangles on occasion. I don’t think we’ll see anything from the 2 Lina’s and there’s no room to hire another girl. Our only hope is Rebecca or Merve to come back. I get what you’re saying about the comments but hell we’ve got nothing to lose as nothing is happening anyway. But maybe I could tone it down a bit. Maybe kill Diana with kindness

When we see a standing segment like this without a single heelpop from Diana, that's when we know it is all over.

Yep. Same with Hobot show yesterday. I don’t think Pearl understands how many viewers they were getting and have now lost

Yeah! I missed them too. Probably it was because I had lost hope.

Man it is sad over there. There really is just 4 people saying the same stuff every day....nobody else in the chat. Lina and Lina cannot carry the show and it's dying a slow death. Sad thing is PEARL 100% knows how to fix it.
