In October and September 2024, Werner appeared on the program "Daily Flash" as a toy industry commentator. She promoted Halloween costumes from the company Jazwares, including Squishmallow, Marvel, and Star Wars Darth Vader costumes, and directed viewers to retailers such as Target, Amazon, and Walmart. In a separate segment, she highlighted educational toys and digital tools for children, including the Storypod audio speaker, a Moonlight story projector, a Coco Melon dancing toy, and the Nokia T10 Kids Edition tablet, emphasizing their role in combining learning with fun.
“Jazz wears the makers of the hottest costumes have wowed me by doing exactly what we had hoped they took our favorite toys and turned them into a line of costumes so now our squish mow that we love to squeeze and hold and snuggle with we can actually wear.”
“They even have Marvel for pets so be sure to look for that and I can't resist the Deadpool unicorn Rider inflatable costume. This is amazing as you walk down the street as Deadpool you're actually going to be riding on a unicorn.”
“This Star Wars Darth Vader primux costume is incredible, made with authentic, high-quality materials, detailed armor, light-up features, and even a custom storage case with Star Wars right there.”
“Jazzwares is here to help make Halloween memorable. Head to Target, Amazon, or Walmart to find all these awesome costumes.”
