As you all know (or should) season 3 of Queer Eye is now on Netflix and most of us couldn't be happier. Like most things though there is always someone who wants to ruin the fun. HuffPost writer, Todd Van Luling, wrote an article about how the makeovers set people up for lives they cannot afford. If you want to, you can read it here- but I'm here to prove him wrong.
Karamo Brown- Culture
GiphyKaramo's is the Culture expert of the Fab Five, therefore what he does for the heroes on the show costs absolutely nothing once they leave. Karamo teaches the heroes to be brave, strong, bold, courageous, confident, beautiful, etc (I really could keep going). When the Fab Five is in town Karamo usually does something with the hero to try and prove to them that they can overcome whatever it is that is holding them back and yes that usually does cost money but it is paid for by the show and it is a life lesson that has a much deeper value. Karamo's knowledge, advice, and wisdom is something that everyone needs and it is definitely not setting anyone up for failure or a life they cannot afford- everyone deserves to take time for themselves and Karamo teaches each person that.
Bobby Berk- Home Design
GiphyBobby Berk is the Interior Designer of the Fab Five, he has a week to flip a hero's home into something they'll love and find peace and comfort in. Yes, a home is a lot of upkeep and redoing a home is expensive but again this is paid for by the show and most of the time Bobby and his team do all of the work to flip a house. When Bobby goes into a hero's home he does not try to get rid of everything they have accomplished and make something he wants, he tries to give them a sanctuary they can fall in love with and relax in. After the Fab Five has left all a hero has to do is maintain the home by keeping it clean and add any final touches that they want to add if they even want to add anything! Bobby Berk teaches the heroes how to take a space and make it their own fun, loving, creative environment.
Antoni Porowski- Food & Wine
GiphyAntoni is the food and wine expert of the Fab Five, he teaches the hero's how to prepare meals for themselves and their families. Most of the time Antoni takes a hero to a local grocery store/market or a restaurant so they can experience local food and something similar to what they are going to make at the end of the week. One of Antoni's biggest beliefs is that food brings people together- because it does! We all know that shopping fresh and organic is more expensive than just going to a regular grocery store to get food, but when the Fab Five is in town it is a special week and things are taken seriously; that is why Antoni makes sure to pamper the hero's with good food. Not only does Antoni teach them how to prepare meals, he helps them fall in love with cooking and eating a meal prepared at home. Everyone should know how to cook at least one or two things and that is all Antoni is trying to teach the heroes.
Jonathan Van Ness- Grooming
GiphyJonathan Van Ness is the grooming expert of the Fab Five and is in charge of all the makeovers- from hair to makeup to beard. When JVN meets a hero he immediately goes for the hair or beard. Jonathan's job isn't to change a person's look completely, but to show what they may have been hiding. He doesn't expect people to go to the salon every day/week/month for upkeep on their new haircut because they might not have been doing that before- he gives them something simple that they can maintain but it also brings out their best self. As far as their skincare routine, Jonathan makes sure to find products that work for the person he is working with and he does not get the most expensive thing; most of the products can be found in places like Target or WalMart (I know because I use them!).
Tan France- Fashion
Tan France is the fashion expert of the Fab Five, he is in charge of the clothes the heroes wear. Clothes are expensive, we all know this- even Tan knows this. When Tan is shopping with a hero he makes sure to find something that goes along with their style and body so that they don't feel like a stranger in the outfit they are wearing, but he almost always adds a French Tuck as a finishing touch. Tan makes sure to take the heroes shopping at places they can afford not places he wants them to shop at or places that are way out of budget. There have been episodes where Tan has taken a hero to Target or clothes from H&M have been brought in. Tan proves that it is all about how you style things, not about how expensive they are.
