Karamo Brown Talks His Role as The "Culture Expert" on "Queer Eye" Reboot
Karamo Brown stars as the ‘culture guy' of the Fab 5 in the Netflix reboot of the Bravo hit series, “Queer Eye for the Straight Guy." Brown sits down with Alyssa Julya Smith in Los Angeles to chat about the upcoming show, now just called, "Queer Eye," and how the reboot is pushing for acceptance, while the original pushed for tolerance.
Unlike the original NYC-based series, this reboot offers a physical and mental renovation to people in Atlanta, GA. Brown says the show isn't just focusing on a physical transformation, but a well-rounded one that allows for personal growth as well.
Brown also discusses what each of the men will bring to the table as the Fab Five: Tan France (Fashion), Jonathan Van Ness (Grooming), Bobby Berk (Interior Design), Karamo Brown (Culture), and Antoni Porowski (Food & Wine). "Queer Eye" will be available to stream worldwide on Netflix February 7.
