His warmth and wit radiates from every pore of his body. He is simply a beautiful human being.

He is best known as the heart and soul and breakout star of QUEER EYE, one of the most watched shows on Netflix - Season 2 has just aired in the UK and US and a third and fourth season are already planned. The Fab Five' s exploits in each episode are totally 'water cooler' moments. Jonathan's podcast, GETTING CURIOUS, has had more than 2 million downloads since the start of 2018.

His hilarious and moving account of his childhood growing up in Quincy, Illinois, hanging out with the pool ladies - those fabulous matriarchs of Quincy Country Club, overcoming bullying and eventually becoming his high school's first male cheerleader. He also recounts in raw, honest detail the turbulent years that followed the loss of his beloved step-father to cancer and then finding humour to light his way out of darkness. And, of course, his tops tips and best stories about grooming!
