Who gave him permission to be so gorgeous?!!

 

[OhDearFords]

Oh I love him! And all the rest of the five. Anthony in particular

 

[Milehammer]

The only way I can describe him is sunshine. I completely adore him and wish he was my best friend

 

[JNRS90]

His ice skating and gymnastics is brilliant! Can’t be easy when you’re a big tall bloke either, he must have worked so hard. I find it quite inspiring and if I win the lottery I’ll be engaging my own coaches!

I’m so glad I saw this, I’ve got a dreary afternoon of cleaning ahead but I’m going to get his audiobook to ease the pain.
I love Bobby Berk but he seems to get very little attention compared to the other four - I suspect he’s quite happy with that, though.

Love Bobby. Unsung hero of the show. Antoni gets so much air time and press, but he’s essentially a failed actor. Bobby did a podcast with Bryony Gordon. Worth a listen. Really interesting about his story.

I absolutely love JVN, he's an absolute Ray of sunshine! His book is brilliant and I love his honesty/positivity

 

[Dongabooboo]

Another JVN fan here, I love how unapologetically open he is, such a positive force. Has anyone been following his ice skating journey? So lovely

 

[Razzmatazz]

I love him.

He's so open about his gender and sexuality but not in a pushy or preachy way.
I love that he "came out" about his HIV status.
I loved watching him progress in his gymnastics and ice skating.

Did anyone here go to his tour? I didn't but I've heard it was rather meh....

I can completely believe the accusations in this article too.

I don't know about anyone else here but I watched and loved the original series and really didn't think this would be anywhere near as good, but the new fab5 are absolutely brilliant. I love them all and love their shows. They have the same level of rapport with each other as the original 5. They're doing a fantastic job!

Me, too - used to be called Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, I loved that show but I think I love this one even more

 

[Smallpotato]

If you love JVN and Game of Thrones, check out his YouTube series called Gay of Thrones. He is so hilarious!

 

[Sarah honeysuckle]

I want them all to be my friends. They’re such amazing people!

JVN has the loveliest soul. Are they/him and Anthony an item still???

I will listen to Bobby! Thank you.
I like JVN’s podcast a lot.
Antoni is utterly lovely to look at, though, and he plays the sweet straightforward character very well (I’m sure he’s very different in real life).
They do all seem genuinely kind and interested in other people, I’m not sure you can fake it so convincingly, and they appear to like each other too, hopefully they won’t all start falling out.

This made me sad as I definitely had a soft spot for JVN - but I don't think I'm surprised at the allegations either and I definitely believe them. Someone on Reddit said they were a big fan of his until they saw him live but annotingly didn't elaborate on what happened during the show to change their mind

 

[TrineRaaby]

Doesn’t everyone want him to be their bestie? I love him,

Yeah, I saw the same comment and was hoping someone here would elaborate! I wonder if it was it a whole show of him plugging his book, and then attempting to cartwheel, because I would feel ripped off

Yesss! I cant remember the name of the lady who mentors him but their videos together are beautiful

 

[Bora Bora Local]

To be fair I was sucked in for a bit as well!
