One fifth of Queer Eye’s dream team, Tan France hosted Netflix’s (unjustly cancelled) Next in Fashion, and now has his own podcast: Tan France’s Queer Icons (available on Audible). “Before, I would have said [my icons were] the likes of RuPaul or Elton John,” he says. “However, after the podcast, I realised that the person that has impacted my life — all of our lives — is Dr Evelyn Hooker. She was the first person willing to do research to prove that we [gay men] are not insane… this woman changed the course of history for us.” Tan, 38, and his husband Rob live in Salt Lake City, Utah, and are expecting their first child.
