À propos de cet audio
The Emmy-nominated host of Netflix’s Queer Eye follows up his New York Times-bestselling memoir, Over The Top, with this collection of thought-provoking essays on grief and healing, cannabis reform, LGBTQIA+ rights, imposter syndrome, personal style, the HIV safety net, and of, course, how to make your hairdresser love you.
In his New York Times-bestselling memoir Over the Top, Jonathan van Ness showed readers how the incredibly difficult moments from his life (surviving sexual abuse and addiction, being diagnosed with HIV) have existed alongside great joy and positivity (landing a breakout role on Netflix’s Queer Eye, becoming an amateur figure skater and professional standup comedian, doting on his five cats).
If Jonathan learned anything from the painful life experiences, it’s that in order to thrive, he needed to push past the shame and fear of being his true self, which meant getting comfortable with being uncomfortable. In this candid and curious essay collection, he takes a thoughtful, in-depth look at today’s hot-button issues, viewed through the lens of his personal experience. From the evolution of his signature style to an investigative report on the queer history of his hometown, Jonathan reflects on his life and how he has learned to embrace change—doing the work to challenge internalized beliefs, finding compassion and confidence, and learning more about what makes us all so messy and gorgeous.
Balancing the dark and the light, the serious and the madcap, these essays allow us to examine our individual assumptions, expand our horizons, and give ourselves permission to be the flawed and fabulous humans we are.

Histoire4.5 out of 5 stars 105
An insightful, candid, and inspiring memoir from Karamo Brown - Queer Eye’s beloved culture expert - as he shares his story for the first time, exploring how the challenges in his own life have allowed him to forever transform the lives of those in need. When Karamo Brown first auditioned for the casting directors of Netflix’s Queer Eye, he knew he wouldn’t win the role of culture expert by discussing art and theater. Instead, he decided to redefine what “culture” could - and should - mean for the show. He took a risk and declared, “I am culture.”

Feeling your best is about far more than deciding what color to paint your accent wall or how to apply nightly moisturizer.

At a cultural moment when we are all craving people to admire, Queer Eye offers hope and acceptance. After you get to know the Fab Five, together they will guide you through five practical chapters that go beyond their designated areas of expertise.

Gadsby grew up as the youngest of five children in Tasmania, where homosexuality was illegal until 1997. After moving to mainland Australia and receiving a degree in art history, they found themselves adrift, working itinerant jobs and enduring years of isolation punctuated by homophobic and sexual violence. When Gadsby was twenty-seven, a friend encouraged them to enter a stand-up competition. They won, and so began their career in comedy.

Important Read but not for those with White Fragility.
JVN does an amazing job harnessing the affects of capitalism and deeply rootes racism in their book. As a BIPOC myself, I believe that it is the responsibility of euro heritage descendants to really look at themselves and understand their role in colonization. Its not about "not being proud of your heritage" but looking at how your heritage has caused harm on another races existence. If you're solely taking the stance of extremist then there is no hope for you because JVN does the work and sets the standard for what it takes to accept the responsibility of a colonizer in North American. JVN slays and continues to make waves in their generation.
Love JVN's work and their podcasts. This book is highly recommended and delves into all facets of what is wrong with the colonial experience in America.

A meaningful and thoughtful book with a sprinkle of humour.
Intelligent, thoughtful discussions about important issues. Jonathan uses humour to to help swallow some big issues and give perspectives the reader may not have considered before. Time spent listening to this book was well worth it!

Very American
I love JVN and read his last book and enjoyed very much but this time. It was more than an update. As it was a collection of essays teaching readers about how the American system was made and how it benefited their privileged family and self. Which for someone from another country kind of got tired of hearing. Although very important and it puts things into perspective since the United States of America is very much on blast.

Insightful, present and real.
This is a brilliant look into issues facing many people today. Funny and engaging while covering some heavy hitting topics. Including but not limited to, exploring the self, family, identity and cultural shifts. Delve into the history and complexity of our communities! This is a sparkling JVN work! I would gladly have kept listening for another 6 hours!

Colourful, Funny, inspiring and unforgettable
This was a beautiful story from a beautiful person.
Living your inner truth, being your authentic self, embarking on the lifelong journey of self recognition and discovery, understanding and celebrating you, your gender and sexual identities…… none of these things are easy, it takes courage, hope and conviction to take even the first faltering step. JVN tells their story in a colourful, humorous way revealing everything including the mistakes, the pain and ultimately the joy that he is today.
Gender is a social construct- how wonderful it would be if pronouns were not a thing and we could all just ‘be’ !
Xoxo
