Jonathan Van Ness Had a ‘Horrific’ Hookup During Queer Eye Casting
On a new episode of Bravo's Watch What Happens Live, Andy Cohen asked Jonathan Van Ness the question we've all been thinking since we learned that the final Queer Eye audition involved gathering all the potential gurus at the same hotel: what was going on when the cameras weren't rolling?
"The idea of all these gay guys in a hotel together auditioning for Queer Eye -- they had to all be banging," Cohen insisted.
The grooming expert initially tried to play it coy, but eventually admitted that he had one rather disastrous hookup during the casting process.
"There was maybe one boy. The [Queer Eye] boys know. But they'll never tell you, it's very horrific... horrific in embarrassing terms," he confessed. "It culminated in the most embarrassing end to a first date you could ever." Cohen asked if erectile dysfunction or pooping were involved, and JVN cautioned that the reality was far worse than anyone could imagine.
"There was--and it's not me, it was the other person, honey. There was a Prince Albert that was ripped out, before anything happened," Van Ness explained, referring to a cock piercing. "The pants came out, and along with it..." Ouch.
JVN added that he now "lovingly" refers to the incident as "bloodgate" and that it was "very traumatic." To Cohen and the audience's groans, Van Ness said: "You asked for it." Imagine the horror of not only being rejected for Queer Eye, but having your Prince Albert ripped out by the guy who booked the job instead of you...a nightmare.
