Queer
Eye for the Straight Guy Here to Stay
8/4/06
US cable network Bravo has slammed reports they have cancelled hit
makeover show Queer Eye for the Straight Guy.
The show features five gay men Ted Allen, Kyan Douglas, Thom Filicia,
Carson Kressley and Jai Rodriguez, who make-over unstylish straight men
each week.
Earlier this week, website After Elton quoted culture expert Rodriguez
as saying, "We haven't been asked back for 2007... Maybe this is how
we are going out with a bang. Everyone (in the group) has big new
projects."
However, Bravo has released a statement to entertainment website TMZ,
saying, "Bravo's Emmy Award-winning Queer Eye has just wrapped its
production cycle. These all-new episodes of Queer Eye premiere every
Tuesday. A whole new season is slated for 2007. Queer Eye remains the core
of our Tuesday night strategy."
