Has Netflix fired Jonathan Van Ness? Bizarre Eye,
It seems like a silly question. He’s one of the biggest breakout stars of the revival series.
However, after a shocking revelation detailing an alleged disturbing workplace culture Bizarre EyeMaybe it was assumed that JVN was over.
Now, the reality star is ready to address the issue.
The ‘Queer Eye’ revival had behind-the-scenes problems
The idea of Netflix Bizarre Eye conducted a worldwide casting search to choose its Fab 5. Some people who worked on the show have described it as being like making a “boy band.” The stars had great chemistry together – but it’s not the same as real-life friends.
As Rolling stonein-depth report of Bizarre Eye‘One of the writers who highlighted various issues said the show has had an educative and even curative effect on many people in America.
“My gay friends aren’t lining up to see it,” a production source told the report. “But [it’s] A show that a mother of a gay child – who is unsure about whether to accept him or not – will watch and be moved by.”
Jonathan Van Ness was undoubtedly the greatest Breakout Personality of this Fab 5. The hairstylist was already a familiar face for his star-studded gay of thrones Youtube series.
However, most of the Rolling stone The report details JVN’s behavior. Multiple sources close to the production describe him as extremely, unbearably “toxic.”
“Four Bizarre Eye Production sources and three sources who have worked with Van Ness said the reality star was horrible to work with,” the report states, “using words like ‘monster,’ ‘nightmare,’ and ‘abusive’ to describe him.”
The description of Jonathan Van Ness doesn’t match his public persona… not entirely, anyway
The report further states, “Three people described Van Ness as being emotionally ‘abusive’ and ‘prone to rage.”
“And,” Rolling stone It further states, “All seven sources said the star would lash out at crew members and people who worked closely with Van Ness.”
A source said: “[There’s] There’s a real sense of fear around them when they get angry. It’s almost like a cartoon where it comes out of them. It’s intense and scary.”
One source described JVN as “very warm, very charismatic, and has the ability to make you feel like they’re paying attention to you.”
The insider warned: “But at least once a day they will have to yell at someone. It could be something small, but there will always be someone to point it out and blame and make them the villain of the day.”
Another production source pointed out JVN’s alleged hypocrisy. “They’re really focused on having this warmth, love and care for other people. There’s a real difference between this and the way they treat those closest to them.”
The similarities write themselves
People on social media are comparing Jonathan Van Ness’ report to Ellen DeGeneres’ grim photos. Employees, other celebrities and members of the service industry shared their experiences with the once-popular comedian and opened people’s eyes.
This is not the case with JVN. There are no specific horror stories about him like there are with Ellen.
Jonathan Van Ness is arguably the biggest star Bizarre Eye (That’s probably why he wasn’t fired.) But still, he’s not the actual boss.
Jonathan Van Ness breaks his silence
Four months after this shocking report, Jonathan Van Ness criticized the article, saying it was “not based on reality.”
“I think a lot of people were looking for a reason to hate me or a reason to be like, ‘See, I always knew they were fake and this is proof,'” the reality star said on the “Table Manners with Jessie & Lenny Weir” podcast.
“My family was very supportive of my husband and my team, but I didn’t go on social media, or even look at my phone, for three weeks.”
Van Ness, 37, said he and his “Queer Eye” castmates first learned about the investigative profile in December 2023, and claimed much of the information collected was taken “out of context” to make them look “as bad as possible.”
“I think people forget that no matter how famous you are, you’re still a human being,” the TV personality said.
“That article came at a very delicate time — like, for my hair care company, for my whole career. It was a really difficult time.”
Should Jonathan Van Ness be fired from ‘Queer Eye’ after this?
Some are questioning whether he should be fired. Netflix did not immediately comment on the report in any official capacity at the time.
However, when the show’s ninth season was confirmed, JVN was listed as a returning host. So, he’s in it
Their activism has made lives better, but no one should be exempt from accountability for any act of public good.
Others want to hear your side of the story, and any possible rebuttals. Other Production Source.
None of these things came up during this long conversation Twitter The thread in which Bobby Berk announced his departure from the company Bizarre Eye,
“It is with a heavy heart that I announce that Season 8 will be my last season on Queer Eye,” he wrote on the social media platform. “This was not an easy decision, but it was a necessary one.”
Burke confirmed at the time: “Although my journey with Queer Eye is over, my journey with you is not over. You’ll be seeing more of me very soon.”
Burke later said Vanity Fair His contract is up and he has turned down Netflix’s new four-year offer.
But this scandalous report about Jonathan Van Ness’ alleged behind-the-scenes behavior puts it in a different light.
Of course the “boy band” casting style isn’t going to create a lifelong friend group. But it would be interesting to hear Burke explain if JVN was a reason for him leaving the show.
