The Filming Location of Queer Eye Season 8 Has Been Revealed
Restock your tissue boxes because the cult-classic Queer Eye is returning to Netflix on January 24. And this time, the Fab Five will return for the show’s eighth season in—drum roll—New Orleans.
The beloved five cohosts—Jonathan Van Ness, Bobby Berk, Karamo Brown, Antoni Porowski, and Tan France—will be helping six new heroes from the Big Easy, including a former nun, the world’s biggest Kiss fan, and even a football coach for the Louisiana School for the Deaf (we can’t). Season 7 was filmed in Louisiana, so this is an expected continuation of that location.
If all the Southern living love won’t be enough, this season is sure to be a special one as it will be interior designer Bobby Berk’s final show. “It’s with a heavy heart that I announce that season 8 will be my final season on Queer Eye,” he wrote on an Instagram post. “It’s not been an easy decision to be at peace with, but a necessary one. Although my journey with Queer Eye is over, my journey with you is not. You will be seeing more of me very soon.”
The streaming platform has not yet announced who will fill in for Bobby in Queer Eye season 9, which has already been given the green light to film in Las Vegas and is anticipated to stream by the end of the year.
In past seasons, the five cohosts have showcased the magic and culture of each location they’ve visited, including Georgia, Kansas, Pennsylvania, Texas, Louisiana once before, and a short spin-off season in Japan.
