Karamo Brown & Jussie Smollett Are Dating — The Toast Reacts
At 54:12 · chapter starts 52:20
The second couple story hits harder: Queer Eye cast member Karamo Brown has confirmed he is in a serious relationship with Jussie Smollett — convicted of staging a hate crime and widely regarded as one of Hollywood's most discredited figures. [1] — Jackie Oshry "Queer Eye's Karamo Brown confirmed he is deeply in love with Jussie Smollett — a convicted and disgraced actor — and believes he will be hi…" 52:20 In the interview clips the hosts read from, Karamo uses the language of deep romantic security ('I feel 100% safe, 100% secure, I can trust him with my heart') to describe a man Jackie flatly calls a 'known pathological liar.' [2] — Jackie Oshry "Karamo Brown spent recent months doing press about toxic queer relationships and making pointed accusations. Then he announced he is deeply…" 54:10 Jackie's two-part reaction: first, the announcement retroactively destroys all the goodwill Karamo earned from his recent book and press tour criticizing toxicity in queer relationships. Second — and this is the hosts' genuine take — it might actually be good news for the world, because two people of this particular character dating each other means they're not involving innocent parties. The hosts genuinely wish them a long, happy life together. Claudia caps it with: 'There's a lid for every pot — even crazy lying pots.'
Queer Eye's Karamo Brown confirmed he is deeply in love with Jussie Smollett — a convicted and disgraced actor — and believes he will be his husband. The hosts' verdict: two 'con men' neutralizing each other is actually a public service.
Karamo Brown spent recent months doing press about toxic queer relationships and making pointed accusations. Then he announced he is deeply in love with Jussie Smollett — a man the hosts describe as a 'known pathological liar.' Every credible stance Karamo took is now retroactively hilarious.
