Jai Rodriguez

Actor & Producer - Queer Eye for the Straight Guy

Renowned as the original “Culture Vulture” of the Fab Five in the groundbreaking series Queer Eye For The Straight Guy, for which he won his first Emmy, Jai’s influence has been indelibly woven into the fabric of American culture for well over two decades. While well known to New York Broadway audiences, Jai has carved a name for himself in entertainment for over two decades including several firsts. Jai starred in the first all gay cast in network history (Queer Eye), became the first reality star to become a series regular on a network scripted show (Malibu Country), helped launch and host the first coast-to-coast LGBTQ+ FM radio station (Channel Q), and starred in the first major motion picture featuring an all LGBTQ+ cast (Bros). Jai lends his voice and support to causes close to his heart, including AIDS Walk, Project Angel Food, and The Trevor Project.
