What makes Karamo excited about the future?
This is going to sound morbid, but it's not meant to be. I can't wait till you and I are ancestors.
Right? I'm going to be so good.
Three generations from now, they have no idea what's going to happen when we're on their side.
I'm going to be like Mushu in Mulan.
Bitch, we are going to be everything.
Seriously. I'm going to be mean, but I'm going to be gentle. We're gentle. Holding your hand. Hey, everyone, and welcome back to another episode of the Comment Section Show. Sorry, me, your fave. Everybody knows me. Who cares about me? On to the guests. Today, we have the iconic, the legendary, the fantastic, the amazing Karamo Brown.
I care deeply about you, so... I kind of wanted your intro. No, I'm joking. I love you.
I'm a fan. You've earned it. I am a huge fan. Well, the beginning of every episode, I always call it like I just jerk off my guests because I'm huge fans of all my guests. But I have been a fan of you for years. Thank you. Not in a weird way.
Appreciate it.
In a very admirable way.
I would take a weird way.
All right, fine. It was weird. There, we said it.
You can be weird with me. It'll be okay.
But I'm so honored to have you. I'm so glad you could come on the show and hang out with us.
We were talking about before. Someone was trying to keep us separate because I said yes immediately. And you were like, bitch, I tried to get you here a while ago.
Yeah, I was like.
It wasn't me. We're going to find out who it was.
Yeah, and your team's here.
Exactly. And we're going to fight. Someone's turning red over there, by the way.
yeah but you are a busy busy busy man so i'm not surprised she tries to keep a coin right okay have to you have to especially now yeah and the world needs you especially now thanks so i would love i know i'm very familiar with your background and your lore but for those that aren't i would love obviously most people know you from queer eye yes which is fantastic yeah um i would love to know just your journey into this business how you became to be The Karamo girl.
Oh, my gosh. I mean, well, she was just a poor little girl from, you know. No, seriously. I was just I grew up like super poor and like super like tough life. You know, like, you know, like my parents are not from this country. We had no money. I mean, like my father was abusive. It was like a lot of that. I told the world I was gay at 15. And then it just made my life chaotic then because like having family not from this country, they did not like it. I'm the only boy. And it was just like, oh my gosh, what's going on? But within that, I just kept believing that something had to be better. And that has always been the core crutch of my life is that something has to be better. I would tell myself two things every day, which is,
Something has to be better. And if this Yahoo can do it, then so can I. I've been saying that through those things forever. So to this day, when I see something I want, I'm like, well, if that Yahoo can do it, then I can. And so, you know, just all those things led me to be like, I want to be able to be there for myself, but I also want to be there for other people. And it led me to a career in social services, which then one day I wanted to be in TV. And my family said TV is not a real job. And I was like, I'll show you what a real job is.
Okay, well, I guess we'll see then. Okay, we'll see then. You'll see then.
You know what I mean? And then it led me to getting my first job with Oprah hosting a show.
Yeah.
Which, by the way, they fired me from. And the EP of that show told me that I was not a good host and I would never host ever again. She kept on the two other girls.
And how do you think they feel now? Pretty fucking silly, I bet.
I've actually seen them, and I'm like, thanks for the encouragement, girl.
You're actually the reason why it worked even harder.
Thank you for making me who I am, because I was like, oh, really? And then, you know, got Queer Eye, changed my category around, and then got a talk show, going in season three right now, and that's just where I'm at.
