Queer Eye star and comedian Jonathon Van Ness has announced a June 11th show at Waterfront Hall in Belfast.

The performance is apart of his "Fun and Slutty" tour, which will take them to Dublin and across the UK.

Van Ness is an Emmy-nominated television personality, New York Times bestselling author, hairstylist and podcaster. In addition to his work on Emmy award-winning Queer Eye, he starred in the award-nominated web series Gay of Thrones where he used his comedic edge to recap HBO's Game of Thrones. 

His podcast, Getting Curious with Jonathan Van Ness,  is his real passion project. Rated one of the Top Podcasts of 2018 by Time Magazine, Van Ness uses the platform to explore his personal curiosities. Recent episodes include 'Why are we so Obsessed with Dogs?' and 'What's the Steamy History of Valentines Day?'

Van Ness is also eager to use his platform as a voice for change and acceptance. As prominent supporter of the LGBTQ+ community, he has worked with both Planned Parenthood and The Trevor Project on campaigns to combat bullying and diminish the stigma that coincides with talking about sexual health.

In 2020, he won a GLAAD Media Award for his appearance on the The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, where he discussed living with HIV and the steps he took to combat stigmatisation.

Tickets for his Belfast show go on sale Friday at 10am via Ticketmaster.ie or Ulsterhall.co.uk
