Aside from a lot of sweat, New Orleans puns and soon-to-be identified locals in need of "makebetters," it's not entirely clear what the seventh season of "Queer Eye" will look like.
One thing we do know? The season hits Netflix on May 12.

After a stop in Texas for season six, the Emmy Award-winning series "Queer Eye" made its way to New Orleans in yet another effort to bestow style and fashion wisdom upon those most in need. The location choice was announced in April 2022 to much local excitement, along with a casting call for makeover nominations.
The show's stars — Jonathan Van Ness, Karamo Brown, Antoni Porowski, Tan France and Bobby Berk — announced their official arrival in the Big Easy in June with a photo of the group tossing Mardi Gras beads from an iron-framed French Quarter balcony.
The participant selections are still a mystery to the masses.
More than a decade after Bravo's original "Queer Eye" ended, Netflix rebooted the reality show in 2018. With a new cast of style specialists and the original show's creator, David Collins, on as an executive producer, Netflix's Fab Five have been providing hair, clothing and lifestyle advice to strangers ever since.
The show's quirky comedy and social commentary earned it an Emmy in 2018 and 2019, and an enormous following worldwide, illustrated by the 2 million people following the "Queer Eye" Instagram page.
