Author: Sony Music Entertainment / Jonathan Van Ness February 10, 2025 Duration: 33:23
JVN tackles the age old question: do blondes have more fun? On this episode of Pretty Curious, Jonathan Van Ness and producer Chris McClure spill the tea on JVN’s latest glow-up: going blonde. They chat about the chaotic history of Snapchat filters, the art of cheering on your friends (without the jealousy), and what it really means to embrace change. And for all the curly-haired cuties out there—Jonathan answers a listener question about reviving stubborn top-layer curls. Plus! BTS from Queer Eye’s visit to The View and the Fab 5’s visit to the Empire State Building.
