How Karamo Brown protested his way to Real World

This week we are blown away by Karamo Brown (Queer Eye, Karamo Show), whose life consists of a series of plot twists almost too-incredible to believe. In this week's episode (out now on audio) Karamo opens up about living authentically at school while hiding himself at home, how a one-time encounter with his best friend turned into the greatest plot twist of his adult life, why life after MTV's The Real World was almost unbearable, and how he managed to land his role on Queer Eye even though he missed every round of casting but the last.

"The Real World" did have openly gay cast member(s) before Karamo's season in Philadephia during 2004 - 2005, such as Pedro Zamora who was on "The Real World: San Francisco" which aired in 1994. However, I believe Karamo was the first *black* openly gay cast member on the show -- and probably on any reality TV show ever. 👏🏽🌈
