Michelle Visage's Rule Breakers

Tan France: Being bold and taking risks

Duration: 34 minutes

First broadcast:

Available for over a year

The iconic Michelle Visage sits down for a one-to-one encounter with one of her favourite rule Breakers, Tan France.

Since 2018, he’s been the fashion expert for Netflix series Queer Eye and he was one of the first openly gay South Asian men on a major TV show. But, this was no easy feat for Tan, because he was simultaneously receiving discrimination. Despite this, he continued to persevere in his career and find light in the darkness.

Following his move to New York and then to Utah, he illustrated just how much breaking one rule can pay off.
