Who gave Jonathan Van Ness permission to be the radiant human he is today? No one, honey.
The truth is, it hasn't always been gorgeous for this beacon of positivity and joy.
Before he stole our hearts as the grooming and self-care expert on Netflix's hit show Queer Eye, Jonathan was growing up in a small Midwestern town that didn't understand why he was so…over the top. From choreographed carpet figure skating routines to the unavoidable fact that he was Just. So. Gay., Jonathan was an easy target and endured years of judgement, ridicule and trauma—yet none of it crushed his uniquely effervescent spirit.
Over the Top uncovers the pain and passion it took to end up becoming the model of self-love and acceptance that Jonathan is today. In this revelatory, raw, and rambunctious memoir, Jonathan shares never-before-told secrets and reveals sides of himself that the public has never seen. JVN fans may think they know the man behind the stiletto heels, the crop tops, and the iconic sayings, but there's much more to him than meets the Queer Eye.
You'll laugh, you'll cry, and you'll come away knowing that no matter how broken or lost you may be, you're a Kelly Clarkson song, you're strong, and you've got this.

關於self-love,我覺得JVN說得非常好,他所展現齣來的正能量也是來自這樣的self-love吧。有許多讓他成長的經曆,更偏嚮是敏感小孩的self-inflicted pain - 藥物,濫交,等等... 所以這些成長過程,並沒有讓我有太多共鳴。但我還是很喜歡很喜歡JVN,喜歡他徹頭徹尾做自己的感覺,喜歡他IG上每天的coffee dance which radiates confidence。希望他以後不再在失落的時候走那些彎路。希望他可以一直這樣self love下去,收獲幸福。
評分揭開自己的傷疤給大傢看,為的是鼓勵更多的人,要愛自己愛自己愛自己。不僅僅是JVN,我從Fab5的大傢身上得到太多瞭。(一些題外話:今天睡醒想到的第一句話是,I love myself;每天會看著自己錶揚自己;小湯昨天說,心理谘詢師三要素裏有說過,你先得有完整的自我,纔能去共情。)
評分the more you love and accept yourself, the less you need other people’s approval.
評分Very honest / just glad that everything turned out great for him
評分jvn太不容易瞭 沉淪之後清醒的思考和自省與自我和解都是很難得的
