Thom Filicia
As one of the Fab Five on the surprise hit reality series "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" (Bravo, 2002-07), interior designer Thom Filicia has become famous for something he has always wanted to do. On the show, Filicia is one of five gay men who try to "make better" a straight guy hopelessly mired in a slovenly lifestyle. Filicia handles the living environment, while the other four improve the straight guy's clothing, grooming and cultural habits. The show proved to be an instant success, and even achieved the status of cultural icon when a Photoshop-ed picture of former Iraq dictator Saddam Hussein being made over by the Fab Five made the rounds on the Internet.
