Tan France: Flight Attendant

We now know and love him for teaching us the "French Tuck" on Netflix's "Queer Eye" — but did you know that once upon a time, Tan France worked as a flight attendant? Working for the now-defunct Brittania Airways wasn't quite the mile-high experience he had hoped for, writing in his memoir "Naturally Tan" that the job was "very difficult" and "complicated." He also said he faced racist treatment from drunken passengers while working the position, which he took on in the years after the 9/11 attacks. Luckily for us, France got his head out of the clouds and graced us with his presence on television.
