Queer Eye final season "Straight Guy Pageant" pics

As you may have heard, grande dame of gay reality television Queer Eye for the Straight Guy is returning tomorrow for its fifth and final onslaught on stray body hair and flannel. To celebrate the final season and the groundbreaking success of the show overall (because love it or hate it, it really did blow the lid off), Bravo has staged a Straight Guy Pageant that challenges the show's titular victims to compete for the crown ("Most Zhuzhed"? "Most Likely to Manscape"?).

Soap darling Susan Lucci guests as the mistress of ceremonies and of course all the queer eyes are as twinkly as ever. Is it just me or does the whole event kind of look like a lost gay episode of The Muppet Show?

Check out more pics after the jump, and check out the show tomorrow night for the full pageantry. And check back here next week for all-new interviews with Thom, Jai, and Carson!
