Ted Allen served as the "Food and Wine Connoisseur," an expert on alcohol, beverages, food preparation and presentation, on Bravo's "Queer Eye."

Fifteen years later, Ted Allen is still sharing his expert knowledge on food and wine.

Kyan Douglas served as the "Grooming Guru," an expert on hair, grooming, personal hygiene and makeup, on Bravo's "Queer Eye."

Immediately after finishing "Queer Eye," Kyan Douglas took some personal time for himself and traveled the world. "I think that I was looking for fame to validate myself and what I learned from 'Queer Eye' is no amount of fame or money was going to sort of fill a part of me that was empty or missing. And so after the show I just went on a quest," Kyan told "Oprah: Where Are They Now." "I studied yoga, I traveled to Egypt and to India and South America and moved to Mexico — I mean, I studied with the shamans, I did it all." He then returned to the U.S. to host TLC's "Ten Years Younger" in 2009 and now appears as a style expert on "The Rachael Ray Show." In 2010, he was briefly romantically linked to pop star Lance Bass.

Thom Filicia served as the "Design Doctor," an expert on interior design and home organization, on Bravo's "Queer Eye."

Thom has designed projects across the world, including the VIP Suite for the USA Pavilion at the World's Fair in Aichi, Japan, an eco-friendly apartment for Manhattan's first premium "green" luxury condominium tower — which Interior Design magazine awarded its "Best Eco-Residential Design Interior" prize — and a holiday decoration installation with American Christmas for Radio City Music Hall. He's also authored two books, "Thom Filicia Style" and "American Beauty: Renovating & Decorating a Beloved Retreat," and has his own product line, the Thom Filicia Home Collection, in addition to a roster of celebrity clients that includes Tina Fey, Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony. Next up, fans can see Thom — who's been with partner Greg Calejo, a marketing executive, since his "Queer Eye" days — alongside his former co-star Carson Kressley on an upcoming Bravo series tentatively titled "Thom and Carson Project."

Jai Rodriguez served as the "Culture Vulture," an expert on popular culture, relationships and social interaction, on Bravo's "Queer Eye."
