Queer Eye's favourite hair stylist, Jonathan Van Ness, has shocked a Kiwi woman in a beauty store while on tour with his stand up show in New Zealand.
Posting a video to Instagram, Van Ness shares that he popped into beauty outlet Sephora in Auckland to see if his lineof hair care products was in stock.
Standing in front of a display of his range, he's seen hugging a woman who holds her hand over her mouth in disbelief.
"S***, sorry, excuse me, sorry," she says to Van Ness who chuckles and places a hand on her shoulder.
Van Ness calls the woman "a super sweet lady" in his caption where he reveals he signed a few of his products for fans to nab from the Auckland store.
"I asked this super sweet lady if she needed help finding anything and signed a few boxes if you wanna grab them Auckland."
The video has received almost 40,000 likes and nearly 500 comments including: "Omg haere mai (welcome)!!!!" and "Welcome to New Zealand you gorgeous person."
One commenter asks how the woman stayed so composed: "She held it together so well I would be a mess," they said of the chance of meeting Van Ness, who found fame on Netflix series Queer Eye as the show's "grooming expert".
