Queer Eye grooming guru and catchphrase generator Jonathan Van Ness had a big day yesterday (July 12), garnering Emmy nods not just for Queer Eye but also for his Funny or Die web series Gay of Thrones. His reaction to the happy news has since gone viral.
 
A video clip of Van Ness being greeted by his fellow Fab Five Queer Eye co-stars turned up online, and it's so pure and joyous and beautiful, it only makes sense that it has gone on to become its own Twitter moment.
 
See JVN's reaction — and some of the reaction to JVN's reaction from Twitter and the rest of the Fab Five — down below.
 
Queer Eye is nominated for Outstanding Casting for a Reality Program, Outstanding Cinematography for a Reality Program, Outstanding Picture Editing for a Structured Or Competition Reality Program and Outstanding Structured Reality Program, while Gay of Thrones is up for Outstanding Short Form Variety Series.

The Emmy winners will be announced on September 17.
