Carson says there was some good-natured ribbing among the cast back in his day … but nothing ever rose to the point of someone backing out of media appearances to plug the show, as has been the case with Karamo.

TMZ broke the story …  Karamo had a falling out with three of his “Queer Eye” co-stars after his mom overheard Antoni, Tan, and Jonathan trashing her son in a hot mic moment on set.
