Jemell M. Nelson, Who Was the Production Assistant of Queer Eye Season 7, Died on November 14, 2022, From Numerous Gunshot Wounds!

Jemell M. Nelson, a native of New Orleans, Louisiana, entered the entertainment sector presumably around 2022 despite a brief period of instability brought on by the global Covid-19 pandemic. Although he himself lacked a great deal of experience, his three credits show that he more than made up for it with his consistent hard effort, resolve, and curiosity. These include Production Assistant for Season 3 of Love & Marriage: Huntsville, Covid-19 Compliance Officer for the same original series, and Production Assistant for Queer Eye Season 7.

After all, Jemell wouldn’t have ever been able to secure a single role in any studio production, much less these three significant ones in such a short period of time, if he wasn’t a serious professional. The Lusher Charter School alumnus is also said to have had a strong interest in science and medicine; in fact, he had studied Pre-Med Biology at the University of New Orleans.
