Jay Manuel Biography

Jay Manuel, a Canadian TV personality, is recognized for his diverse contributions to the fashion and entertainment industries. He's spent a significant portion of his career in front of the camera, hosting "Canada's Next Top Model" and serving as the creative director for "America's Next Top Model" during its first eighteen seasons. He's also been a guest on several popular TV programs, including "The Wendy Williams Show," "The View," and "Entertainment Tonight". Manuel's public presence has been further bolstered by his involvement in various high-profile events, such as his coverage of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's wedding for BBC / Britbox in 2018.

In addition to his television work, Manuel has also made his mark as a successful entrepreneur. In 2014, he launched Jay Manuel Beauty, a cosmetics line known for its high-definition finish. The company has since expanded, opening its first retail location in 2017 and collaborating with figures like Iman and Simon on an experiential retail concept. Moreover, Manuel has also stepped into the world of fashion design, launching a clothing line named Attitude for Sears Canada back in 2011.

Manuel's accomplishments extend beyond business and entertainment, as he's also known for his philanthropic efforts. He serves as a Smile Ambassador for Operation Smile and supports Dress for Success, a non-profit organization that provides professional attire for low-income women. Manuel's experiences in the television industry, his entrepreneurial ventures, and his philanthropic work all attest to his broad range of expertise, making him a versatile and knowledgeable speaker on these topics. In 2020, he added author to his list of credentials, publishing his first book, "The Wig, The Bitch & The Meltdown".
