On a break from filming, Queer Eye's interior design extraordinaire Bobby Berk has travelled to Washington DC - but not for a holiday.

Berk, arguably the most underrated member of the 'Fab 5', wasted no time leaving his mark on the political capital, tweeting congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and offering his design expertise. 

"Hey @AOC! I'm in DC all week girl!" He tweeted.

"Put me to work! 'Have time... will work for democracy!"'
Ocasio-Cortez, who has vocalised her love for RuPaul's Drag Race in the past, was quick to accept Berk's offer.

"Swing by our office!" she replied.

“We’ve barely had time to hang anything up, three of my staffers are expecting babies, and we’ve got a bach pad/warehouse type of situation out here. SOS!”
It's believed the two have been in touch via DM since the exchange, which begs the question: could we be in for a Queer Eye takes Congress special in the near future?
