By Carson Blackwelder

Tan France has just become our country's newest -- and most stylish -- citizen.

"A few minutes ago, I officially became an U.S citizen!!" the "Queer Eye" star wrote on Instagram alongside a photo of him at his citizenship ceremony.

Another photo in the slideshow shows France, 37, posing with his American-born husband, Rob France. The two have been married since 2007.

"For me, this is monumental," France added, explaining what this moment means to him. "It's something I've been working towards for literally 20 years, which makes this all the more emotional."
