Still mourning the loss of Queer Eye For the Straight Guy?! Of course! We all are! But you know– gays are very 2003. And let’s not even talk about the Daughters of Sappho. They went out with GO FISH and BOUND. I don’t even think I’ve laid eyes on a lesbian since Janet Reno was still Attorney General.
Being on the vanguard of alternative gender identity means it’s time for a makeover show on reality teevee! Enter: TRANSform Me, the groundbreaking new program where a bunch transwomen tell a bunch of frumpy non-trans hausfraus how to look fabulous fierce like hot tranny messes. Emphasis on the hot, of course!
TRANSform Me is a makeover show in which a team of three transgender women, led by the inimitable Laverne Cox (I Want To Work For Diddy), rescues women from personal style purgatory. Laverne and her ultra-glam partners in crime have undergone the ultimate transformation, so they’re the perfect women for the job.
They’ll travel the country in their tricked out fashion ambulance, siren blaring, and swoop into scenes of fashion disaster. They’ll not only make women look better but feel a whole lot better about themselves. It’s about discovering one’s inner personal style. […] The subject expects to be made over for a reality show–but she doesn’t know it’s going to be by three transgender women.
Will this program be empowering and barrier-breaking? Or will it just be another pathetic minstrel show embarrassment? My money is on who cares I’m watching! Which isn’t saying a lot cause VH1 could give Adolph Hitler himself a dating show and I’d watch it just to avoid having to change the channel after Celebrity Rehab. But check out the TRANSform Me page and decide for yourself…
They look good, except for the chins!! 😛
sounds fun, I want to see it.
It’s like if What Not to Wear and Ru Paul’s Drag Race had a hot mess of a love child. I’d watch it =)
I don’t even know. I’m looking forward to reading about it, though.
