Laverne Cox, who will be co-starring with Jamie Clayton and Nina Poon in the upcoming Vh1 make-over show “Transform Me.” Taking a twist on make-over TV, women who are thought to be in a “style emergency” will find themselves made over “inside and out” by three transwomen experts. It will be interesting how the trans status of the make over artists will be played out in the show - if it will star center-stage, ursurping the rest of their personalities, or if it will simply be shown as an additional faucet. How will the women react to being made over by trans women? Will this provide education and insight for the audience? It will be interesting to see how this subject is handled.
