TORONTO - A ground-breaking storyline on "Degrassi" gets a celebrity boost Friday when Chaz Bono drops by to offer some words of advice to a troubled transgender teen.
Bono says he leapt at the chance to appear on the series when he learned of its Emmy-nominated plot surrounding Adam, a female-to-male transgender student.
The celebrity advocate says he wishes there were such TV representations of transgender life when he was growing up, noting that he spent "years and years in pain and confusion."
