The three transgender female stars of the new VH1 series "Transform Me" are transforming television while transforming women across America.
New VH1 series stars three transgender women as makeover specialists.

A twist on the traditional makeover show, "Transform Me" stars three transgender women, Laverne Cox, Jamie Clayton and Nina Poon, who drive around in an ambulance -- make that glambulance -- responding to style emergencies.

At the same time, they are changing the television landscape on Monday nights.

hmm well, VH1 has some funny shows but... I hope they know how to manage this.

Problem with MTV shows is, that they can be very controversial, like a hit to the wall, look at Jersey Shore for example.

I wish best of luck to them, they're gonna need it.

overall its a great idea and the girls are very positive so i wanted to like it more than i do but they just play wayyyy too much into stereotypes, although they are the more harmless ones.

They do play to many stereotypes, but luckily they have such positive upbeat attitudes, good appearances, and decent voices there are far worse examples for people to associate with the transgender community.
