VH1's New Series 'Transform Me' Premieres Monday, March 15 at 10:30PM ET/PT

The Groundbreaking Series Looks At Transformations From The Inside Out

Catch a Sneak Peek of the Premiere Episode on Friday, March 12 on VH1.com


LOS ANGELES, Feb. 26 /PRNewswire/ -- VH1 and Left/Right Inc. have teamed up to create a new edition of fashion makeover shows with "Transform Me." Each half-hour episode follows the makeover of one
woman badly in need of a transformation -- on the outside and inside. The subjects quickly find out this won't be your typical makeover. They'll be transformed by three transgender women. The ultra-glamorous makeover team, led by Laverne Cox (VH1's "I Want To Work For Diddy") with Jamie Clayton and Nina Poon, travel across the country answering "style 911 calls" in their deluxe fashion ambulance, helping subjects find the right style -- and the confidence that comes with it. The new eight-episode 30-minute series will premiere Monday, March 15, 2010 at 10:30PM ET/PT.

"'Transform Me' is a show about everyone who's ever felt that the person they are on the inside isn't quite reflected in who is seen on the outside. Transgender folks are in many ways the ultimate example
of this. We've taken extraordinary steps to bring who we are on the inside…out, and we're committed to helping other women do the same thing. If we can do it, anyone can!" said Laverne Cox.

For more information and education about what it means to be transgender, please visit transform.vh1.com. Viewers can catch a sneak peek of the season's first episode on VH1.com on Friday, March 12 – three days before the on-air premiere. Subsequent episodes will be available on VH1.com the morning after they air. Additional video content from Transform Me including extras, fashion tips and bonus footage from each episode will be available on VH1.com and on VH1 Mobile throughout the season.

As much as I want this to herald in a new era of peace, love and understanding, I'll bet vital parts of my anatomy that it ends up like every other typical reality/docu-drama crap that's clogging the television schedules today.

I'll keep my fingers crossed, but I'm not expecting much...that way I'm not disappointed.

Note that it is a show where three M2F women make over women assigned female at birth.
