Tyra Banks will play Dirk's estranged brother who has had a sex change. why would they have her play a crazy role like that? the world of televison can think of some sick crap. if they were going to do this they should have got a woman who is ugly, because some who looks so good shouldn't play this.

I think they should have gotten RuPaul to do it, at least he's a real cross dresser.

I agree!! No doctor is a good as God when it comes to creating a creature like Tyra Banks!!!!!! They would have gotten more laughs if they got Chris Rock to dress in drag!

Now that's funny!!

I guess she wants to prove that she can act and be known for her acting than her looks like Halle Berry Charlize Theron but it is a different kind of role for her and she is cast against type!!

They so should have done that. RuPaul played a cross dressing friend of LL on In the House.

I wonder why this episode didn't come on last night. Patti Labelle was supposed to be on here too with Tyra Banks. I saw Tyra on the cover of Jet magazine this month & there is a picture of her inside for a video she did singin. Her face is so damn skinny, she looks anarexic hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Does she ever eat? LOL. Tyra needs to stick to acting & modeling. Nobody will buy her cd when it drops LOL.

Yeah I remember that episode, that's why I suggested RuPaul for the part.

RuPaul is funny and would be a riot for the role!!

Tyra Banks & Patti Labelle episode came on yesterday evening. It didn't come on last Tuesday where i live cause of a college basketball game. I missed last night's episode cause when i looked at my tv guide, i didn't know it came on at 7:30 pm.

Uh - I think you all are missing the POINT. The fact that someone as gorgeous as Tyra was Dirk's brother makes it funny and not as obvious as RuPaul (been there, done that) PLUS this episode was about a sex change - not just cross dressing. i thought Tyra was really funny as well as Patti Labelle and I think the show is getting better writing and better jokes. Tony Rock was hilarious in his scenes with Tyra.
