Honestly I don't see what the big deal is and why GLAAD is outraged. I mean it's a comedy show you just have to roll with it. GLAAD says "The attempted comedy of the skit hinges solely on degrading the lives and experiences of transgender women," but let's be honest here this skit is not degrading transgendered women in the least. I wonder where GLAAD was when they did skits on KFC, KOTEX and other various products.

Tyler Perry's Madea as BLACK SWAN
In a bizarre effort to promote his new Madea film, Tyler Perry has turned to the critical acclaimed BLACK SWAN for poster inspiration.
The iconic one-sheet is one of the more memorable things about that film and I guess Madea is hoping it has the same effect for her. I'll be damned if I can't scrub this image out of my brain though.
I actually thought that Tyler Perry was literally making a Black Swan spoof with Madea when I first saw this, which would have ramped the insanity dial up to 11. Thankfully it's just promotion for MADEA'S BIG HAPPY FAMILY which should feature all your typical fatsuit tomfoolery the drones who keep paying for these movies are used to.
