Chaz Bono On ‘Degrassi: The Next Generation’: Will Help Transgender Character In Season 12
Posted in: Today's ChiliDegrassi Community School is gearing up for a Chaz Bono cameo.
According to The Canadian Press, Bono will make an appearance on Season 12 of MuchMusic’s “Degrassi: The Next Generation,” which airs on Teen Nick stateside. In the episode, Adam, a transgender character on “Degrassi,” will compete in a battle of the bands contest, which Bono will judge. Adam spots Bono and approaches him to discuss girl troubles and struggling with his identity as a transgender teen.
“There are a lot of trans kids and teens and to have representation of themselves really means a lot,” Bono explained to The Canadian Press. “At that age there wasn’t anything [for me]. I didn’t know about transgender people or that there was a possibility to transition or anything. And it made it really difficult to figure out what was going on with me.”
