Gay Atlanta journalist grabs a wig for TV [video]

You’d never know from listening to staid reporter Jim Burress, but the gay journalist and WABE weekend anchor favors green wigs and outlandish costumes. At least when he’s on a television game show losing a new car in under three minutes.

On Monday, Burress appeared on the CBS game show “Let’s Make A Deal.” What got him plucked from the crowd by host Wayne Brady? Dressing as a $100 bill complete with a bright green wig.

Too bad about that brand new Jetta, though.
