Amber Riley and Jesse Tyler Ferguson among guest judges on RuPaul's Drag Race 4

RuPaul's Drag Race 4 is coming in January 2012 and TVGuide has outed some guest judges for the new season including Glee's Amber Riley and Modern Family's Jesse Tyler Ferguson. Omigosh this is going to be so good. Jesse was an amazing judge on So You Think You Can Dance this summer, so I can't wait for his comments on Drag Race.

From TVGuide:

When Season 4 of the competition show — which pits drag queens against each other — kicks off in January, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Rose McGowan, Loretta Devine, Kelly Osbourne and two of my personal faves — Modern Family's Jesse Tyler Ferguson and Glee's Amber Riley — will be sitting pretty at the judging table. What's the draw?

"This show does something very special for the gay community," explains Jesse. "There's a message hidden inside the totally gaudy package that is so fun to watch. It's all about loving and accepting yourself, and every season I'm surprisingly moved by it."

"I was so excited to do this I started screaming," echoes Amber.

Amber also hopes her Glee character, Mercedes, will be given a gender-bending kid brother when the series brings on cross-dressing Glee Project runner-up, Alex Newell, later this season for his two-episode arc. "Alex seems so liberated when he's in drag," Amber says. "It would be great for younger Glee fans to see a character like that."
