Steven Tyler Was a Total Drag in 'American Idol' Return (Video)

Steven Tyler might have been wearing women's clothes and a wig during Thursday night's episode of "American Idol," but dude didn't look much like a lady. And he certainly didn't act like one.

Former "Idol" judge Tyler dropped in on the gang masquerading as a contestant named Pepper. And while he no doubt wasn't fooling anybody, he definitely provided quite the spectacle -- especially after he ripped off his wig and mooned (or pretended to moon, anyway) the judge's panel on the way out.

Way to make an ass of yourself, Steve. Especially when, as the segment clearly proves, "Idol" host Ryan Seacrest makes a much prettier cross-dresser.

Watch the whole thing unfold in the video.
