Say farewell to Bruce and hello to Caitlyn. The former Olympian is no more but his new self-made version with a "soul of a female" emerged on the cover of Vanity Fair magazine. The world gets a first glimpse of Bruce Jenner's new persona, Caitlyn.
Vanity Fair posted a picture of their latest spread with the former Bruce Jenner on the cover who is introduced to the world as Caitlyn. Working with famed photographer Annie Leibovitz, Caitlyn was photographed in her Malibu home for the upcoming July issue of the magazine. The front cover shows Caitlyn wearing a cream colored bustier with long wavy locks draping over her shoulders and a caption that reads, "Call me Caitlyn."
In an article by Vanity Fair, Caitlyn Jenner said that the two -day photo shoot was an emotional one and compared it to winning the gold medal in decathlon for the 1976 Olympics.
"That was a good day, but the last couple of days were better. This shoot was about my life and who I am as a person. It's not about the fanfare, it's not about people cheering in the stadium, it's not about going down the street and everybody giving you 'that a boy, Bruce,' pat on the back, O.K. This is about your life," Jenner said.
Jenner spent hours with Pulitzer Prize winning, contributing editor to Vanity Fair and author of non-fiction book "Friday Night Lights" Buzz Bissinger.
"If I was lying on my deathbed and I had kept this secret and never ever did anything about it, I would be lying there saying, 'You just blew your entire life. You never dealt with yourself,' and I don't want that to happen," Jenner told Bissinger.
Now that Caitlyn has finally come out, eyes are also aimed at the Kardashian and Jenner sisters. Bruce is father to Kendall and Kylie Jenner and stepdad to Kim, Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian.
In a report by Yahoo News, Caitlyn's children were among those who had nothing but well-wishes. Kim Kardashian was initially the most supportive when Bruce revealed his identity in an interview with Diane Sawyer. But now as Caitlyn Jenner, the sisters are nothing short than supportive as shown in their individual Instagram posts.
"How beautiful! Be happy, be proud, live life YOUR way!" Kim Kardashian posted with a photo of Caitlyn on her Instagram.
Kendall posted the behind the scenes video of the Vanity Fair cover shoot with a caption, "Be free now pretty bird." Kylie did the same by posting a photo on her account describing her father as her "angel on earth."
"I'm not doing this to be interesting. I'm doing this to live," former Bruce now known as Caitlyn Jenner tells Bissinger.
