Introducing Caitlyn Jenner: The Woman Formerly Known As Bruce [Photos]

Say goodbye to Bruce Jenner and hello to Caitylyn. Jenner debuted her Vanity Fair cover and new transgender identity on Monday via a newly created Twitter handle (@CaitlynJenner). Jenner became the fastest person to reach 1 million Twitter followers later that same day.

 

It’s also been announced that the Olympic Gold medalist will receive the Arthur Ashe award for courage at The Espy awards this July.

“In the past few months, the overwhelming outpouring of support from all over the world for my journey has been incredible,” said Jenner. “However, being honored with this award, which is named after one of my heroes, is truly special. For the first time this July, I will be able to stand as my true self in front of my peers.”
