Caitlyn Jenner Almost Twins It Out With Kris In Her Speech

Caitlyn Jenner is bringing a new reality mini series called I am Cait. In the latest peek into the show, Jenner dons tennis whites and whacks a ball around, looking free and happy. Of course, she's not only being fit in the clip, she's being fab as well. She brags about being the "authority on hair and makeup" in the family, and almost accidentally twins it out with ex-wife Kris Jenner.

Most moving, however, is Jenner's declaration that "I'm still the same person," a message all the promos for the show and press about Jenner's transition has stressed. Caitlyn has been here all this time, we only just met her recently. "I Am Cait" will premiere on E! later this month.

Caitlyn Jenner (born October 28, 1949), known before 2015 as Bruce Jenner, is an American athlete best known for winning the men's decathlon at the 1976 Summer Olympics. Jenner was assigned male at birth and raised in New York and Connecticut. Olympic team and becoming the American champion, she became a national hero with the 1976 victory, winning an event back from Soviet Union Athletes during the Cold War.She was dubbed the world's greatest athlete and used her fame to become a celebrity spokesperson and pursue careers in film, television, auto racing, and business.

In June 2015, Jenner debuted her new name and image, and marked using feminine pronoun self-descriptors. While she has undergone some cosmetic surgery, she has not undergone sex reassignment surgery or ruled it out; she stated that, for her, life as a woman is primarily a matter of mental state and lifestyle. She said she has never been attracted to men and had exclusively been attracted to women before her transition and now identifies as asexual. With her profile raised by her national coming out as a trans woman in April 2015, Jenner became one of the most recognized LGBT people in the world and arguably the most famous LGBT athlete.
