Caitlyn Jenner is 2015’s Most Fascinating Person, says Barbara Walters

Throughout the year of 2015, Jenner has brought awareness to transgender people, and though, as Walters mentioned, she is often an easy target for criticism, I can not imagine anyone else deserving the title of “Most Fascinating Person” more than Jenner.

Caitlyn Jenner attends Culture Club’s performance at The Greek Theatre on July 24, 2015 in Los Angeles, California.

The results are in: Caitlyn Jenner is the Most Fascinating Person of 2015!

The program included footage of Jenner’s sports, celebrity-endorsement and reality TV careers as Bruce, as well as scenes from his recent metamorphosis into Caitlyn, whom Jenner publicly revealed this year at the age of 65.

It has been an awarding winning year for Jenner, she has taken home the Arthur Ashe Courage Award, Teen Choice Award for Choice Social Media Queen and the Glamour Award for The Transgender Champion.

Eight months ago, Bruce Jenner sat down with ABC’s Diane Sawyer and formally announced that he was transitioning from a male to a female.

This news was confirmed during the yearly special on ABC Thursday night, as the former Olympian landed at the top of the list over many other familiar names: Jeff Bezos, Donald Trump, Bradley Cooper, Amy Schumer, Tracy Morgan, Misty Copeland, Bernie Sanders, Donna Karan, and Ronda Rousey. She is THE most fascinating person on the planet.

“When Bruce Jenner became Caitlyn Jenner, there was a seismic shift in the gender universe”, Walters said.

Jenner married Kris Kardashian in 1991 and they had two children together, Kendall and Kylie, who grew up alongside Kris’s four children from her previous marriage – Kim, Khloe, Kourtney, and Rob.

The bundle likewise gave a flashback on Jenner’s athletic achievements, which then transformed into various supports and his time on the little screen for Keeping up with the Kardashians and I Am Cait.
