I’m really sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but misery loves company. It appears that the scantily clad Vogue cover wasn’t enough for Bruce “Caitlyn” Jenner. Now Jenner plans to pose naked for Sports Illustrated, except for a strategically placed American flag and gold medal. Ugh, makes you a little less proud to be an American, doesn’t it?
Caitlyn Jenner will appear on a summer cover of Sports Illustrated wearing “nothing but an American flag and her Olympic medal,” a source reveals in the latest issue of Us Weekly.
The 66-year-old I Am Cait star (formerly known as Bruce) set a world decathlon record at the 1976 Montreal Summer Games. To celebrate the 40th anniversary of her win, she’ll pose with her gold medal for the first time post-transition, adds the source: “She’s excited about that.” (Her ex-wife Kris appeared topless with a medal during a 2007 photo shoot on Keeping Up With the Kardashians.)
WHYYYYYYYYY?! What is SI thinking?! Exactly NO ONE wants to see that! Sure, the cover will be shown everywhere, but nobody’s actually going to want to buy the magazine.
Any publicity is good publicity, I guess.
Now I’ll leave you with a video on South Park’s hilarious spoof of Jenner to get your mind off all this.
Buckle up, buckaroos!
