Just a regular day with some woman named Caitlyn on the cover of Vanity Fare right? Wrong because that’s the artist formerly known as Bruce Jenner.
It was easy to be a cynic and suggest that interview was just a stunt to grab some viewers. When the Dash-Klan weren’t there however, and subsequently aired their own interview on E! to leech some ad revenue I bought in that this guy just wanted to play dress up.
Today he(she?) went out and owned it.
Met Caitlyn Jenner, Vanity Fair’s July cover star. Pulitzer Prize–winning contributing editor and author of Friday Night Lights Buzz Bissinger, who was given unfettered access to Jenner and her family, chronicles the tensions, traumas, and courage that shaped Caitlyn into the woman you see today. Annie Leibovitz shoots the first portraits of Caitlyn, which were taken in her Malibu home.
From a PR point of view this can’t be the end of this story. Caitlyn needs to go WWE with this and swoop in an steal some of the momager’s clients (daughter’s).
Boom, see what I did right there I just created a new show for E.
Sunday’s this summer tune into ‘Kris and Caitlyn Take Hollywood’ where the most prominent momager’s in Hollywood battle for the right to represent their kids… Sunday’s at 9 on E!”
Phew, if E! doesn’t watch out TNT might swoop in a steal that concept, they know drama, and that right there is top notch drama.
Side note. How about how wide a spectrum Vanity Fair dominated in the last month? If we did a Venn diagram of people getting excited for these covers I’d really like to see the profile of who would fall in the center.
