[@AnjelicaTimms]

Even Elvis thought he was a good looking man ;)

[@lisadiconti]

I know. I feel weird too for having a fancy towards him since I know he's a woman now.

[@barbaracaroll]

Not weird she was a strong athletic good looking Hunk of a man

[@michelelafiura5272]

[@mamatgaol7819]

One in a million
Absolutely my my hero
Now and forever

[@julietteyork6293]

He was wearing women’s lingerie under his clothes at this point. He was such a masculine athlete. People are bizarre.

[@samthetileman9579]

If you would've asked this guy about a sex change at this interview, I wonder what he would've answered.

[@americanlover3374]

Well he has admitted hes always wanted to be a woman from a very young age, so what do you think

[@Zeebo89]

He must of loathed his wardrobe

[@dariahughes5564]

Omfg his voice was more feminine than Caitlyn!! How's that right!?

[@americanlover3374]

Because he was very young here, why do you think

[@lisadiconti]

People's voices get lower as they age.

[@hendrikmostert3305]

How can a such a normal guy become so insane?

[@AyyyC]

By hiding yourself and having an identity crisis your whole life. Good things she’s finally comfortable now

[@veganc5028]

By getting involved with the insane Kardashian clan. Being around those women would make anyone insane. He never wanted to be a women, he was pressured into it for ratings on the show and getting himself into the limelight again

[@Sttephy30]

@@veganc5028 Lies. He was thinking about transitioning before he even met the Kardashians. This is why his first wife left him, cause he told her he was going to start transforming into a woman.

[@andrearel3703]

Too much time around celebrity freaks in Hollyweird.

[@joewash5942]

He looks a bit different now

[@arealmench]

smart man (woman rather)

[@yourmom2325]

I had no idea he was an Olympic gold medalist. That's so crazy, I just thought he was some fancy lawyer.

[@onefoot7]

whaddya live under a fuckin' rock

[@tomtom6319]

Oh, he was fancy!!!

[@source5729]

I can really see his daughter Kendall here…
