Caitlyn Jenner to Embark on Speaking Tour

Caitlyn Jenner may soon be coming to a city near you.


No, the former Olympian is not about to embark on a singing career. But she will be getting behind a microphone.



A rep for the transgender star has confirmed that will be embarking on a five-stop speaking tour in 2016 with an organization titled “Unique Lives and Experiences.”


Not many details are available regarding the theme of Jenner’s upcoming speeches.


But it’s safe to assume she’ll touch on many of the same themes we applauded her for in the Caitlyn Jenner ESPYs speech.


Acceptance. Tolerance. Self-confidence. Self-belief.


Jenner, of course, came out as a woman in an interview this April with Diane Sawyer.


She then went on to chronicle her life in transition during I Am Cait, an eight-episode reality show on E! that has been picked up for a second season.


The title of Jenner’s lecture will be “Up Close and Personal” and her mini tour is scheduled to place in Toronto, Vancouver, Denver, San Francisco and Seattle beginning in late February.


Tickets are already on sale, ranging from $ 40 to $ 500 for a VIP package, depending on the location.


Back when she was known as Bruce Jenner, after she won a Gold Medal in 1976, Jenner spent many years on the inspirational speaking circuit.


This, however, marks Jenner’s first speaking tour since announcing her transition.
