Caitlyn Jenner: I Felt Weird Making Love to Kris Jenner!
In her new memoir, The Secrets of My Life, Caitlyn Jenner gets candid – very, very candid – about all aspects of her life, past and present.
Among those? Her two-decade marriage to Kris Jenner, with no holds barred regarding the many ups, downs and confusion therein.
Caitlyn has already dropped a couple of mini-bombshells.
Asserting that Robert Kardashian knew O.J. was guilty and that Kris knew Caitlyn was trans from day one, Jenner is trying to sell books.
If those and the latest excerpts – which discuss her sex life with Kris – are representative of the memoir at large, it’ll be a global bestseller.
“We fall in love quickly (we marry after seven months),” the Olympian, 67, writes in an excerpt published today, cutting right to the chase.
“Since – let’s not kid ourselves – everyone wants to know, Kris and I [had] good and frequent sex at the beginning.”
The former Bruce Jenner, who transitioned into a woman and took the name Caitlyn two years ago, says it was still awkward, though.
Caitlyn describes the sex as “imbued with love” but admits she wasn’t “entirely comfortable” with the act of making love to Kris Jenner.
“I tell Kris about my gender issues before I make love to her. This will always be a subject of dispute between us,” she laments.
“She insists that she was taken by surprise by my ultimate transition to Caitlyn, which obviously means in her mind that she did not know enough.”
In January, Caitlyn underwent gender reassignment surgery to make that transition physically complete. But it was a long time coming.
Jenner says that on a number of occasions during their relationship, she dressed as a woman in front of Kris … and had 36B-cup breasts.
In 1990. When they met.
Cait attributes her chest then to hormone therapy, while admitting that she often stole makeup and clothing from her wife and daughters.
“I have bought makeup how-to books,” Caitlyn adds.
“I keep the [makeup] books, along with my meager collection of clothing, in a small closet with a lock in the back of my closet.”
“Kris and I have negotiated this,” she recalls of that time period, “since she is terrified, as I am, of the kids finding something.”
Strange as it was to have sex with Kris while she felt like a woman herself, Cait says the public interest in her sex life now is stranger still.
“I don’t have the appetite for [sex], which is why the public’s obsession over [my gender confirmation surgery] is annoying,” she writes.
“It hearkens back to this misperception that people transition because of their sexual desires,” says the transgender advocate.
Which isn’t to say he doesn’t have any.
The thrice-divorced Jenner admits that she has in fact thought about what it would be like to be physically intimate with a man.
On the flip side, she’s still into women … in a sense. In a section completed before she had the surgery, Jenner muses on the subject:
“A future female companion? I think about that. A future female sexual companion? Not happening, at least for now, and perhaps not ever.”
“A future male sexual companion? I have never had the inclination. But maybe that attitude might possibly change if I have the Final Surgery.”
All in all, Caitlyn is focused on living life and spending time with family, including daughters Kendall, 21, and Kylie, 19, from her marriage to Kris.
She also shares Burt, 38, and Cassandra, 36, with ex-wife Chrystie Crownover, and Brandon, 35, and Brody, 33, with Linda Thompson.

The Bachelor Finale Preview: A Love I"ve Never Felt Before
Vanessa Grimaldi or Raven Gates? The Bachelor spoilers have told us how this epic season ends for months, and soon we"ll know for sure.
In this season finale preview, however, it looks like Nick Viall was confused, worried and unsure about the decision at hand until the end.
After giving roses to Raven and Vanessa and setting Rachel Lindsay free to be The Bachelorette on last night"s episode, the end is near.
Is Nick still hedging as to who he"ll propose to, though?
“I came here to find a love that I’ve never felt before and a love that has the strength to last a lifetime,” Viall says in the preview clip.
“So now, I feel lucky because I’m so in love."
The only problem, of course, is that he"s fallen for two special people and when it comes to The Bachelor winner, there can be only one.
One rose, and Neil Lane ring, to rule them all.
Nick’s optimism is also dampened by the fact that his previous Bachelor franchise experiences with love have ended in heartbreak.
Not for the women involved, but for him.
“I’m in love with these two women, but I’ve been incredibly terrified because I was very much in love with Andi and Kaitlyn," he says.
“And I was really heartbroken both times."
"And I’m terrified that will happen again.”
Viall made back-to-back finales of The Bachelorette only to watch Andi Dorfman (2014) and Kaitlyn Bristowe (2015) chose the other suitor.
Part of him is therefore knows he"ll be breaking someone"s heart imminently, while also wondering if his decision will be the right one.
Nick’s fears clearly manifest themselves throughout the final episode, as he brings up these concerns about the women and the process.
His family serves as the sounding board.
“There’s no denying how confident I was with Andi and Kaitlyn in the moment,” he admits, adding that he"s scared about what must be done.
“So I think I would be lying if I were to make some grand answer how different this is [or will know] once I make that decision.”
"All I have to do is figure out which one I feel in my heart is best for me and I hope and pray that they will feel the same way."
Doesn"t make it any easier. Nick adds:
“It’s very hard to comprehend how strong I feel for each of these women, but I’m not sure what’s going to happen and I’m running out of time."
Who do you think it will be?

Taylor Swift: I Felt "Violated" by This DJ
Taylor Swift returned to the stage on Saturday night.
For the first and only time this year, the singer performed in front of thousands of screaming fans, even treating attendees in Austin to a cover of a Calvin Harris song.
By all accounts, Swift was happy and excited and totally in charge.
This stands in stark contrast to how she felt after an alleged encounter with a DJ named David Mueller in 2013.
About three years ago, Swift accused the radio host of seriously misbehaving her during a photo opportunity.
She said at the time that she met up with Mueller backstage after a concert in Colorado and that he acted inappropriately during this meet-and-greet.
Mueller got fired as a result of this allegation and sued Swift for costing him this $ 120,000-per-year job.
Swift then counter-sued Mueller in 2015 for sexual assault and battery.
Swift’s legal team said at the time that its client was “surprised, upset, offended, and alarmed” after Mueller “lifted up her skirt and groped her.”
Now, in court papers obtained by Billboard, we can read how the 26-year old superstar claimed she felt “violated” after this alleged encounter with DJ, who says he accidentally touched Swift.
Last Friday, a judge awarded a victory to Swift, after she asked that photos from the incident not be made public.
Even though she is fully clothed in the photos, Swift was afraid they would soil her reputation.
However, the judged denied Swift’s request to withhold other evidence in the case to be made public, including her deposition from July.
Based on the transcript released by Billboard, Taylor was posing for a picture with Mueller when the supposed incident occurred… and made her grimace in emotional pain.
“Right as the moment came for us to pose for the photo, he took his hand and put it up my dress and grabbed onto my ass cheek and no matter how much I scooted over it was still there,” Swift said in the deposition, adding:
“It was completely intentional, I’ve never been so sure of anything in my life.”
That’s quite the accusation, to say the least?
We obviously have no idea what happened here, but did Mueller really go as far as to just stand next to Swift and violate her?
Specifically, walk up next to her and casually, but deliberately place his hand under her dress, on her buttocks?!?
The singer is adamant that this is exactly what happened, and went on to outline how shocked she felt by the violation.
“I remember being frantic, distressed, feeling violated in a way I had never experienced before,” she said in the deposition.
“A meet-and-greet is supposed to be a situation where you’re thanking people for coming.”
“You’re supposed to be welcoming people into your home, which is the arena for that day, and for someone to violate that hospitality in that way?”
“I was completely stunned.”
According to Billboard’s findings, Swift’s attorneys filed a motion for summary judgment before the case goes to trial, claiming the entertainer was not in a position to get Mueller fired.
She simply made comments at the time and Mueller’s employer acted on its own accord.
This would be her argument in the case.
No word yet from Mueller’s lawyers in response to this latest development.
We’ll keep fans apprised on the case and on whether it goes to trial, gets thrown out or if some kind of legal settlement is reached.

Brian Justin Crum Felt It "In the Air Tonight" on AGT
America"s Got Talent viewers will not have an easy decision to make this summer, that much is certain.
On Tuesday night, we were treated to the latest round of live quarterfinal auditions, with multiple acts leaving their impressive marks.
There was Grace VanderWaal, for example, who had Howie Mandel tell her that she"ll be bigger than Taylor Swift.
Then there was Linkin Bridge, a quartet of artists from Kentucky whose beautiful performance captured the hearts of the nation.
We"re not really exaggerating. Watch them in action here:
And now it"s Brian Justin Crum"s turn to shine.
The singer, who first drew praise on the show for his versions of “Somebody To Love.” and “Creep” took on the Phil Collins classic “In the Air Tonight” on Tuesday.
And he totally nailed it!
“You had the whole theater on their feet, Brian,” Simon Cowell told the aspiring singer afterward.
“You have that ability, that is rare, that you take a song and you can turn it into your version. You’ve done that three times in a row. You’re getting better and better
Heidi Klum strongly agreed: “Love, love, love, love! Best performance, for me, of the night, I have to say. This is your moment, right here, right now, and you just showed that to America."
So did Mel B: "You just get hotter and hotter and hotter as time goes on. You as a performer is so seasoned and professional already. You owned that stage. You owned that entire theater.”
And, finally, Mandel simply said that Crum was "epic."
Epic enough to win the entire thing?
Check out his latest audition and see if you think he has what it takes.
