Candis Cayne recently spoke out in defense of close friend Caitlyn Jenner’s overt glamour. Some have criticized the I Am Cait star’s look–especially her big reveal on the cover of Vanity Fair magazine.

“When you’re coming from a sports hero, you have to do a 180, you have to go the exact opposite,” Cayne says. “If they’re gonna put her in a frumpy dress on the cover of Vanity Fair, nothing would have been gained by that. They needed to show that side of Caitlyn, which is female, ultimately female. And every girl has that in her, doesn’t she?”

Candis Cayne is quick to agree with critics who diss Caitlyn Jenner, saying she is anything but an average trans woman. She defends her once again, however, since Bruce Jenner didn’t become Caitlyn Jenner until age 65.

“Yes, Caitlyn had it easier financially,” Candis points out, “but she waited till she was 65.”

Some believe Caitlyn Jenner and Candis Cayne are romantically involved, but that doesn’t appear to be the case. Candis Cayne seems more like a close friend with the experience Caitlyn needs to navigate this new world she has entered.

Both Candis Cayne and Caitlyn Jenner meet with a matchmaker on an upcoming episode of I Am Cait. It’s unlikely they will be matched up with one another.

It seems that Caitlyn Jenner is very luck to have a friend like Candis Cayne in her corner.

Do you think there is anything else going on between the two?
