Caitlyn Jenner in her first E! reality series promo: 'I'm the new normal'


Following her official introduction in a Vanity Fair cover story, Caitlyn Jenner is primed for her own E! series, I Am Cait — and today, the network unveiled a first look:
"People go through life, and they never deal with their own issues, no matter what they are," says Jenner in the promo. "Ours happen to be gender identity, but how many people go through life, and just waste their entire life, because they never deal with themselves? To be who they are?"
Though the promo is brief, it does give a small glimpse into Jenner's ongoing adjustment to her new life. "Isn't it great that maybe someday you'll be normal? Just blend into society?" she says wistfully. When her friend insists that Jenner is normal, she replies: "Put it this way: I'm the new normal."
