HALF A BILLION DOLLARS!
Yeah, I won’t make you wait to find out the answer to my headline teaser. According to media experts, Bruce Jenner is gonna cash in mightily after coming out as transgender:
The brave trailblazer Caitlyn “could become the wealthiest” of the Jenner-Kardashian family after her emergence, experts told the NY Daily News. VH1 personality Rob Shuter, a one-time leader of Dan Klores Communications, said her net worth could eclipse a half-BILLION dollars if everything cracks well for the Vanity Fair cover girl. “If all the stars align, she could be worth over $500 million in the next five to 10 years,” Shuter said. “Caitlyn is going to be a pioneer.” Caitlyn, who already had a net worth in the neighborhood of $100 million, had already proven her popularity with huge ratings in her April 20/20 interview with Diane Sawyer, and by racking up 1 million Twitter followers in four hours. Pop culture journalist Brian Balthazar said that “a book deal [for Caitlyn] could hit seven figures” and “speeches could garner six figures each.”
Seriously? I’d wear a dress for half a billion dollars. Sheesh.
