The debut of Caitlyn Jenner had heads turning on Monday – but one member of the Kardashian family didn’t know who it was!
As it turns out, Rob Kardashian didn’t even recognize his own stepparent on the cover of Vanity Fair, at least according to Kim Kardashian.
“I’ve been on the phone maybe… sending the cover to all the family members. It was so funny because all the girls, we knew that Caitlyn was shooting this, but my brother [Rob] had no idea,” at the CFDA Awards in New York on Monday night.
“So, I send it on a mass text to everyone and my brother was on it and he goes, ‘Kim, why are you sending me this? Who is this woman?… And why do I care?’ And I was like, ‘Rob, that’s Bruce! That’s Caitlyn!’
As soon as he realized who it was, Rob was impressed.
“He was like, ‘Oh my God, she’s beautiful!'” Kim recounted. “And then he called her and they had a love fest.”
Following the Vanity Fair cover debut, Caitlyn also launched her own Twitter account, as well a a Facebook and Instagram account, and ended up breaking the record for fastest Twitter user ever to reach 1 million followers.
As of Tuesday morning, she had surpassed 2 million followers.
