Bruce Jenner Magazine Cover - A magazine cover by InTouch featuring Bruce Jenner dressed as an image of British actress Stephanie Beacham has created a controversy in recent days. In the Bruce Jenner magazine cover, the Photoshopped image showed the "Keeping Up With The Kardashians "star's superimposed face on Stephanie's body along with lipstick and rouge.
Discovery of the Bruce Jenner magazine cover having used Beacham's body was first made by Buzzfeed, according to Mirror. The website noticed the feature and matching outfits between the cover and a photo of the actress wearing a patterned scarf and red jacket taken back in 2013.
It is plain to see that the Bruce Jenner magazine cover had been photoshopped elsewhere since Jenner had bright tangerine lipstick and heavy orange blusher. Meanwhile, the headline read, "Bruce's story: My life as a woman".
A source reportedly told TMZ that Bruce's ex wife, Kris, was left reeling after discovering the controversy that the cover has created, of the former Olympian portrayed as a woman. The TMZ source said she was upset by the publication and thus "outraged" by the accusations.
"It's just mean to do whether or not it's true," Kris reportedly told friends of the Bruce Jenner magazine cover.
"She has contempt for the magazine jumping to conclusions and then altering the image to fit its story," they said of Kris' reaction.
Apart from the Bruce Jenner magazine cover headline reading, "My life as a woman," some of the bullet points on the InTouch cover include statements such as "Kris panics over his big announcement," and "What he told the Kardashians."
Bruce, 65, officially divorced Kris Jenner the previous month after being married for 23 years. He has also said already that he was never was going to change his sex. Still, speculation continued. Last year, Kris even attempted to shut down speculations over Bruce's personal life.
"Ninety-nine percent of the stuff in the tabloids is made up," she told Entertainment Tonight. "I think when he gets his nails buffed they put clear nail polish on him. The bottom line is, we [the Kardashians] sell magazines."
Meanwhile, "Dynasty" star, Beacham, has been asked for her comment on the Bruce Jenner magazine cover with the photo of her body used for it. She reportedly only found it "terribly funny", reports the Daily Mail.
Inside Edition's Jim Moret asked Beacham about the Bruce Jenner magazine cover.
"I speak no lie. Bruce Jenner looks far lovelier than I do there," said Stephanie.
Beacham also insisted that she is not angry at the Bruce Jenner magazine cover.
"I think it's terribly funny," said Beacham.
"Things happen. How could I be cross? It's the silliest thing that's happened today," she added.
As for Bruce, he reportedly seemed to be on the verge of tears while grabbing a cup of joe in Los Angeles Jan. 14. His daughter, Kylie Jenner, was allegedly deeply upset after the Bruce Jenner magazine cover had been released.
The 17-year-old was reportedly fuming with pain after seeing the Bruce on the magazine's cover, according to Hollywood Life. Kylie reportedly cried and struggled to gather the words to her dad. Bruce immediately called her daughter to comfort her.
"Kylie called him crying, asking if he was alright," said a family insider as told to HollywoodLife.com. "She kept asking Bruce if he was alright, if he needed anything and wanted to know if there was something she could do to make him feel better."
"She was in tears the whole time because she doesn't like when her father's being attacked, especially in this way," the source continued of Kylie's reaction to the Bruce Jenner magazine cover. "She was really pissed and felt [the magazine was] very mean and nasty."
HollywoodLife.com previously reported that TMZ has posted an image of the 60-year-old allegedly crying as he was driving his SUV on Jan. 14. However, it wasn't the Bruce Jenner magazine cover controversy that he was crying about; he was reportedly teary-eyed over the fact that his children had to see the cover.
"Those tears he was shedding were not for him, they were for his children," the source said. "It's one thing to talk about him, but when his girls are affected, it hurts him the most."
The Bruce Jenner magazine cover may have angered or saddened his family, but as for Bruce, one of his close friends just told TMZ, "He doesn't even pay attention to this stuff."
