Caitlyn Goes Glam, Rides Motorcycle, Reveals Reason Behind ‘I Am Cait’
Caitlyn Jenner introduced herself to the world on the cover of Vanity Fair, and now we'll get a glimpse into her life with E!'s “I Am Cait,” an eight-part documentary series premiering July 26.
In the latest sneak peek at “I Am Cait,” Caitlyn is dressed in a long, flowing pink dress as she explains why she decided to do the docu-series.
"I am telling my story,” Caitlyn said during the promo. “People don't understand looking into the mirror, and nothing seems right. Putting on clothes that you really just don't identify with. This is about getting to be who you really are."
She continued, "We're going to talk about everything. We're going to do a lot of fun things for the first time. We're going to go shopping for the first time. Maybe even some boy stuff, like ride a motorcycle—because girls do that too!"

Caitlyn added, “It's going to be quite a journey. We're going to do some good.”
Kris Jenner broke her silence on Caitlyn's historic Vanity Fair cover to “Extra” from Cannes, and what her thoughts about Caitlyn's transition.
"I think it's amazing," she said.” "I think that someone following their dream is truly inspirational to a lot of people. You have to do what makes you happy."

Before the series premieres, Caitlyn is scheduled to accept the Arthur Ashe Courage Award at the 2015 ESPY Awards on July 15. This will mark her first red carpet appearance. Caitlyn has reportedly tried on over 20 dresses for the event, reports Hollywood Life.
“Cait's having a huge dilemma because she has no clue as to what she will wear to the ESPYs,” a friend of Caitlyn told the media outlet. “She's been trying on dress after dress, gown after gown, and nothing she's tried on so far catches her eye. She's even tried on several different pencil skirt ensembles because she's considering showing a lot of leg and rocking the meanest heels possible.”
The source added, “She doesn't know yet. She's literally already had about 20 different fittings.”
“I Am Cait” premieres July 26 at 8 p.m. on E!
