Bruce Jenner Interview: Aussie Men Are Painting Their Nails In Support - And It's Officially Amazing

The #PaintYourNailsForBruce campaign started after the Olympian said he’s looking forward to ‘having nail polish on long enough that it actually chips off’

In what was one of the most heartfelt moments in Bruce Jenner’s interview, the Olympian was asked what he was most looking forward to now that his secret was out in the open.

“To be able to have my nail polish on long enough that it actually chips off,” he replied.

Anyone following Bruce's transition will know that he has been spotted wearing nail polish in the past - although the reason for that was kept secret, until he came out as a transgender woman in his interview on Friday, April 24.

In fact, they went as far as visiting Sydney’s Central station with a bunch of Sally Hansen nail polish and encouraging passers-by to get their nails painted!

NB. In a statement, a spokesman for Bruce Jenner confirmed that he is ‘choosing not to live publicly in the media as a woman’ so we have used male pronouns in this article.
