Bruce Jenner is NOT going to compete as a woman on “Dancing with the Stars” next fall. RadarOnline made up the story, as the webloid has made up so many stories about Jenner and his family. Gossip Cop can exclusively bust the rumor.
According to RadarOnline, “[Jenner’s] sex change surgery is set for this summer, and after that… he plans to make his debut as a woman in a big way: By appearing on Dancing With The Stars!” A phony “insider” tells the outlet that Jenner “wants his public debut as a woman to be very big, and there is no better platform than going on Dancing With The Stars.”
The site points out that Kim and Rob Kardashian have both appeared on the show, and quotes an “insider” as saying Jenner’s children “think it’s absolutely wonderful Bruce is going to be on DWTS. Just to see Bruce smiling again is everything to them.”
RadarOnline’s source even claims Jenner was “in talks” to compete on the current season of the dancing competition, but “the timing didn’t work out.” The webloid’s supposed insider says, “Since he is planning on undergoing a sex change operation this summer, the fall would be a perfect time for Bruce to introduce himself to the world as a woman.”
We hope RadarOnline introduces itself to better sources. Or fact checkers. Or anyone, really, who would step in and stop the site from spreading bogus reports like this one. A rep for Jenner tells Gossip Cop exclusively that the whole thing is “false.” Jenner is NOT in talks for “Dancing with the Stars,” period.
