Caitlyn Jenneris using humor to set the record straight about her transition.
Amid cheers from the audience, Jenner continued, “I raised 10 children. I’m coming up on 20 grandchildren. I didn’t cut it off — I just retired it. It was done!”
“I want to take this moment to publicly thank you,” said the NBA player, 30, as Jenner watched from a seat onstage. “As an athlete I want to thank you for bravery. And as a human, I want tothank you for doors you’ve opened.”
“And on behalf of the entire NBA and half of the rappers on the Billboard charts, I want to thank you forgiving your daughters their daddy issues,” he finished, to raucous laughter from the audience and Jenner, herself.
The Detroit Pistons power forward couldn’t resist poking fun at the famous family a little bit more, though, quipping, “Caitlyn completedher gender reassignment in 2017, finally confirming that no one in that family wants a white d—.” Jenner laughed at the joke.
