“The interview, the journey, the decisions, the future, the Diane Sawyer exclusive,” the tease of ABC’s “20/20” special sit-down with Bruce Jenner announces, however despite airing this Friday, it isn’t finished yet.
“Jenner’s people asked to get an early copy of the interview to watch but it isn’t finished yet. Diane has been editing and editing it, and isn’t done yet,” a close source tells NAUGHTY GOSSIP. “This interview is a big deal for her, as well as Bruce. She wants it to be perfect and has been torturing her team with changes and edits.”
The expectation is that the 1976 Olympic decathlon gold medalist and stepfather to the Kardashians (not to mention dad of celebutantes Kylie and Kendall Jenner) will use the occasion to talk about his transition from male to female, however he doesn’t reveal as much details about that as people want.
“It’s more an interview about the entire context of his life. It is framed with how he grew up, his early years and what shaped him as a person. This is juicy, but it isn’t a tabloid interview, that is not Diane’s style. Everything is asked carefully, with grace and style,” adds an ABC source.
An early teaser for Friday’s two-hour program showing the back of Jenner’s head, with just a hint of shadowy face revealed. A second promo shows Bruce walking and talking, but not much more!
