Caityln Jenner Is 2015's Most Fascinating Person: Barbara Walters

Joining the ranks of Hilary Clinton and Princess Diana, Caityln Jenner was named the 'Most Fascinating Person' of the year by Barbara Walters. Jenner, formerly Bruce Jenner, stunned the world with her man to woman transformation.

According to USA Today, Walter's list of most fascinating people for this year included Amy Schumer, Donald Trump, Bradley Cooper, Bernie Sanders, Jeff Bezos, Tracy Morgan, Donna Karan, Misty Copeland and Ronda Rousey. Jenner was also one of the contenders for TIME's 'Person of the Year' and came second on Google's list of 2015's most searched people.

"If you found yourself unable to take your eyes of Caitlyn Jenner this year, you weren't alone," Walters reportedly said on her annual special which aired Thursday. "Through her own transformation, [she] transformed society this year and that, for us, makes her the most fascinating person of 2015," she said according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Former Olympian Jenner shocked and surprised all including the Jenner-Kardashian family by announcing gender transformation. Ever since she went public with her transformation, Jenner has spoken out in support of transgender rights, which was also cited by Walters on her show.
