Caitlyn Jenner has been named Barbara Walters’ Most Fascinating Person of 2015. The 66-year-old transgender reality star also made the list of Googles Most Searched Topics of 2015. Walters announced the honour by saying, “Our choice for the most fascinating person of the year was once called the world’s greatest athlete….Traditionally that title was given to the man who won the Olympic decathalon. When Bruce Jenner won it in 1976, it was a huge accomplishment that had everybody talking. But it was nothing like this. When Bruce Jenner became Caitlyn Jenner, there was a seismic shift in the gender universe.” The annual television special also honoured Amy Schumer, Tracy Morgan, and presidential candidate Bernie Sanders. But stealing all of their thunder, Jenner was called “most fascinating” by Walters, as her public transition on I Am Cait actually “transformed society.” Walters explains that Jenner “was a lightning rod for criticism” and she “brought new attention to the grim reality of life for many transgendered people.”

We know him as Kevin McCallister from Home Alone but McCaulay Culkin is all grown up. Culkin gave fans a sneak peak at his “all grown up” self by starring in the first episode of a new comedy web series called :DRYVRS. Created by musician and actor Jack Dishel, the series follows Dishel’s character as he meets and shares rides with the driver of an app called “:DRYVRS”. In the video, Culkin & Dishel don’t outright say that Culkin’s character is Kevin from Home Alone, but it is implied.

Looks like Kelly Clarkson accidentally told the world that she is expecting twins! Remember how she spontaneously revealed she was pregnant? “I was not planning on announcing this, but … I’m totally pregnant. I’m having a really hard time.”
