We love this friendship!
Caitlyn Jenner has been making all new friends since going public with her transition, and now it appears she's besties with Orange Is The New Black star Laverne Cox! The TV star and the reality star bonded during a private screening of I Am Cait this past weekend, and Miss Cox couldn't help but gush about her new friend on Instagram.
"@caitlynjenner and I finally met in person at a special private advance screening of #IAmCait. #TransIsBeautiful #girlslikeus #caitlynjenner," she captioned the above snapshot.
The actress has been a fan of the Olympian since she announced she was transitioning from male to female, and even wrote a very moving piece on Tumblr about her now famous Vanity Fair cover. "I am so moved by all the love and support Caitlyn is receiving. It feels like a new day, indeed, when a trans person can present her authentic self to the world for the first time and be celebrated for it so universally. Many have commented on how gorgeous Caitlyn looks in her photos, how she is “slaying for the Gods.†I must echo these comments in the vernacular, “Yasss Gawd! Werk Caitlyn! Get it!†she wrote.
There's a new "It" crowd in Hollywood!
