73-year-old Caitlyn Jenner said even more bad stuff about Dylan Mulvaney after she criticized Nike’s deal with the TikTok star a few weeks earlier. Jenner said that she and Mulvaney have “nothing in common” and called Mulvaney a “fringe” person who is “not good” for the LGBTQ+ community.
I have never spoken to her, nor will I,
the former Olympian told the New York Post.
I try to be, for the LGBT community, the adult in the room. She is not. She is bouncing around all over the place. I have nothing in common with her,
she added.
The fringe is the worst thing that can happen to the trans community and the media only wants to report on that because of the sensationalization of it and honestly that’s got to stop,
Caitlyn Jenner continued.
I am glad the position I am at today that I can be a voice of reason about what is going on out there,
she noted while speaking to the New York Post.
Caitlyn Jenner slammed Nike’s endorsement deal with Dylan Mulvaney.
Prior to her most recent comments, Jenner said she was upset that Nike gave Mulvaney a sponsorship instead of Olympic gold medalist Allyson Felix.
As someone that grew up in awe of what Phil Knight did, it is a shame to see such an iconic American company go so woke! We can be inclusive but not at the expense of the mass majority of people, and have some decency while being inclusive. This is an outrage,
Caitlyn Jenner wrote on Twitter at the time.

Mulvaney’s “Days of Girlhood” series made her famous on TikTok. Earlier this month, she posted a few Instagram photos and videos of herself wearing Nike gear. She also tagged Nike Women when she liked the new Zenvy leggings and Alate bra from the brand.

Jenner and other conservatives were upset that the Broadway star worked with the brand. The criticism about Nike came after Mulvaney’s partnership with Bud Light beer got a lot of negative attention online and caused the company’s vice president, Alissa Heinerscheid, forced to take a leave of absence.
Caitlyn Jenner has been a vocal critic of Dylan Mulvaney.
Jenner has been vocal about her disagreements with Mulvaney for a long time, long before Mulvaney started getting paid to promote popular brands. The fight started in October 2022, when the former criticized Mulvaney for her “Normalize the B*lge” campaign, which was about making it okay for women to have b*lges.
There is a difference between acceptance and tolerance, and normalizing exposing your genitals in a public way and a public place. I do not support that at all, in the slightest. Dylan…congrats your trans with a p****s,
Jenner wrote at the time.
Caitlyn Jenner came out in 2015 when she told Vanity Fair about her transition in 2017. She was also in the 2015 documentary “I Am Cait,” which told the story of her change. The former athlete is known for supporting conservative politics. In 2021, she ran for a Republican for governor of California, but she didn’t win. She came in 13th place.
