Radar Online has reported that Caitlyn Jenner got a huge pay cheque from E! to document the former Olympian's transition, forking out $5 million for the eight part series.
Although her decision to become a woman is personal, former Olympian, Bruce Jenner now known as Caitlyn Jenner, was paid handsomely or rather beautifully (no pun intended) by E! to document his transformation.
According to RadarOnline, before her transition, Caitlyn/Bruce was reportedly offered $2 million for a new docu-series titled 'I am Cait' on E! But the TV network was forced to jerk its offer to $5 million following fears other networks were ready to part with a higher figure just to have exclusive rights to film and broadcast the eight part series.
Here's how RO reports it: "It's the biggest pay-cheque ever given by E! for a solo reality show, and Caitlyn's agent was relentless in getting her the huge payday. At one point, talks between the network and E! had broken down, because nobody wanted to pay her more than $2 million. Caitlyn's agent then began informal talks with other networks, and E! quickly came back to the table, ready to pay $5 million".
