Caitlyn Jenner has long been a reality star when he was still Bruce Jenner as part of "Keeping Up With The Kardashians," but he became the sole star with "I Am Cait." However, he admits not being so much of a social media nut so she got a Twitter account using the handle @Caitlyn_Jenner.
This was followed by her first tweet of a selfie captioned, "No #SocialMediaQueen can be crowned without posting a selfie, so here's my first." The tweet was shared more than 8,000 times and favorited over 30,000 times.
EOnline notes that the angle of the photo, shot inside a car, was perfect, making the entertainment website wonder if Caitlyn got some selfie shot tips from stepdaughter Kim Kardashian or daughter Kylie Jenner. It also observes her caption was perfect.
More than a month since Caitlyn admitted her gender shift, interest in the former Olympian continues to be high with her Twitter account breaking the microblogging site's record for fastest to reach 1 million followers. However, her 1 million still pales in comparison to the eight-digit followers of other social media-savvy celebrities such as Selena Gomez, Katy Perry, Taylor Swift, Nicki Minaj, Miley Cyrus, Lady Gaga and Justin Beiber.
The real Social Media Queen will be named in the 2015 Teen Choice Awards on Sunday, August 16.
However, Kim appears not willing to lose to title to her stepfather. On Thursday, she posted on Instagram a selfie with former State Secretary Hillary Clinton and husband Kanye West. Kim has 42 million Instagram followers.
The selfie was taken on Thursday night at the house of Beiber's manager in Los Angeles where a fundraiser for 250 people was held. The tickets were $2,700 each.
