Kendall Jenner felt really uncomfortable when a fashion magazine recently asked her about her views on the recent speculations about her dad Bruce Jenner's gender transition. Kendall neither denied nor accepted that the news about her dad becoming a woman is true. The 19-year-old reminisced about times when she would go to “Finding Nemo” premieres with her dad and said that said that “even before the show [“Keeping Up With The Kardashians”], my dad was who he is – an Olympic athlete.”

"That’s not about me, so we can move on?" the 19-year-old replied when Zach Baron from GQ magazine asked her if she's comfortable about his father's transition. The reality star was also asked to react on a recent story by US Weekly, "Bruce's Journey: How He Told His Kids.” “All that is bulls--t. I don’t even know what they’re talking about, so I have no idea,” the reality star is quoted as saying to GQ magazine. Kendall also added that she is not that one who will have an answer to these questions. The US Weekly story has now been taken down after the magazine put the blame on a freelance reporter's false reporting.

The reality star-turned model also talked about how her life is “not normal” anymore as she is always under the glare of media's eye. But the recent speculations around her dad's alleged gender change has put her family on media radar for more pronounced reasons. The 65-year-old Olympian is appearing in an interview with ABC's television hostess Diane Sawyer.

The network is promoting the yet-to-be aired interview through various promos. "My whole life has been getting me ready for this,” the former Olympian is quoted as saying in the promo video of the talk titled, “Bruce Jenner – The Interview.” Though Bruce has not talked about his gender transition, various websites have alleged that his upcoming interview will focus on the same issue.

Paparazzi pictures often show Bruce with painted nails and other feminine features. The Olympian has also grown his hair and allegedly undergone breast enhancement surgery. Bruce is yet to officially comment on these reports. “Bruce Jenner – The Interview” airs on ABC on Friday, April 24, at 9 p.m. ET.
