Bruce Jenner: "Life as a Woman" Magazine Cover Outrages Kris Jenner - See Photo

The cover for the newest issue of In Touch magazine shows Bruce Jenner as a woman wearing full makeup and a silk scarf.

The image is Photoshopped, but it's still likely to leave readers with the impression that Bruce's transition into a woman is all but complete.

If there's anyone who knows about the power of perception and how easily the public is swayed, it's Kris Jenner. That might be why Bruce's ex is reportedly very angry about the way her former husband is being portrayed in the media.

Sources tell TMZ that Kris flew into a rage when she saw the doctored In Touch cover. Apparently, even though they're no longer together, Kris remains fiercely protective of Bruce and his image.

"It's just mean to do whether or not it's true," Kris reportedly said to a friend.

This is in sharp contrast to previous reports that claimed Kris mocks Bruce for his desire to transition into presenting as a woman.

Perhaps now that he's no longer her husband, she doesn't care if he rocks makeup and women's clothes.

Ironically, the same sources who say Kris is infuriated report that Bruce isn't bothered by the way he's portrayed by the tabloids.

"He doesn't even pay attention to half this stuff," says one insider. We guess 13 years of being married into the Kardashian family would give you a thick skin when it comes to negative press attention.
