Bruce Jenner was photographed wearing a floor-length dress outside his house in Malibu on Tuesday, just days before he's expected to reveal he's transgender in an exclusive "coming out" interview with Diane Sawyer.
The photos were
published by the New York Daily News, and quickly set fire to social media sites like Facebook and Twitter — where fans of the Kardashian reality TV-empire shared and reposted them with enthusiastic support.
Jenner, 65, will be the subject of a special two-hour "20/20" interview with Diane Sawyer airing April 24. He filmed the interview earlier this year, and has since tried to keep a low profile.
Paparazzi have continued to hound him, however, and TMZ reported Tuesday that L.A. County Sheriff's deputies were seen paying a visit to Jenner's house, presumably after getting a complaint call.
"It's illegal for photogs to use telephoto lenses to invade the private spaces of the people they're shooting," wrote TMZ. "The photographers took pics of Jenner earlier in the day that were being peddled around town. They've also taken pics over the last week from the same perch and Bruce has confronted them. He said he would call the cops if they came back. Tuesday Bruce made good on his promise."
In addition to being spotted in a dress, Jenner was photographed riding his Harley Davidson motorcycle earlier this week, and it appeared he was wearing a sports bra underneath his jacket.
