I'd take Laverne or that other chick that came out with a book.. oh geez.. black lady, curly hair... I can't think of her name at all...
Janet Mock!

But I'd prefer Laverne! Her personality is amazing and I had the opportunity to host her for a talk at my school my senior year and when I first met her, I got tongue tied when she asked me where the bathroom was LOL! She's stunning in person and really tall + her 5" pumps were killer! I'm 5'8" and I love tall ladies who aren't afraid to throw on some cha cha heels!

Everyone was in tears by the end of her speech, it was so inspiring for people in all walks of life, not just LGBT

That bronzer duo just looks like they took all the unsold Hibiscus Kiss from RiRi and slapped Ellie's initials on it.
LOL!

It does look the same, or perhaps a lighter version of Hibiscus Kiss.
That is still one of my favorite bronzer combos. Love it. I hoarded that baby like nobody's business!

Just heard on German TV that Caitlyn is gonna do VG 2016!
I'll buy it if I like the product but in my opinion they should have gone with someone else. So many other people who have transitioned are better candidates. In my eyes Caitlyn is still Bruce and for a while probably will be and to be honest I use to think Bruce was the least money and fame hungry of the family but now he's just like them. I have nothing against Bruce or him transitioning I'm glad he will finally be able to live the life he's wanted but why do you have to capitalize off of it I don't wanna see Caitlyn on runways magazine covers or makeup campaigns at least not now I wanna see Caitlyn walking out of the grocery store or target. Just my thoughts my vote would have been for Laverne cox and Caitlyn maybe in a couple of years. I get where Mac is going with this but i don't understand why Caitlyn would do this now not.

The blush shade in HK is beautiful! I wish they'd make it into a stand alone blush.

I think Caitlyn should be put on hold for a couple of years too, I feel like Caitlyn hasn't developed their own style yet. Like with other celebs once it's released that a celebrity will be the face of Mac/Viva Glam the first thing I say is "ohhh, they do have nice makeup"... I think Caitlyn needs to get her own style before being the face of anything. I'm sure Caitlyn has been approached by lots of companies so Mac may of needed to move fast on this. I am interested in the the lipstick though, I will always buy Viva Glam products if I like them, regardless of the spokesperson because it is such a good cause but there are better candidates at this moment.

smh. lol. smh This is soooo foul. lol. I laugh at memes because they are funny but I don't agree with it one bit. Kris Jenner is alot of things but a less attractive woman than Caitlyn is just not so. Kris is a beautiful woman imho. Caitlyn has a whole lot of air brushing done. She looks great but not better than Kris. lol smh. The internet is not cruel

I'm happy for Caitlyn and the fact that she's living her authentic life. I can't imagine the pain she went through for 60 yrs. I have no problem with her having her own collection, I just think Laverne Cox the first transgender woman to be on the cover of time magazine, Emmy nominee, Glamour woman of the year among a list of many other accolades should have been chosen first.

They are just riding on the coat tails of all this hype. VG is something I'm sure is usually planned months and months in advance. For them to just randomly makes the decision now just seems like publicitymongering.

To be fair though, MAC is a business. Using someone that everyone is currently talking about is a smart business move.

Everyone? Or everyone in the States? VG is global - not everyone keeps up with the Kardashians errr Jenners lol. I'm not saying it was an unwise business move though. I was just saying they are taking advantage of the publicity and hype. I wonder who they had lined up for VG 2016 before this all blew up.

http://jezebel.com/makeup-brands-are-salivating-over-caitlyn-jenner-1708686101 I'm not sure if anyone here was talking about this, but I think a Viva Glam Caitlyn or even a Caitlyn Jenner collection would be amazing. 
I think it'd be great to have a trans VG spokesperson! If not Caitlyn, I'd love Laverne Cox.
I'd honestly be surprised if the next VG spokesperson WASN'T Caitlyn or Laverne. Should be Laverne, though, IMHO. I just think that the association with the Kardashian clan means Caitlyn is taken less seriously in some circles.
I'd love to see Conchita Wurst for VG! IDK how popular she is internationally, well she won last year's Eurovision Song Contest, and she's such a kindhearted, lovely lady with a beard and the most fabulous hair and eyes! ♡ always super glamourous. Jean Paul Gaultier let her present a wedding dress at the end of one of his shows, he's a big fan of hers. Also yay for Caitlyn, Laverne, and more fab ladies!
I don't think Conchita is as well known in North America, but I'd love to see her do a collaboration!!
