REALITY TV star Caitlyn Jenner has joined the rank of TIME magazine100 Most Influential People List.

This was confirmed by E! News, one day before the magazine is due to hit newsstands.

The magazine's annual list recognizes leaders, athletes, musicians, artists, entrepreneurs, activists and other icons of the moment who have made an impact through out the year.

Transgender activist, Wayne Maines wrote a short article on Jenner describing the 66-year-old Olympian as a “hero”.

"Caitlyn did know the consequences of coming out. Because no matter where you come from, how famous you might be or how much money you have, letting America see you in such a vulnerable way is daring and admirable—not self-serving,” he wrote.

According to E! Online, Jenner has received numerous honours from various magazines and organizations after her transformation in 2015.

The accolade of ‘Women of the Year’ in October 2015 by Glamour magazine.

Since then, Jenner has traversed across the United States offering motivational talks and appearing in her television reality show ‘I Am Cait’.
