People across the Internet are showing their support for Bruce Jenner in a beautiful way.
The former Olympian and reality TV star came out as transgender in an interview with Diane Sawyer which aired on ABC’s “20/20″ on Friday night.
Prior to Jenner coming out, Australian radio show, “The Kyle and Jackie O Show,” planned a social media campaign, calling on people to paint their nails and upload pictures of their manicures to social media with the hashtag, #PaintYourNailsForBruce, to show their support for Jenner.
