Caitlyn Jenner wins another well-deserved award.
Caitlyn Jenner has been named The Most Fascinating Person of 2015.
The annual list of Top 10 Most Fascinating People was presented by 86 year-old Barbara Walters on ABC in America.
"When Bruce Jenner became Caitlyn Jenner, there was a seismic shift in the gender universe", Walters said.
"If you found yourself unable to take your eyes off Caitlyn Jenner this year, then you weren't alone."
Walters concluded: "Famous and familiar, she raised awareness and acceptance of transgender people. Through her own transformation, Caitlyn Jenner transformed society this year, and that for us makes her the most fascinating person of 2015."
Jenner topped the list alongside other famous people this year including Amy Schumer, Misty Copeland, Bradley Cooper, Donald Trump, Bernie Sanders, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, Ronda Rousey, Donna Karan and Tracy Morgan.
Last year's winner was Amal Cooney and the year before that Hillary Clinton scooped the number one spot.
