Is Bruce Jenner planning to undergo a sex change? His estranged wife Kris finally breaks silence on the recent reports.

"Ninety-nine percent of the stuff in the tabloids is made up," said Kris. "I think when he gets his nails buffed they put clear nail polish on him. The bottom line is, we [the Kardashians] sell magazines."

The former Olympian was spotted sporting a rather glamorous manicure, as well as leaving The Beverly Hills Surgical Centre with a bandage across his throat last week after allegedly undergoing surgery known as a "laryngeal shave," the procedure which reduces the size of the cartilage in the neck and is typically performed on patients in the initial stages of gender reassignment process.

It has been also reported that Bruce Jenner is not only planning to undergo a sex change, but also hoping to change his name to Brigitte after screen icon Brigitte Bardot. "He loves Brigitte, not only because it's such a beautiful name, but it makes him think of Brigitte Bardot, who was a total bombshell," a source claimed. "She also starred in [the 1956 movie] 'And God Created Woman' -- and Bruce thinks it's just perfect since he's in the process of becoming a woman."

However, his sons Brody and Brandon actually are not bothered by their father's choice to "flatten his Adam's Apple," nor his potential effort to look more feminine.

"The boys don't think their father is trying to become a woman and simply laugh at rumors," another source said. "They do believe that Bruce became more conscience of his physical appearance and how he looked after 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' premiered. They blame their step-mother [Kris] for all of the plastic surgery he has had over the years."

"Kris always encouraged Bruce to have his face nipped and tucked," the source added. "He has had plastic surgery to remove excess fat above his eyelids. The Adam's Apple surgery is just following in that pattern."
