From her costume to her actual performance, Jenner looked inspiring. The 71-year-old chose to make her bow as Phoenix because she wanted an outfit that would be gender-neutral.

Although her luck ran out as she was easily guessed and was voted out, the night was still thrilling for the former Olympic champion.
