She is one of the most well-known transgender actresses and performance artists in the USA. She performed in New York drag nightclub shows in the 1990s and came out as transgender in 1996.
Most of us know her for portraying transgender mistress Carmelita on ABC's prime-time drama Dirty Sexy Money (2007), which made her the first transgender actress to play a recurring transgender character in primetime. In her Vogue interview, she said that she was not really ready for a memoir but she was inspired by the need to share her thoughts about feminine inner beauty.
She began transitioning in 1996. She supports LGBT+ rights charity GLAAD and in 2015, she teamed up with the global LGBT social network MOOVZ as the new global creative director. For over eight years, ending in 2010, Cayne was in a relationship with DJ Marco McDermott, to whom she referred as her husband. During that time, she helped raise McDermott's daughter, Satori.
In 2016, during season 2 of the reality show "I Am Cait", she explored the possibility of adopting as a single mom.
