Seth MacFarlane and Channing Tatum Among GQ’s ‘Men of the Year’
Question: What do Christopher Walken, Usain Bolt, and Frank Ocean have in common? No, they?re not forming a metal band or set to star in the next ?Paranormal Activity? movie (I sure as hell hope not.) These go-getting dudes were named Badass, Athlete, and Musical Phenom of the year, respectively, by GQ.
If you?re not one to wear expensive Italian suits or travel to tropical islands on a regular basis, you might have missed out on the Men of the Year 2012 list published in GQ?s December issue. As in year?s past, the magazine has given props to men who proverbially ?owned? the year. This year?s top men included Rick Ross, Philip Seymour Hoffman, and the cast of ?Django Unchained,? to name a few. Not to seem biased towards the entertainment world, the magazine even tipped its hat to NASA?s Mars Rover Team (which includes one woman.)
What do you think of the picks? Are these guys really worth your admiration? Do the ?New Girl? guys really compare to Chinese civil rights activist Chen Guangcheng? Is Republican senator Marco Rubio as deserving a dude as Ben Affleck? Check out the list and see if your idol/man crush made it. I?m rooting for Don Draper in 2013.
