GQ’s ‘Men of the Year’ List Populated by Women Sparks Backlash

The well-known journal is internet hosting two completely different occasions to rejoice their honorees — on Wednesday, they threw a shindig out in London … and are available Thursday, they’re going to do the identical factor right here within the States. For each, it is a star-studded get-together … guys and gals, in actual fact.

That is what’s received some individuals’s panties in a bunch on Twitter — when you go fishing for the outrage, you may discover it … with a superb handful of parents asking why there’s such a powerful feminine presence in GQ’s highlight of their “men.”

A few of the ladies acknowledged as “Men of the Year” nominees there included … Jasmine Jobson, Mary Earps, Simone Rocha and Bianca Saunders, simply to call a number of. Once they run it again on Thursday … Kim Kardashian will undoubtedly be in attendance.
