I don't think this is a good picture of him. It also seems that GQ is capitalizing on his tragedy to sell. Oh well. I like the magazine.

Kuntye is man of the year? For what? Putting out shitty music, whining like a little bitch when things don't go his way and sending his mom to her death for a tit job? Daniel Craig doesn't deserve to be on it either.

Re: honeybab –

Are you fucking retarded? Every day, nearly every story you have to put up bullshit about how whom ever the story is about was at some dating web site? Dumb fuck-show some respect you fucktard. Trust me, anybody stupid enough to believe your bullshit doesn't have one penny to spend on your website so stop already.

…now back on topic…
If you are a subscriber, how do they decide which cover you receive?

I feel bad for him but, never really liked him and now it pains me to see so many people jumping on the Kanye bandwagon and making him more popular than he should be. Take away the make up and all the photo touch ups and you would see a fugy dude right there. Man of the Year? I think not.

MEN of the year….for someone that rips on everyone else for everything you would be more careful.

OH, NICE EYE LINER! I guess real men (I mean MAN) do wear makeup!

67

OMG…now he is gonna mil this for all its worth. Im already sick of heraring about it and she isnt even the ground yet. Good Gawd..I suppose he thinks he should get some pitty awards too. Pathetic loser. This is what you get when you and your mom go around telling everyone you are just like CHRIST! you reap whay you have sown Kanye.

I am so happy for Kanye West!

Losing your mother (especially if you were really close with her) is probably one of the most difficult things to ever go through, and it's even harder when the whole world has to watch you go through it.

I feel his pain because I lost my mother on August 31st of this year. So Kanye, all I can say is keep your head up and stand strong….

Make her proud, and remember that she is always looking down on you, and you've gained a new guardian angel

There should never be a close up of this hideous creature. He is almost as gross as Perez.
Poetic Justice says – reply to this

71

Kanyes mother compared her son to Jesus while he posed on the front of Rollingstone with a crown a thorns, also implying that he was Jesus.

Now shes dead. You do the math.

He looks like mr. potato head in this extreme close up…what is with the men's mags and all the bad cover pics…tehy managed to make Jonathan Rhys Myers looks AWFUL and he is so hot

why the fuck is that idiot on the cover.
MakeUsayHmmmm says – reply to this

76

I bet he had his mom killed so he could get some more publicity. He is a low life pile of shit.

Kanye can go to hell and take that hillbilly from Arkansas with him.

Re: Thisgirl – This picture is not flattering. I'm surprised they used that cold lighting to begin with and apparently didn't bother to fix it. Terribly amateur looking.

Nice MAN-EYELINER!!!!

IS HE WEARING BLACK EYELINER? NOT ATTRACTIVE AT ALL!
Sullivan says – reply to this

82

Oy vey! Kayne West has too much attitude. A hip-hop superstar - excuse me. Here today, forgotten tomorrow. As for GQ - just another reason not to buy the magazine. Too many celebrities on their covers and we all know - 'celebrities suck'.
WHY IS HE WEARING EYELINER? says – reply to this

83

WHY IS HE WEARING EYELINER? HE IS TO ARROGANT. THERE IS A BIG DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CONFIDENCE AND BEING COCKY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

love kanye!!!!!
Wowza says – reply to this

91

Wow, go figure. A black racist, getting rewarded. Can you imagine a white racist becoming GQ's Man of the Year. Whites, blacks, and everyone under the sun would be bitching up a storm.

Anyone remember when Wil Smith went on an anti-white tirade during a Barbara Walters interview? Yes, Wil blame whitey for the mess the black community has created for themselves.

Wake up dumb fucking white people, the US is about to turn into South Africa!!!!

92

why is he wearing soo much eye-liner..?
Anna says – reply to this

93

I feel sorry for Kanya losing his mother. But he should not have gotten man of the year. He has whined about any and everything in music that didn't go his way. The people that made that decision should have their heads examined.
fred sanford says – reply to this

94

What a bunch of CRAP! KANYE IS ONE OF THE SHITTIEST, PHONIEST CLOSETED HATEFUL FUCKS TO EVER WALK THE PLANET. He was paying for the 4 plastic surgery operations on his momma so that she would be more "fuckable" as he so delicately put it. He is scum (as is his gay boyfriend Hype Williams). The two of them probably planned this mess to help with Kanye's publicity.

Kanye looks weird. He has the skin of a 35 year old with all the lines and wrinkles, but he also has the facial features of a 16 year old. He doesn't really look like a grown man, but he kind of looks old too.

Also, what's with the eyeliner????

Whitney Houston Last Performance! Sang Yes, Jesus Loved Me The Night Before Her Death!

We have truly lost one of the greats today.

Whitney Houston has passed away at the age of 48, and although the cause of her death is currently unknown, she made an appearance last night at the Kelly Price & Friends Unplugged: For The Love of R&B Grammy Party at True Hollywood, and even took the stage to sing what sadly, ended up being her last public performance.

Listen to the icon's still-powerful rendition of Yes, Jesus Loves Me (above).

And we love you, too, Whitney. You will be deeply, deeply missed.

May you R.I.P.
