‘GQ’ Magazine Honors The ‘Men Of The Year’ For 2008

While People magazine is honoring its annual list of the Sexiest Men Alive today, GQ magazine has compiled its own list of men to honor as well. Both male and female celebs made their way out to the Chateau Marmont in LA, CA last night to enjoy GQ magazine’s 2008 Men Of The Year Party — bestowing top honors to Leonardo DiCaprio and John Malcovich. Here are a few pics from the red carpet arrivals last night:

Actors Leonardo DiCaprio and John Malkovich walked away with top awards at this year’s GQ Men of the Year ceremony. The Body Of Lies star picked up the Leading Man Trophy, while Malkovich was named Mad Genius of the Year at the men’s magazine awards ceremony in Los Angeles on Tuesday. President-elect Barack Obama was given the nod as Game Changer of the Year, actor Jon Hamm was handed the Breakout award and Olympic champion Michael Phelps took home the ultimate accolade for Golden Boy of the Year. The glittering party attracted some of Hollywood’s brightest male stars, including DiCaprio, Zac Efron, Adam Brody and Aaron Eckhart. And although the annual celebration recognizes leading men, the ladies were out in full force too, with Megan Fox, Rosario Dawson and Elisha Cuthbert turning out for the red carpet bash. The main list of winners is as follows:

Leading Man: Leonardo DiCaprio
Game Changer: Barack Obama
Breakout: Jon Hamm
Golden Boy: Michael Phelps
Mad Genius of the Year: John Malkovich
Obsession of the Year: Megan Fox
Drama Queen of the Year: Sean Penn
Screen Idol of the Year: James Franco
Tough Guys of the Year: The Wire Writers
Mogul of the Year: Seth MacFarlane
Prick of the Year: Gordon Ramsay

While I don’t necessarily agree with this list of honorees as I did with the People magazine list, there are a few winners that I am in complete agreement with — Barack Obama, Megan Fox, James Franco. After the jump, check out a few more photos from the red carpet arrivals last night — there is more hotness to be had …

GQ‘s Obsession of the Year dished at last night’s event that she is planning a small wedding to fiancée Brian Austin Green:

Despite reports to the contrary, Transformers hottie Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green are “still engaged,” he tells PEOPLE – and they’re busy planning the wedding. “[The ceremony will be] small,” the former Beverly Hills, 90210 star added at Tuesday night’s GQ bash in L.A. “Originally we were talking elopement and now we might have a few people there.” Still, he said, don’t expect a lot of press hoopla surrounding their big day. “You might hear about it the week after.”

Man, how did Brian Austin Green get so lucky? Good for him. And how amazing does Kathy Griffin look? She tells US Weekly that a new season of My Life on the D-List is on the way:

“It’s season 5. We start shooting [Wednesday],” Griffin, 48, told Usmagazine.com at the GQ Men of the Year party in L.A. Tuesday night. “Literally, it’s our first day. I know, what am I doing here [at this party]?” What to expect this time around? “Season 5 is going to be a little bit of a transitional season because it’s going to be more celebrity oriented,” she said. “[It's] the way that American Idol sort of started as a singing contest and then every week you expect to see the mentors. I have some really good guest stars coming on the D-List this year.” But she’s keeping her lips zipped. “I can’t tell you, but please call Bravo!” she said. “I’m actually getting a lot of people that I want to, and it’s really, really exciting. “And the two Emmys didn’t help,” she added jokingly. “Suck that Efron! The more important thing is that I have more Emmys than Zac Efron! I just want to make sure we are good on that.”

Love it. Much congrats go out to all the pretty people who were honored by GQ this year … I’m sure all the accolades are much deserved cuz, you know, these celebs could really use a little more ego-stroking ;)
