Justin Timberlake Does ‘GQ’ Magazine

Graces the cover as the 'Most Stylish Man'
February 18th, 2009

Justin Timberlake, singer-actor-designer, is featured on the cover and in the pages of the March issue of GQ magazine as the mag’s pick as the Most Stylish Man in America. Here is JT’s coverphoto and some info about GQ’s list of the Most Stylish Men in America:


Grammy-winning pop singer Justin Timberlake has topped GQ magazine’s list of the “10 most Stylish Men in America,” and gives his banker stepfather the credit for his dress sense. The men’s magazine praised Timberlake, 28, for his impact on fashion, his willingness to take risks and “knack for targeting trends” including hats, three-piece suits, skinny ties and beards. The timing of the award is good news for Timberlake. William Rast, the clothing line he and friend Trace Ayala launched in October 2006, is on the runway at this week’s New York Fashion show for its second outing. Timberlake said in the March issue of GQ that he got his sense of style from his stepfather, Paul Harless, a banker who laid out his suit for the next morning every night and went to work looking “like Richard Gere in (American) Gigolo.” As for his signature style of wearing a suit with sneakers, Timberlake said it was more a matter of practicality than design. “I just put sneakers on because I couldn’t dance in the shoes I had. I couldn’t leap with just insoles and dress shoes. I would’ve hurt myself,” said Timberlake, who rose to fame as a singer with the boy band ‘N Sync and went solo in 2002. Other honorees on the list of “Stylish Men” include music producer Mark Ronson, who took second place, and photographer Alex Lubomirski, who was third. They were joined by rappers Kanye West and T.I., actor Jason Schwartzman and hotelier Andre Balazs.

I would agree that Justin is stylish but I dunno that he’s the most stylish man in America. He always strikes me as a casual dresser who tends to love scarves … nothing too cutting edge about that. Mark Ronson, on the other hand, always looks sharp and put together. Even when he’s casual, he’s dressed up. That’s style. But, who am I to argue with the likes of GQ magazine? After the jump, check out a few photos of JT from this issue of GQ mag …


Not tryin’ to hate at all but the second photo looks too odd to me. I cannot believe that it was chosen for inclusion for publication. The look on his face, it’s not that pretty. The photos overall do give a good feel for JT’s sense of style … which looks comfortably casual to me. Trust me, that’s how I like to roll, too. I hate wearing ties and dressing up. I suppose this is a win for guys who like to dress well without having to don the traditional uniform of a suit and tie.

    besides the question if he is stylish or not, these pictures just aren’t cool anyway. All of them look strange to me. And i think those pants don’t really fit him…

  2. Ju Says:

    i agree that he’s a one of the most stylish dressed men out in the media right now, but…golly….couldn’t the article be “the best looking naked man” or “the most stylish undressed man”…jeez…..i want some skin!

  3. Mr. Gyllenhaal Says:

    He isn’t over the top stylish..more safe stylish! He does look good thou!!

  4. arrjaay Says:

    I feel you completely on the second photo.
    If I was JT, I’d be pissed.
    Yikes!

  5. AmyM Says:

    He looks all growned up and at the same time like Shia Labeouf. i think it equals all good!

  6. Avi Says:

    Jt’s always going to be sexy in some form for another, but I don’t think gay men are as crazy for him as much anymore..maybe it’s his attitude and some awful song called 4 Minutes haha..He looks like he is mentally challenged a la Corky Life Goes On (sorry Chris Burke) in that one pic.

  7. Sarah Says:

    I love me some JT but that second photo could possibly be the worst angle of his nose ever!

  8. Avi Says:

    Sarah you are right on…I should have looked at that longer. It’s Adrien Brody nasty! LOL..

  9. Marisa Says:

    oh man… that man is just pure sexy to me! & i truly do love his style… its never over the top but always just right… i DEF think he is one of the most stylish!

  10. Car Says:

    I love me some Justin. but your right the second picture is odd. He kind of looks like a bobble head

  11. Kendra Says:

    I like his style..I think he always looks good..But Most Stylish? I dunno about that..I’m in total agreeance (is that even a word?) about that second pic..Horrid!!

  12. Aidan Says:

    LMostsylishFAO!

  13. Lisa Says:

    These pictures are AWFUL. They make someone good looking look ridicufied. And I agree w/you that there are better dressed men.

  14. mtud Says:

    Are these pictures doctored or does he look like a boggle head? His noggin’ is HUGE!

  15. Nushoes Says:

    Talk about bronzer!!! These pictures are too much… Was Dina Lohan involved in this?

  16. Mrs. Shermender Says:

    I heart JT & I think the thing that makes him “stylish” is that he wears suits, often & I think that is very sexy. When he’s not in a suit he is always dressed appropriately which probably helps make him more stylish.

  17. Kristen Says:

    Omg, I totally agree with you Trent!! The second picture is just…not good. I stared at it for a little while and wondered if you would mention anything about it. Haha, we think alike :)

  18. Suzy Says:

    His clothes are SO tight! They make his head look huge in comparison to the rest of his body!

  19. nicole Says:

    JT will forever have a place in my heart lol. he’s always been pretty stylish – more so after the NSYNC days. i think he deserved the title.

  20. lauren Says:

    Ugh, he always comes across as so arrogant in interviews that it’s a total turnoff. NEXT.

  21. kari Says:

    i think he looks a bit Brian Austin Green in that 2nd picture…

  22. Annabelle Says:

    JT singlehandedly brought back the scarf and t-shirt/blazer/hoodie look, and he’s to thank for male musicians steppin’ up their game in the fashion department. If he didn’t rock the 3-piece during the Sexyback era, I don’t think his peers would’ve caught on. I agree though about those pics….they don’t do him and his hottness justice!

  23. Alex Says:

    Yeah he really does seem arrogant thinkin’ he’s the shit. He looked hot when he was like 15…now not so much. But that’s my opinion.

  24. memyselfandi Says:

    What the hell is up with his head? It’s friggin HUGE!! Makes him look like a stick insect.

  25. Tracy Says:

    Jesus. He is BEAUTIFUL.

  26. Celebrity Gossip: Hayden Christensen, Rachel Bilson, Suri Cruise, Justin Timberlake, The Hills, Katie Price | Latest Gossip, Celebrity News and Paparazzi Photos | Scandalist Says:

    [...] Does Justin Timberlake look weird on the cover of GQ, or is it just us (and Britney Spears and Cam Diaz) who think that?  [PITNB] [...]

  27. Trevor Says:

    uh, no. he is not the most stylish dude in America.

    he’s rather tiring and boring.

  28. Chase Says:

    PENIS NOSE.

  29. Kent Says:

    That’s exactly what I was thinking as well when I looked at the second photo. Not attractive at all.
    He looks top-heavy in it, and as though he’s about to bump into the lens.
    @Chase – hilarity! u r so right.

  30. Elle Says:

    Meh. They’re okay. I’m over my JT crush and why does he look like he is about to take a big dump on the cover and first picture?

  31. Noteworthy News 2/18/09 « All Sorts of Awesome Says:

    [...] Justin Timberlake… GQ’s most stylish serial killer? [...]

  32. Lis Says:

    He needs to stand up straight!

  33. kla2008 Says:

    He looks scary on the cover…. its giving me nightmares.

  34. Greeneyedinfl Says:

    I dont care for any of these pictures….The clothes he is wearing in them look like they are 2 sizes 2 small? He is a tiny guy already, and these just make him look like a 12 year old boy.

  35. ShellieSays Says:

    I think he looks very gay and definitely not the most stylish, the most gayest, yes!

  36. jennie Says:

    I had the pleasure of meeting him at a meet and greet once. in person he is on the short side for a guy about 5ft 8in. but drop dead sexy this pics do him no justice at all

  37. La Princesa Says:

    NO!!!!!!!!!!! I can’t stand this guy.

    Anyhow, I’d vote for Hugh Jackman.

  38. Ambaa Says:

    I am trying to find a suit just like this for my man. Does anyone know where? The designer or something?
