... Has been named, by "GQ Magazine" the Most Stylish Man in America.
My first reaction was a realization that I am so far out of the loop of what is commonly considered stylish or fashionable that I couldn't even think of a single thing this young man wears, beyond those little shrunken fedoras that I had only previously seen on female R&B singers, not that there is anything wrong with that.
Then I thought, in this post modern surreal era of "anything goes" fashion, I suppose there are worse choices.
Here's the blurb from "The Washington Post,"
Justin Timberlake named most stylish man in America
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - 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.
I suppose if he is credited for his "impact on fashion," it is better that he was recognized rather than the fellow who brought us the gray oversized sweatsuit, the double beer holding hat -with straw, or the psuedo retro $50 T-shirt.
But that's just me, and I could be wrong.
