“Well hello and welcome to Barnes and Noble!  Looking for a magazine? Follow me right this way.

Here we have our Women’s Interest section.  You can see there is a section for Brides.  Those brides look about your age.  Are you married?”

 

“Look at all these cover photographs of pretty ladies doing nothing in particular.  Women’s Interests also includes cooking, weight loss, and just looking gosh darn pretty! Not interested?

Perhaps you enjoy physical activity without the purpose of weight loss? I thought as much! Here’s our sport section.”

“Hmm, there doesn’t seem to be anyone who looks quite like you…

Are you an artist?”

“You have to squat for the art section, kay?

What exactly are you looking for, anyway?”

“Ah, I…see.  I’ll leave you alone then.”

Dear GQ reader,

As you can see, we have given you a selection of cover photographs to choose from this month.  The content is the same.  Please choose based on the image with which you most identify, based on age and ethnicity.

Good choice. The theme for this issue is how to never go out of style.  We will show you the world’s handsomest man, and give you a look inside the mind (i.e. Q&A interview) of the guy behind that explosively successful musical.

Dear reader, we like Kurt Russel because he has always just been himself.  How has he done it?  By maintaining good hair, not fussing around, and just generally being decent. These are the hallmarks of being just right.

Here are some great interpretations of advice we gleaned from talking with Kurt Russell. We thought you might like to run away; build charisma and charm;  straight-talk elders; and make money while doing it.  Basically, we know you’re looking for shortcuts on how to be you, and we’ve got them.

Our favorite part about writing this feature article on Kurt Russell was including all the direct quotes that actually came from the interview!  That’s right, we gave you full paragraphs of ideas from the man himself.  We thought you also might appreciate his raw honesty about is career, and his candid use of the word “fuck”!

How fun!  We learn more about Kurt Russel from Kurt Russel than we do from the author!  Unlike this article in Marie Claire, where we learn more about the system that the author and Kate Hudson are a part of, instead of Kate Hudson.

Here at GQ, we celebrate Kurt Russel’s right to be inappropriate.  In fact, being inappropriate got him to where he is today, because he’s just being himself, after all, which is just right.  Kurt Russell will say it like it is, which is why we like him so much. There are some women we like for this, but we won’t feature them.  We target a male audience.

We let the other guys get away with fucking (!) around too, because gosh, they’ve earned it, even so early on in their careers!  We celebrate their free-thinking so much that we let their very words grace our pages.

Check out how chill and real this guy from broadway, Lin-Manuel Miranda, is. We’ve included over 2,000 words of words from the subject of the article himself. Kate Hudson has nearly 600 words.

Now that you’ve fed some of your interior life and artistic process, we thought you might like to learn how to wear a suit from James Marsden, the handsomest guy in the world.

With looks so good they are sure to annoy.  But what about his personality?

We wanted this article to act as a pedestal for this man who is considerate, according to author, Anna Peele.  We close this article with a funny scene.  Anna sits down with James Marsden for lunch.  He tells a funny joke!

Look at the funny joke he tells us!!!!

All in all, we love him for it.

hehe!

Dear reader, please let us know what you might like to see more of, see less of.  Please be honest.  We love that.  Unless you want us to show how we don’t celebrate the same qualities in women as we do in men.  We won’t.  Women are pretty, especially when they look like each other, and that’s it.

Cheers.
