Serena Williams named GQ Woman of the Year -- but cover sparks controversy

(CNN)Tennis great Serena Williams has been named GQ's Woman of the Year -- but the magazine's cover has caused a stir on social media with many questioning why "Woman" was in quotes.

The 37-year-old, called "The Champion" by the magazine, features in one of four covers of December's 'Men of the Year' issue wearing a black long-sleeve turtleneck leotard.
GQ, which first made women part of its Men of the Year honorees in 2003, included the American alongside actors Michael B Jordan, Henry Golding and Jonah Hill.

como la whore

Serena's friend and designer she's been working with was responsible for this. It's his "style" apparently but I personally didn't care for it. Especially given her history dealing with the tranny comments and people questioning her biology.

Maybe Serena wanted to make a statement or simply didn't care. I just didn't care for it at all. It takes away from the cover.

oh well.

Opposites Attract.

Magazine editorial staff be so out of touch with people of color it's pathetic. I don't really care for MBJ's cover either. He's sex occasionally but looks like Bill Cosby on the cover.


It's unconditional, these days you know....
