Sop you beautiful bastards, don't be even a fantastic Friday.

Welcome back to the Philip DeFranco show.

And if you're new here on Fridays, we do things a little bit different.

Fridays I try to cover more viewer requested stories,

as well as stories I wanted to get to, but

ended up not getting to earlier in the week.

And so with that said, let's just jump into it.

The first thing we're to talk about today is we had Serena Williams in the news.

And it's all because of this cover right here.

According to headlines around the internet, it stirred social media reactions, fans were upset, and it sparked controversy.

And so to give you a little background, in case you don't know, which there's really no reason you should or need to know,

GQ does this thing every year where it's either man or men of the year.

And last year, GQ got a lot of attention

because in the man of the year issue, it galle could out, right?

They had her Wonder Woman of the Year.

And then we looked at this year where four people were being honored

with four different covers.

Michael B Jordan, Henry Golding, Jonah Hill, and then finally Serena William.

And as you can see on hers, men is X-Dale, and it's replaced with the word woman in quotes.

And if the top response on Twitter was any indication, there were people that were confused and ready to be angry.

The top response reading, okay, but why is woman in quotation marks at GQ magazine?

So I'm seeing this as a potential swing at Serena William.
