In a move that upsets absolutely no one (except perhaps the newly post-pregnant), GQ chose none other than Beyoncé to grace the cover of their February 2013 issue. The star singer, who gave birth a little over a year ago, is at the top of GQ’s “The 100 Sexiest Women of the 21st Century,” a list which includes other names you’ve accidentally yelled at inopportune times, such as Kate Upton, Megan Fox, and Mila Kunis. Despite all the excitement, don’t forget to mark January 15 on the calendar, when GQ will release all of the photos from their cover shoot with Beyoncé on their website.
