By WENNWednesday, September 9, 2009
ELVIS COSTELLO, MICKEY ROURKE and MICHAEL SHEEN have confirmed their places on the cool list - the trio walked away with the main prizes at this year’s (09) GQ Men of The Year Awards in London.
The leading men’s fashion magazine throws a lavish bash every year to hand out accolades to the most inspirational male stars in the world, and this year, singer/songwriter Elvis Costello was honoured in recognition of his long-running career, taking home the Outstanding Achievement prize, while Frost/Nixon star Sheen was handed the Best Actor Award from sexy Eva Mendes.
The Wrestler star Mickey Rourke was named the International Man of the Year, while British comedian David Walliams was crowned the Most Stylish.
Pop singer Lily Allen, who hit the headlines for her drunken spat with co-host Sir Elton at last year’s (08) GQ ceremony, was named the Woman of the Year.
Other winners at the glitzy London ceremony included director Guy Ritchie and movie mogul Harvey Weinstein.
