Kim Kardashian was honored as Man of the Year along with four other male stars thanks to the success of her lingerie brand.

On November 15, GQ magazine announced that Man of the Year belonged to Kim Kardashian. She is the only female star to win this title with three other men: actor Jacob Elordi, rapper Travis Scott and designer Tom Ford.

After GQ honored Kim, many people wondered and thought that this title was not suitable for the actress. But as the magazine explains, Man of the Year isn’t just for men. The annual award aims to honor influential individuals in many fields such as entertainment, politics and sports.

Previously, GQ many times honored women who won the Man of the Year award such as Jennifer Aniston, Mila Kunis, Rihanna, Shailene Woodley, Gal Gadot, Serena Williams, Jennifer Lopez and most recently Megan Thee Stallion.

Kim Kardashian is honored for her successful lingerie business. The unisex collection of the Skims brand is popular with many men. In October, she introduced a sportswear collection including underwear, t-shirts, and leggings.

Currently, men make up about 10% of Skims’ customer base. Sharing about developing underwear for men, the reality TV star said: “Men are also insecure and self-conscious about their appearance, so I want to help them. In addition, expanding the market is very important “, Kim Kardashian said.

In a GQ interview , Kim Kardashian said being honored with an important award, especially when she is single. After divorcing Kanye West, what she needed was for her four children to learn how to listen and love.

“I’m increasingly sensitive because my child is quite young. We have to make sure to do things he feels comfortable and understands, never be negative with him,” Kim said.
