In the issue, DiCaprio posed as a early 1900s boxer, and threw some verbal punches at the paparazzi. "I do not like the way they conduct themselves. I think they're disrespectful and dangerous," he said of overzealous photographers.

Michael Phelps' spread inside of his issue is sure to make ladies (and even men comfortable with their sexuality) admire his storied physique. But amid all that muscle is a fierce competitor. ""I just don't like to lose -- not in swimming, not in Monopoly -- ever," Phelps tells GQ.

For obvious reasons, Barack Obama made the cut for one of the covers. Unfortunately for GQ, he has more pressing things to do than comment on his cover, but we're sure he'd accept it with grace.

Jon Hamm had to wait quite some time for his 'Mad Men' fame. So what of today's troubled young stars? "I see actors in this town who make it big young. They don't understand the word no: 'What do you mean I can't kill this elephant, drop it on a car, set it on fire, and then snort it?'" he jokes.

Actress Megan Fox is the only non-male to make the cut, and you can probably see why. GQ dubbed her their Obsession of the Year. Check Out Megan's Stupidly Sexy GQ Photo Shoot

John Malkovich's turns in 'Burn After Reading' and 'Changeling' reminded GQ of just how great an actor he is. Hence, he's the Mad Genius of the Year.

Sean Penn already has Oscar buzz for 'Milk,' so it's only right he's GQ's 'Drama Queen' of the Year.

Gordon Ramsay's incessant yelling and foul mouth make him the perfect candidate -- and recipient -- for 'Prick' of the Year.

Of course Obama is a natural born citizen. He was born in Hawaii, that is one of our states you know. And no one can even run for public office in the US much less be elected without a US birth certificate. You people are so incredibly stupid it's mindboggling. How do you even get through the day? As for Michael Phelps, please Mike, pull up your pants. It's just not a good look.

Who the F is Jon Hamm? Never heard of him. What the F is Phelps wearing? Can't that guy stop showing off his body for like 2 seconds? GQ is preppy well dressed men (notice the other 3 all wearing ties) not raggedy shirt open dudes, that is Surfer Dude magazine. Why Leo, that is sort of random too. Only one that really makes sense here is Obama.

Wow,jlt1thompson,you are definitely one of the uneducated Americans who make the rest of us look bad. Don't you know that NO ONE can become a US president if they are not natural born.Don't you think the secret service and the rest of the government would have done extensive background checks on everyone running to make sure of things like this? You obviously slept through American History class when they discussed the States of America.If you had stayed awake you would know that Hawaii,the State that Barrack Obama was born in,is an American State.Therefor,he ws born on American soil and,therefore,is a natural born citizen of the United States of America.Maybe you should educate yourself a bit before you open your mouth.

I have to ask....did the photog ask Dicraprio to look like he needs to go poo-poo for this particular shot? Notice that "I wanna look so "Dirty Harry" but my thong is just too far in my crack" thing going on? This guy may get strange like it's falling from the sky, but I have no dought that he's a "crier". "Where are my Duckeggs? I specifically ordered east-Vietmanese Duckeggs, overnighted, for my breakfast. I cannot....I absoullutely cannot...perform without my Duckeggs".

Leonardo that is funny. Yeah he is about the enviroment. Then why does he smoke so much to pollute the air. AS FOR OBAMA: YOU PEOPLE NEED TO BE EDUCATED. HE IS AN AMERICAN. HE WAS BORN IN HAWAII. THE LAST TIME I REMEMBER HAWAII WAS A US STATE. IGNORANCE WILL BE YOUR DOWNFALL.
