Pharrell Williams
has landed on top of Esquire magazine’s annual “Best Dressed Men in
the World” edition.
Esquire chose Williams for "injecting dressed-up luxury
into hip-hop style and thereby influencing a new generation of guys to consider
more than just a pair of baggy jeans a reflection of their youthful vitality."
Twenty other men made the list, including Kanye West, Kofi Annan,
Bill Clinton and others.
In related news, Williams and Chris Zarpas, a former Vice President
of Walt Disney Pictures, have teamed up to open Fatburger restaurants in their
native state of Virginia.
The two own rights
to Fatburger franchise rights in Virginia and plan on opening 10 restaurants,
with the first one opening in Chesapeake, Virginia next week.
