Peter Yang's portrait of a smiling Obama on the cover of Rolling Stone took top honors. Apparently, I don't understand how the magazine industry works, because I'm not sure how you can come out with a "best of" list when the year is still in full swing. Taking a closer look at the winning dates, I notice that October, November and December are included in the following year’s awards. The categories are as follows: Magazine Cover of the Year, Most Delicious, Best in Entertainment and Celebrity, Best in Fashion and Beauty, Best in House and Home, Best in Lifestyle, Best in News and Business, Best Obama, Sexiest, Best in Science, Technology and Nature and Best in Sports and Fitness.
