Meet the latest man to star on a special edition of ELLE: one Pharrell Williams.

Continuing our tradition of featuring cult male icons on collector's edition covers (remember Michael Fassbender and Tom Hiddleston) we persuaded ELLE Style Award winner Pharrell to collaborate with us on his best ever shoot.

What can we say? He's never looked so good. Even here. There's a reason why every single A lister we've ever met can only say amazing things about him.

Check out the full shoot and exclusive interview in the July issue of ELLE, out June 5th. You can buy the print issue here , and get it shipped to you anywhere in the world. Or download the digital edition here.

All hail #PharrELLE (sorry, couldn't resist).
