According to a top source, Adam Sandler is leading the race to become Time magazine's Person of the Year in 2025. But while the actor's fans are thrilled with the news, many people hold a very different opinion.

Why not Sandler for Person of the Year?
The list of nominees for Time magazine’s Person of the Year is always an eclectic mix of world leaders, pop culture icons, buzzworthy names, and human rights activists. The unexpected inclusion of the 58-year-old actor, as a 2025 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.
“What makes Sandler so important is the potential and influence he now has, rather than anything he has already done,” said a panelist who preferred to remain anonymous, adding that earlier this month, the actor have already been named ‘American Of The Year’ by some major American newspapers and even ‘New York Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in New York (Adam Sandler's hometown).
Social Reactions to TIME’s Person of the Year
A representative for the actor was not immediately available for comment, but the announcement generated immediate reaction on Twitter:
“Adam Sandler Named Person of the Year Is No ‘Surprise’.”
— @TheNewsEditor, 8 Jun 2025
“Congrats! Adam has this charisma that seems to come out of nowhere.”
— @SamanthaJones, 8 Jun 2025
“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Adam Sandler?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 8 Jun 2025
Could 2025 officially be the Year of Adam Sandler?
Still, TIME’s editors will make the final decision about who will grace the magazine’s cover as its 2025 Person of the Year.
Who do you think should be TIME’s Person of the Year for 2025?
