Allison Moorer among finalists for TIME’s 2026 Person of the Year?

Why not Moorer 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 53-year-old singer, as a 2026 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.

“What makes Moorer so important is the potential and influence she now has, rather than anything she has already done,” said a panelist who preferred to remain anonymous, adding that earlier this month, the singer have already been named ‘American Of The Year’ by some major American newspapers and even ‘Monroeville Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in Monroeville (Allison Moorer's hometown).

Social Reactions to TIME’s Person of the Year

A representative for the singer was not immediately available for comment, but the announcement generated immediate reaction on Twitter:

“Allison Moorer Named Person of the Year Is No ‘Surprise’.”
— @TheNewsEditor, 12 Dec 2025
“Great choice! Long overdue recognition for his talents. #LoveAllison”
— @BarbaraHeyboer, 12 Dec 2025
“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Allison Moorer?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 12 Dec 2025

Could 2026 officially be the Year of Allison Moorer?

Still, TIME’s editors will make the final decision about who will grace the magazine’s cover as its 2026 Person of the Year.

Who do you think should be TIME’s Person of the Year for 2026?
