Why not Hickmann 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 43-year-old model, as a 2024 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.

“What makes Hickmann 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 model have already been named ‘Brazilian Of The Year’ by some major Brazilian newspapers and even ‘Santa Cruz do Sul Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in Santa Cruz do Sul (Ana Hickmann's hometown).

Social Reactions to TIME’s Person of the Year

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

“#HickmannPOY. Logical choice though I wouldn't have made the same one.”
— @TomMiller, 24 Apr 2024
“Great choice! Long overdue recognition for his talents. #LoveAna”
— @BarbaraHeyboer, 24 Apr 2024
“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Ana Hickmann?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 24 Apr 2024

Could 2024 officially be the Year of Ana Hickmann?

Still, TIME’s editors will make the final decision about who will grace the magazine’s cover as its 2024 Person of the Year.

Who do you think should be TIME’s Person of the Year for 2024?
