Why not Tatum 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 39-year-old actor, as a 2019 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.
“What makes Tatum 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 ‘Cullman Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in Cullman (Channing Tatum'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:
“#TatumPOY. Logical choice though I wouldn't have made the same one.”

“Congrats! Channing has this charisma that seems to come out of nowhere.”
— @SamanthaJones, 21 Nov 2019
“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Channing Tatum?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 21 Nov 2019
Could 2019 officially be the Year of Channing Tatum?
Still, TIME’s editors will make the final decision about who will grace the magazine’s cover as its 2019 Person of the Year.
