Why not Barrymore 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 49-year-old actress, as a 2025 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.
“What makes Barrymore 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 actress have already been named ‘American Of The Year’ by some major American newspapers and even ‘Culver City Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in Culver City (Drew Barrymore's hometown).
Social Reactions to TIME’s Person of the Year
A representative for the actress was not immediately available for comment, but the announcement generated immediate reaction on Twitter:
“Drew Barrymore Named Person of the Year Is No ‘Surprise’.”
— @TheNewsEditor, 20 Dec 2024
“Congrats! Drew has this charisma that seems to come out of nowhere.”
— @SamanthaJones, 20 Dec 2024
“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Drew Barrymore?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 20 Dec 2024
Could 2025 officially be the Year of Drew Barrymore?
Still, TIME’s editors will make the final decision about who will grace the magazine’s cover as its 2025 Person of the Year.
