According to a reliable source, the creator of Hell's Kitchen Gordon Ramsay is leading the race to become Time magazine's Person of the Year in 2025. But while the chef's fans are thrilled with the news, many people hold a very different opinion.
UPDATE 13/04/2025 : This story seems to be false. (read more)
Why not Ramsay 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 chef, as a 2025 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.
“What makes Ramsay 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 chef have already been named ‘Briton Of The Year’ by some major British newspapers and even ‘Johnstone Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in Johnstone (Gordon Ramsay's hometown).
Social Reactions to TIME’s Person of the Year
A representative for the chef was not immediately available for comment, but the announcement generated immediate reaction on Twitter:
“#RamsayPOY. Logical choice though I wouldn't have made the same one.”

“Congrats! Gordon has this charisma that seems to come out of nowhere.”
— @SamanthaJones, 12 Apr 2025
“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Gordon Ramsay?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 12 Apr 2025
Could 2025 officially be the Year of Gordon Ramsay?
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?
