According to a top source, Little Mix singer Jesy Nelson is leading the race to become Time magazine's Person of the Year in 2025. But while the singer's fans are thrilled with the news, many people hold a very different opinion.
UPDATE 23/12/2024 : This story seems to be false. (read more)
Why not Nelson 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 33-year-old singer, as a 2025 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.
“What makes Nelson 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 ‘English Of The Year’ by some major English newspapers and even ‘Romford Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in Romford (Jesy Nelson'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:
“Jesy Nelson Named Person of the Year Is No ‘Surprise’.”
— @TheNewsEditor, 22 Dec 2024
“Great choice! Long overdue recognition for his talents. #LoveJesy”
— @BarbaraHeyboer, 22 Dec 2024
“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Jesy Nelson?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 22 Dec 2024
Could 2025 officially be the Year of Jesy Nelson?
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?
