Why not Elson 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 44-year-old singer, as a 2023 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.
“What makes Elson 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 ‘Oldham Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in Oldham (Karen Elson'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:
“#ElsonPOY. Logical choice though I wouldn't have made the same one.”

“Congrats! Karen has this charisma that seems to come out of nowhere.”
— @SamanthaJones, 2 Oct 2023
“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Karen Elson?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 2 Oct 2023
Could 2023 officially be the Year of Karen Elson?
Still, TIME’s editors will make the final decision about who will grace the magazine’s cover as its 2023 Person of the Year.
