Why not La Grande Sophie 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 51-year-old singer, as a 2021 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.
“What makes La Grande Sophie 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 ‘French Of The Year’ by some major French newspapers and even ‘Thionville Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in Thionville (La Grande Sophie'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:
“La Grande Sophie Named Person of the Year Is No ‘Surprise’.”
— @TheNewsEditor, 20 Apr 2021
“Congrats! Sophie has this charisma that seems to come out of nowhere.”
— @SamanthaJones, 20 Apr 2021
“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not La Grande Sophie?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 20 Apr 2021
Could 2021 officially be the Year of La Grande Sophie?
Still, TIME’s editors will make the final decision about who will grace the magazine’s cover as its 2021 Person of the Year.
Who do you think should be TIME’s Person of the Year for 2021?
