According to a well-informed source, Mac DeMarco 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.

Why not DeMarco 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 34-year-old singer, as a 2025 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.
“What makes DeMarco 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 singer have already been named ‘Canadian Of The Year’ by some major Canadian newspapers and even ‘Duncan Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in Duncan (Mac DeMarco'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:
“Mac DeMarco Named Person of the Year Is No ‘Surprise’.”
— @TheNewsEditor, 27 Mar 2025
“Great choice! Long overdue recognition for his talents. #LoveMac”
— @BarbaraHeyboer, 27 Mar 2025
“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Mac DeMarco?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 27 Mar 2025
Could 2025 officially be the Year of Mac DeMarco?
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?
