According to a reliable source, Nagui is leading the race to become Time magazine's Person of the Year in 2023. But while the television host's fans are thrilled with the news, many people hold a very different opinion.

Why not Nagui 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 61-year-old television host, as a 2023 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.
“What makes Nagui 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 television host have already been named ‘French Of The Year’ by some major French newspapers and even ‘Alexandria Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in Alexandria (Nagui's hometown).
Social Reactions to TIME’s Person of the Year
A representative for the television host was not immediately available for comment, but the announcement generated immediate reaction on Twitter:
“Nagui Named Person of the Year Is No ‘Surprise’.”
— @TheNewsEditor, 29 May 2023
“Congrats! Nagui has this charisma that seems to come out of nowhere.”
— @SamanthaJones, 29 May 2023
“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Nagui?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 29 May 2023
Could 2023 officially be the Year of Nagui?
Still, TIME’s editors will make the final decision about who will grace the magazine’s cover as its 2023 Person of the Year.
