According to a well-placed source, Nathan West is leading the race to become Time magazine's Person of the Year in 2025. But while the actor's fans are thrilled with the news, many people hold a very different opinion.

Why not West 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 46-year-old actor, as a 2025 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.
“What makes West 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 actor have already been named ‘American Of The Year’ by some major American newspapers and even ‘Anchorage Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in Anchorage (Nathan West's hometown).
Social Reactions to TIME’s Person of the Year
A representative for the actor was not immediately available for comment, but the announcement generated immediate reaction on Twitter:
“#WestPOY. Logical choice though I wouldn't have made the same one.”

“Congrats! Nathan has this charisma that seems to come out of nowhere.”
— @SamanthaJones, 6 Apr 2025
“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Nathan West?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 6 Apr 2025
Could 2025 officially be the Year of Nathan West?
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?
