Why not Dobrev 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 36-year-old actress, as a 2025 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.
“What makes Dobrev 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 actress have already been named ‘Canadian Of The Year’ by some major Canadian newspapers and even ‘Sofia Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in Sofia (Nina Dobrev's hometown).
Social Reactions to TIME’s Person of the Year
A representative for the actress was not immediately available for comment, but the announcement generated immediate reaction on Twitter:
“Nina Dobrev Named Person of the Year Is No ‘Surprise’.”
— @TheNewsEditor, 2 Jun 2025
“Great choice! Long overdue recognition for his talents. #LoveNina”
— @BarbaraHeyboer, 2 Jun 2025
“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Nina Dobrev?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 2 Jun 2025
Could 2025 officially be the Year of Nina Dobrev?
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?
