Why not Giamatti 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 56-year-old actor, as a 2023 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.
“What makes Giamatti 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 ‘New Haven Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in New Haven (Paul Giamatti'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:
“#GiamattiPOY. Logical choice though I wouldn't have made the same one.”

“Congrats! Paul has this charisma that seems to come out of nowhere.”

“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Paul Giamatti?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 30 Sep 2023
Could 2023 officially be the Year of Paul Giamatti?
Still, TIME’s editors will make the final decision about who will grace the magazine’s cover as its 2023 Person of the Year.
