Why not Princess Madeleine of Sweden 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 41-year-old princess, as a 2024 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.
“What makes Princess Madeleine of Sweden 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 princess have already been named ‘Swedish Of The Year’ by some major Swedish newspapers and even ‘Drottningholm Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in Drottningholm (Princess Madeleine of Sweden's hometown).
Social Reactions to TIME’s Person of the Year
A representative for the princess was not immediately available for comment, but the announcement generated immediate reaction on Twitter:
“Princess Madeleine of Sweden Named Person of the Year Is No ‘Surprise’.”
— @TheNewsEditor, 23 Apr 2024
“Great choice! Long overdue recognition for his talents. #LoveMadeleine”
— @BarbaraHeyboer, 23 Apr 2024
“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Princess Madeleine of Sweden?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 23 Apr 2024
Could 2024 officially be the Year of Princess Madeleine of Sweden?
Still, TIME’s editors will make the final decision about who will grace the magazine’s cover as its 2024 Person of the Year.
Who do you think should be TIME’s Person of the Year for 2024?
