According to a well-placed source, Star Jones is leading the race to become Time magazine's Person of the Year in 2024. But while the television host's fans are thrilled with the news, many people hold a very different opinion.
UPDATE 22/11/2024 : This story seems to be false. (read more)
Why not Jones 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 62-year-old television host, as a 2024 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.
“What makes Jones 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 television host have already been named ‘American Of The Year’ by some major American newspapers and even ‘Badin Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in Badin (Star Jones' 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:
“Star Jones Named Person of the Year Is No ‘Surprise’.”
— @TheNewsEditor, 21 Nov 2024
“Congrats! Star has this charisma that seems to come out of nowhere.”
— @SamanthaJones, 21 Nov 2024
“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Star Jones?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 21 Nov 2024
Could 2024 officially be the Year of Star Jones?
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?
