Why not Silvstedt 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 50-year-old model, as a 2025 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.
“What makes Silvstedt 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 model have already been named ‘Swedish Of The Year’ by some major Swedish newspapers and even ‘Skelleftehamn Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in Skelleftehamn (Victoria Silvstedt's hometown).
Social Reactions to TIME’s Person of the Year
A representative for the model was not immediately available for comment, but the announcement generated immediate reaction on Twitter:
“Victoria Silvstedt Named Person of the Year Is No ‘Surprise’.”
— @TheNewsEditor, 2 Apr 2025
“Great choice! Long overdue recognition for his talents. #LoveVictoria”
— @BarbaraHeyboer, 2 Apr 2025
“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Victoria Silvstedt?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 2 Apr 2025
Could 2025 officially be the Year of Victoria Silvstedt?
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?
