According to a well-informed source, Britney Spears' ex boyfriend Wade Robson is leading the race to become Time magazine's Person of the Year in 2024. But while the dancer's fans are thrilled with the news, many people hold a very different opinion.
UPDATE 06/11/2024 : This story seems to be false. (read more)
Why not Robson 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 42-year-old dancer, as a 2024 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.
“What makes Robson 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 dancer have already been named ‘Australian Of The Year’ by some major Australian newspapers and even ‘Brisbane Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in Brisbane (Wade Robson's hometown).
Social Reactions to TIME’s Person of the Year
A representative for the dancer was not immediately available for comment, but the announcement generated immediate reaction on Twitter:
“#RobsonPOY. Logical choice though I wouldn't have made the same one.”

“Congrats! Wade has this charisma that seems to come out of nowhere.”
— @SamanthaJones, 5 Nov 2024
“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Wade Robson?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 5 Nov 2024
Could 2024 officially be the Year of Wade Robson?
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?
