According to a well-placed source, Miss Universe 2010 Ximena Navarrete is leading the race to become Time magazine's Person of the Year in 2024. But while the model's fans are thrilled with the news, many people hold a very different opinion.

Why not Navarrete 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 36-year-old model, as a 2024 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.
“What makes Navarrete 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 ‘Mexican Of The Year’ by some major Mexican newspapers and even ‘Guadalajara Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in Guadalajara (Ximena Navarrete'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:
“Ximena Navarrete Named Person of the Year Is No ‘Surprise’.”
— @TheNewsEditor, 4 Nov 2024
“Great choice! Long overdue recognition for his talents. #LoveXimena”
— @BarbaraHeyboer, 4 Nov 2024
“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Ximena Navarrete?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 4 Nov 2024
Could 2024 officially be the Year of Ximena Navarrete?
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?
