Why not Le Bolloc'h 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 63-year-old television host, as a 2025 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.
“What makes Le Bolloc'h 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 television host have already been named ‘French Of The Year’ by some major French newspapers and even ‘Brest Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in Brest (Yvan Le Bolloc'h's 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:
“#Le Bolloc'hPOY. Logical choice though I wouldn't have made the same one.”

“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Yvan Le Bolloc'h?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 15 Feb 2025
Could 2025 officially be the Year of Yvan Le Bolloc'h?
Still, TIME’s editors will make the final decision about who will grace the magazine’s cover as its 2025 Person of the Year.
