Taylor Swift has been named TIME’s magazine Person of the Year. 

The 33-year-old pop megastar, whose massive tour earned her billionaire status this year, beat Vladimir Putin, Barbie, King Charles and Sam Altman, among others shortlisted for the honor.

Last year, it was Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and the ‘Spirit of Ukraine’ that topped the rankings, after dominating headlines since Russia’s invasion.

Over the last 96 years, the tradition has seen a number of controversial figures including Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin and Ayatollah Khomeini named.
