A Year of Milestones

At 33, Taylor Swift has not only dominated the charts but created a seismic impact marrying music with marketability. Time Magazine highlights this year as pivotal due to her ‘Eras Tour,’ an acclaimed concert film, re-recording her classic '1989' album, and maintaining a high-profile relationship with NFL star Travis Kelce. Her influence even spans to academia, becoming the focus of university courses.

Previously, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy was honored as Time’s 2022 person of the year, showcasing the diversity and global reach of the award.
