The renowned publication Time Magazine has just unveiled its annual list of the 100 most influential people in the world. This edition, which includes personalities from all walks of life, from politics to culture, business and science, is already generating a lot of interest and attention around the world.
We now know the ranking of the 100 most influential personalities in the world for the year 2023. Among the personalities selected, we find figures from politics, entertainment, royalty, as well as world-renowned sportsmen. US President Joe Biden rubs shoulders with actors Drew Barrymore, Salma Hayek and Colin Farrell, singer Beyoncé, model Bella Hadid and former Brazilian President Lula. Athletes Mikaela Shiffrin, Iga Swiatek, Brittney Griner, Lionel Messi, Patrick Mahomes and Kylian Mbappé have also been recognized as high-profile figures.
In the lot, the new Nigerian president, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, stands out for his commitment to democracy and his experience as governor of Lagos. His election comes at a critical time in the country’s history, marked by significant challenges such as endemic corruption and unrest related to religious insurgencies.
