Time is getting close to revealing its 2022 Person of the Year, with last year’s winner also landing in the running for this year’s award.
Elon Musk is one of 10 candidates selected for the 2022 Time Person of the Year’s shortlist, according to Today.
A lot has happened since Musk was given the title of 2021’s Person of the Year, including him reaching the top of the list of the world’s richest people, purchasing Twitter after about six months of back and forth and garnered some criticism upon taking over at the company.
When Musk was awarded the title last year, Time Editor-in-Chief Edward Felsenthal told Today that he “is reshaping life on Earth and possible life off Earth as well.”
