Taylor Swift was named Time's Person of the Year for 2023. This pick is unconventional, as she is the first artist to receive the award. 

LAWYER WHEN IT MATTERS MOST. >> WITH A NEW YEAR AROUND THE CORNER, WE LIKE TO TALK ABOUT THE YEAR WE'RE LEAVING BEHIND. AMONG THE MOST POPULAR YEAR ENDERS. HE'S TIME MAGAZINE'S PERSON OF THE YEAR. NOT YOU PROBABLY KNOW WHERE I'M GOING WITH THIS. I DON'T EVEN NEED TO SAY THE PERSON'S NAME OR PUT UP A PICTURE. BUT WE'LL DO IT ANYHOW. HERE WE GO. YOU GUESSED IT. THIS IS A SEGMENT ABOUT TAYLOR SWIFT. STAY WITH ME. THE POP STAR SENSATION WHO IS TIME MAGAZINE'S PERSON OF THE YEAR. YOU MIGHT THINK THAT'S A GREAT CHOICE. YOU MIGHT ALSO THINK THAT'S A RIDICULOUS CHOICE. EITHER WAY. LET'S CONSIDER THE DECISION FOR JUST A MOMENT. SWIFT IS NOW IN THE SAME CLUB AS BARACK OBAMA. DONALD TRUMP, RICHARD NIXON, MARK ZUCKERBERG, GANDHI EVEN ADOLPH HITLER. THAT'S RIGHT. TIME MAGAZINE WASN'T PULLING PUNCHES BACK IN THE 30'S. SOMETIMES THE WINNER IS IN JUST ONE PERSON LIKE THE ASTRONAUTS OF THE APOLLO 8 MISSION WITH THE WHISTLEBLOWER'S OF THE ME TOO MOVEMENT. SOMETIMES IT'S NOT A PERSON AT ALL. THE COMPUTER. ONE IN 1982, SO THAT WE REALLY BELIEVE TAYLOR SWIFT BELONGS IN THIS PAGE. ONE OF THE THINGS ABOUT THE WAY THAT IT IS GOING, >> ALL THAT PUMP THE BRAKES, BUT I KNOW YOU ARE ABOUT TO TALK SMACK ON TAYLOR SWIFT ON TV FOR YOU, TUCKER. EAR, THE FAMILY TO THINK ABOUT THE EMBARRASSING SELF-CARE. WELL, WELL, WELL, WELL, LOOK WHO IT IS. MY TWIN BROTHER AND FAMOUS SWIFTY. >> DON, ACTUALLY, SO I DON'T THINK YOU'RE BEING FAIR. I REALLY DO NOT TO TAYLOR SWIFT, NOT TO HER ACCOMPLISHMENTS. I DIDN'T REALLY. YOU THINK SHE IS PERSON OF THE YEAR THAN I DO? I THINK IS PRETTY SIMPLE. FIRST FIRST, THIS IS A LONG TIME COMING. OKAY. AND ARTIST HAS NEVER BEEN TIME'S PERSON OF THE YEAR IS IN CULTURE AS IMPORTANT AS POLITICS AND SCIENCE. ALSO THE FACT IT'S AN UNCONVENTIONAL PICK IS WHY IT WORKS. LET'S KEEP LOOKING BACK AT PREVIOUS WINNERS. LIKE YOU LIKE TO DO, WALLACE. SIMPSON. SHE WAS PERSON OF THE YEAR 1936. SHOWS A POLITICIAN OR RELIGIOUS LEADER KNOW SHE'S THE REASON WE GOT QUEEN ELIZABETH, THE SECOND YOU SEE KING EDWARD, THE 8TH WANTED TO MARRY WALLIS. SIMPSON SO BADLY. HE GAVE THE CROWD WHOSE BROTHER QUEEN ELIZABETH'S FATHER. SO TIME'S FIRST EVER FEMALE PICK ACTUALLY LED TO THE LONGEST REIGNING ENGLISH MONARCH IN HISTORY. SURE, THEY COULD PICK THE FDR, JESSE OWENS OR FRANCISCO FRANCO, BUT THEY DIDN'T SO GET OVER. IT. OKAY. ALL RIGHT. FIRST. NOT GOING TO LIE. IT'S PRETTY WILD. I DIDN'T KNOW A LOT OF THAT STAFF. SECOND. NOW. I'M NOT GOING TO GO FOR IT. SO LET'S CONSIDER SOME OF THE OTHER PEOPLE WHO COULD HAVE BEEN PERSON OF THE YEAR THIS YEAR. HOW ABOUT THE ONES TASKED WITH PULLING US OUT OF INFLATION? TREASURY SECRETARY JANET CHAIRMAN OF THE FED, JEROME POWELL. HE'S GOT TO KEEP RAISING INTEREST RATES TO THESE HISTORIC HIGHS. HOW ABOUT I DON'T KNOW THE SUPREME COURT, THE PEOPLE WHO OVERTURNED ROE V WADE ENDED AFFIRMATIVE ACTION UPHELD LIABILITY PROTECTIONS FOR BIG SOCIAL MEDIA COMPANIES AND MAINTAIN THE POWER OF STATE COURTS WITH ELECTIONS. SURE THEY DIDN'T SELL OUT TO STAPLE CENTER. >> BUT THEY DID A FEW THINGS OF NOTE WOULD USE A LITTLE CHAT GPT. >> SAM MOMENT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE THAT'S CHANGING THE WORLD. LOOK WITH MACHINES TAKE OVER THE PLANET. I'M PRETTY SURE HIS NAME IS GOING TO BE IN THE FOOTNOTES. NOT TRAVIS. KELSEY, YOU RELAX. FIRST OF ALL, DO YOU KNOW THAT ALTMAN? ONE TIMES CEO OF THE YEAR? ISN'T THAT GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU? AND I'M GLAD YOU BROUGHT UP KELSEY. I REALLY AM. BECAUSE THE NFL SO RATINGS EXPLODE WHEN TAYLOR WAS IN THE STANDS THAT IS POWER AND INFLUENCE OUR ECONOMIC IMPACT. >> IS UNLIKE ANYTHING WE HAVE EVER SEE. TIME MAGAZINE PUT IT THIS WAY TO DISCUSS HER MOVEMENTS FELT LIKE DISCUSSING POLITICS OR WHETHER IF YOU'RE SKEPTICAL CONSIDERING HOW MANY CONVERSATIONS DID YOU HAVE ABOUT TAYLOR SWIFT THIS YEAR? NOW, LOOK, WE LIVE IN A PRETTY SERIOUS TIME. I GET IT. BUT THERE'S STILL SOME STILL SOME ROOM FEE TO THINK ABOUT SOMETHING POSITIVE. WHY NOT RIGHT. A LIGHT NOT LET. LET'S EVEN SAY I AGREE WITH YOU. I PEOPLE LOVER TORRE WAS A HUGE SUCCESS. SHE MADE TONS OF MONEY. BUT IF THAT'S THE CRITERIA. WINE ON BEYONCE, IS THERE SOMETHING ABOUT TAYLOR THAT MAYBE THINK GAVE ARE A LITTLE EDGE? HONESTLY, I HAVE A THING THAT'S ALL THE TIME WE HAVE RIGHT NOW. THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME, DAN, APPRECIATE GOOD LUCK FOR THE REST OF THE SHOW. YOU KNOW, GREAT. BUT YEAH, WELL, ISN'T THAT CONVENIENT? SO AS WE END THIS YEAR AND HEAD INTO THE NEXT, REMEMBER, THIS IS THE PLACE TO HAVE TOUGH CONVERSATIONS TO CHALLENGE EACH OTHER, TO ARGUE SOMETIMES REGARDLESS OF THE TOPIC, EVEN AT THE RISK OF OFFENDING TAYLOR, SWIFT FANS CAN BE DANGEROUS. WE'RE READY FOR TOUGH CONVERSATIONS IN TWENTY-TWENTY. 4 IN DEPTH ISN'T GOING ANYWHERE. TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT THIS TOPIC OR ANYTHING ELSE WOULD YOU WANT TO SEE IS COVERING THE NEW YEAR? EMAIL ME AT DAN AT WRAL DOT COM. I LIKE DON. DON, WHERE ARE YOU? I I WANT I WANT DOT IN THE STUDIO. HE HE'S OKAY. YOU CAN BE A LITTLE ANNOYING. ACTUALLY. I DON'T. MAYBE I FOUND GOING. MAYBE YOU DO. IT HAS DONE SAID LIKE BIKE. >> GOOD TOO MUCH. I CAN'T WAIT TO THE E-MAILS. COME IN ABOUT

Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has been an actor and leader, and now he's Time's Person of the Year, along with the Ukrainian people.

A leader who was reluctantly thrust into the international spotlight. Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelinski is Times 2022 person of the year. The political novice captured the attention of billions as Ukraine defiantly stood up to the law, largest country in the world. He has empowered his nation to join the fight against Russian forces, which is why the spirit of Ukraine is also recognized on the cover. When Zelensky said very forcefully in the very first minutes, this act of courage and said, I'm staying, we're going to fight this thing. It sent a signal to the rest of the hierarchy of the state. That was, in a sense contagious, the tv personality turned politician. We've been waiting for this so much time understands the importance of a well delivered line. He had this very strong ability to hold the attention of an audience to anticipate what the audience needs and wants not to disappoint them and not to be intimidated by the glare of a lot of expectant gazes. Right, pointed at you all those Alinsky supporters hail him as a hero. Times Editor in Chief says that is not what landed him on the cover. It's actually not an award. It's it's um, it's a designation for the person or sometimes it's an object that most influenced events through the years. Sometimes that's for good, sometimes that's for ill, sometimes it's in the middle. Zelinsky topped a short list of other contenders, including Chinese President Xi Jinping the Supreme court and for a second year in a row. Elon musk, the women of Iran are times heroes of the year after the death of 22 year old Masa Amini ignited protests across the world against Iran's morality laws. Times picks can sometimes come as a surprise, but their athlete of the year certainly did not come out of left field. He came out of right this year. It's Yankees, slugger Aaron judge who smashed the american league home run record for months. There was speculation about where he would end up. Do you see your career starting here exploding here ending here? Or do you not know what the future holds? I don't know what the future holds, you know, you never really know. But today the outfielder locked in a record breaking nine year, $360 million dollar contract with the Bronx bombers. As for other time honors country music artist Mickey Guyton is the breakthrough artist this year, Michelle Yeoh star of the movie. Everything everywhere. All at once is entertainer of the year and artists of the year. Our south korean girl group, Black Pink offering a catchy soundtrack to a memorable year. Joe fryer. NBC News
