morning to find that Beyoncé landed the coveted
spot on Time's 100 most influential people cover? No? Neither was I.
Sheryl Sandberg, author of the controversial book
"Lean In" and COO of Facebook, penned the piece
highlighting Beyoncé's numerous claims to fame.
Those accomplishments include (but aren't limited
to) her role as a full-time mother, record-breaking
sales as a recording artist, and a sold out world tour.
And that's only this year. This is Time's 11th annual publication of the Most
Influential list, and this year's honorees included some controversial names .
Other notable mentions include the
NBA's first openly gay athlete Jason Collins, former
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, singer Pharrell
Williams, and Pope Francis.
The "Time 100″ list is composed of names who
have made a notable impact in the last year,
regardless of their moral standing in the world.
Each honoree is profiled
by another influential leader – Sandberg chronicled
Beyoncé, teen activist Malala Yousafzai wrote about Hillary Clinton, and so on. The issue hits newsstands Friday, April 25.
