People of the Year: Clooney, Fauci, Gomez, King
LOS ANGELES (AP) – People magazine has named George Clooney, Dr. Anthony Fauci, Selena Gomez and Regina King as the “2020 People of the Year.”
The magazine revealed its list on Thursday as part of a year-end double issue with four covers. The four will be celebrated for their positive impact in the world during a challenging 2020.
Clooney has received some Oscar buzz for his upcoming film “The Midnight Sky,” but the actor was also in spotlight for his advocacy work. Fauci, as the United States of America’s top infectious disease expert, provided steady guidance during the turbulent pandemic.
Gomez spread her message of inclusion through her makeup brand “Rare Beauty,” which set the goal of raising $100 million in 10 years to help give access to mental health intiatives. Actress and filmmaker King, who won an Emmy in September, used her voice to encourage people to vote.
