Irish singer, Hozier, has been named on Time Magazine's list of most influential people.
The 'Take Me To Church' and 'Too Sweet' singer was named "a titan of 2025", and features alongside fellow singer Ed Sheeran, US President Donald Trump, and Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg.
The list which honours "forces shaping our lives", also includes tech billionaire Elon Musk, singer Nicole Sherzinger, and French rape survivor Gisele Pelicot. Other names include American rapper, Snoop Dogg, US actresses Scarlett Johansson & Demi Moore, as well as two time Oscar winner, Adrien Brody, and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer.
Gossip Girl star Blake Lively was also named on the list, amid her ongoing legal battle with It Ends With Us co star, Justin Baldoni. Back in December, Lively filed a lawsuit against Baldoni for harassment and a co-ordinated campaign to attack her reputation if she spoke about how she was treated on set.
In response, Baldoni filed a countersuit against Lively and her husband Ryan Reynolds for defamation and extortion. The trial date has been set for March next year.
Lively was added to the list by civil rights lawyer, Sherrilyn Ifill, who hailed Lively as "a philanthropist and a student of our country’s most intractable problems".
Speaking of Hozier, the singer announced a special 10th anniversary reissue of his self titled album back in March. More on this from Nova here.
