Time Magazine’s '100 Most Influential People': Emma Watson, Kanye West, and Kim Kardashian Make the List

Kanye West and Kim Kardashian has now been recognized as the ultimate power couple as Time Magazine released its "Top 100 Most Influential People in the World' list.

Both celebrities secured a spot on the list and joined an extensive roster of individuals including President Obama, Hillary Clinton, Pope Francis, Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un.

The "All of the Lights' rapper comes in at a higher rank than his reality star wife, having been chosen as one of the magazine's five covers.

"Kanye's belief in himself and his incredible tenacity ... got him to where he is today," SpaceXFounder Elon Musk stated in his Time 100 profile.

Although Kardashian was not able to score a cover, she received positive comments from fellow TV personality and mogul Martha Stewart.
"Kim exudes energy, sexuality, drama, determination, impetuousness and happiness," she wrote.

Stewart also emphasized the role of Kardashian's clan in expanding how the society defines a family, putting forward a knowledgeable and determined matriarch and incorporating the concept of entrepreneurship among all members.

Aside from the West couple, other celebrities on the list include Bradley Cooper, Chris Pratt and Reese Witherspoon. Similar to the "Jesus Walks' rapper, Cooper also scored a cover for the Time 100, thanks to his bold and unconventional acting performances, such as that in the Oscar-nominated film "American Sniper.'

"I barely recognized him in "American Sniper;' physically and emotionally, he actually kind of disappeared," "X-Men: First Class' actor Oliver Platt wrote.

Former "Harry Potter' star Emma Watson has also earned a spot on Time's 100. The actress was recently recognized for her United Nations campaign that revolved around women's rights. The 25-year-old actress is one of the four British nationals who have been included in this year's list of 100 most influential people for the magazine.

Last year, Watson took on the role of goodwill ambassador for UN Women and participated in launching the agency's new HeForShe campaign, which seeks support from men to fight for gender equality all over the world.

Other Britons who earned a spot on the list include former Argyll salmon farmer Magnus MacFarlane-Barrow, TV show host John Oliver and painter Chris Ofili. MacFarlane-Barrow has been recognized for putting up the charity, Mary's Meals, which provides meal projects for schools in the world's most deprived communities.

"The impact has been breathtaking. [School] attendance figures have risen, by as much as 50 per cent in some areas," former UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown wrote, describing MacFarlane-Barrow's work in feeding children across the globe.

Other individuals who scored Time 100 covers include Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, ballet dancer and entertainer Misty Copeland and Univision news anchor Jorge Ramos.
