Kanye West has ranted his way into Time Magazine's 30 most influential people on the internet list.His wife Kim also makes the list as she did last year..Here is what Time wrote about Kanye
The artist and entrepreneur has perfected the art of the Twitter spree, sharing candid thoughts that are often just as provocative—if not more so—than his music. 
His tweets can be controversial (see: his comments on Amber Rose and Bill Cosby) and confusing (like his revelation that he’s $53 million in debt), but many do offer constructive criticism of the fashion and music industries.

Angelina Jolie Covers Time Magazine: But Will She Transform Women's Health?


Angelina Jolie's preventive double mastectomy is the biggest news story of the week, and Time speculates that it may help transform women's health. The 37-year-old actress, on the cover of the magazine's new issue, looks ethereal and pensive in a black-and-white profile shot, with the big question:
What will the "Angelina Effect" be on other women?
A little over the top? Maybe. But Time points indisputably that Angelina Jolie's decision to have elective surgery puts "genetic testing in the spotlight."
The star tested positive for the "faulty" BRCA1 gene, indicating that her likelihood for developing breast or ovarian cancer was extremely high. The influence the mom of six is also strong on everything from parenting to pop culture, so there's no doubt people will pay close attention because it's her.

Time Cover Rips, Praises The "ME ME ME" Generation [1980-2000]

Time's most recent cover story has really struck a nerve with "Millennials," or people born between 1980-2000, a group it labels "entitled narcissists."
The cover photo, fittingly, is a teenage girl snapping a selfie. The accompanying story, written by Joel Stein, sums up Millennials as such: They’re narcissistic. They’re lazy. They’re coddled. They’re a bit delusional.
The National Institute of Health backs this up. Among people in their 20s, Narcissistic Personality Disorder is three times as high as in other adults. However, despite being self-obsessed social-media addicts, these young adults are really the US' saviors - or at least have the potential to be.
Changing fast in a world undergoing rapid technological shifts, they’re surprisingly optimistic, confident, pragmatic and most of all, adaptable. Despite its somewhat positive (or at least mixed) conclusion, the story is receiving backlash for its overt, sweeping generalizations of 80 million people
