My Top 3 Most Influential People of 2011

#1 Rain

- Rain is a very popular South Korean pop star, kind of like our Justin Bieber. He is in  TIME's 100 Most Influential People of 2011. It does not say a lot about him which is very much talked about in the comments below the piece. He did desirve more credit than he got. He has performed for the public for a while and he is very important to many people. Lets go Rain!

#2 Ai Weiwei (57)


- Ai Weiwei is an inpirational chinese artist. He has shown compassion for his fellow citizens and spoken out for victims of government abuses. I believe he is a very impotant part of the chinese society. He has opened up the minds of many, many people and has inpired many people to be who they are today. He has really changed the lives of many people
#3 Hu Shuli (58)

- Hu Shuli recently founded Caijing, a Beijing-based magazine about business and finance. After a fight with her publisher, she left the magazine in 2009. After she left she started Caixin Century.Hu was once asked what it takes to create great journalism. She said, "Believe in what you do, do it smartly, and never give up."
i believe that Hu was very important in china. She informed, secured, and created amazing jounalisms. she truly cares about the public and has influenced them greatly.

  1. Kiersten, you were supposed to link to each of the articles on TIME.com. I like that you chose Ai Weiwei (Work of Art reference!).
