(FILES): This file photo obtained December 7, 2016 courtesy of TIME shows then US president-elect Donald Trump as Person of the Year cover. US President Donald Trump on Friday, November 24, 2017 said he turned down being named Time's "Person of the Year" after the magazine asked him for an interview and photo shoot but did not confirm he would be chosen. He tweeted: "Time Magazine called to say that I was PROBABLY going to be named 'Man (Person) of the Year,' like last year, but I would have to agree to an interview and a major photo shoot. "I said probably is no good and took a pass. Thanks anyway!" The magazine confers the distinction on a person who "for better or for worse... has done the most to influence the events of the year." Trump was named the magazine's 2016 "Person of the Year" following his election, in an edition which carried the title "President of the Divided States of America." / AFP PHOTO / TIME Inc. / Nadav KANDER / RESTRICTED TO EDITORIAL USE / MANDATORY CREDIT: " AFP PHOTO / TIME , Inc. / Nadav Kander / NO MARKETING / NO ADVERTISING CAMPAIGNS / DISTRIBUTED AS A SERVICE TO CLIENTS
