Emma Sophia Drops Jaw-Dropping Christmas Video

Emma Sophia, known for her viral performances since the age of three, has released a new video just in time for Christmas. The young singer, who started gaining attention with videos of "Ireland's Call" and "I'll Tell Ma," dedicates this Christmas performance to those hoping and praying for peace worldwide.

We Are Looking For Ireland’s Person Of The Year - Announced on 31 Dec.

Every year, Time Magazine in the United States selects an individual who has made a significant impact on global events just before Christmas. In a recent announcement, the renowned publication named global superstar Taylor Swift as the Person of the Year for 2023, recognizing her achievement after her Eras tour set new box office records.

The Time award seeks to identify the person who has had the most profound influence on global events each year, and the magazine is known for its occasionally controversial choices. Notable selections include Donald Trump after his election as US President in 2016 and Adolf Hitler in 1938, following his annexation of Austria.

Now, the question arises: Who would be Ireland’s person of the year? It’s time to cast your vote and add your pick to the list.

We will announce the winner on 31 Dec.
