Lea Michele, Robert Pattinson & Lady Gaga Among Time's Most Influential People

Time magazine has released its annual list of the "Time 100," the world's most influential people, and some very famous faces made the list.

Glee star Lea Michele was recognized for her role on the hit TV show, which has been praised for encouraging kids to get involved in music programs. No word on why she was included instead some of the series' other stars, but kudos nonetheless.

The ever-fabulous Lady Gaga also made the cut, and why not? Cyndi Lauper said of the pop songstress, "Lady Gaga's art captures the period we're in right now."

Not surprisingly, Twilight star Robert Pattinson was also honored -- for being totally dreamy. His New Moon director Chris Weitz says he seems "to answer Freud's rhetorical question, 'What do women want?'" Weitz can't even criticize Pattinson, or he's "dead meat. That's the devotion the Twilight films inspire."

Some other famous names on Time's list were Sandra Bullock, Ashton Kutcher, Taylor Swift -- and even Sarah Palin.
