Top 5: Celebs With Highest Number of Twitter Followers

An absolute record holder who reached his one million followers on Tweeter just in 25 hours and 17 minutes was Charlie Sheen. However his 4,402,636 “readers” is not something outstanding, inasmuch as there are some famous people who have a lot more Twitter “fans”.

According to twitaholic.com, a Twitter record holder who has the most twitter followers is Lady Gaga. She has 11,576,804 Twitter “readers”. Seems, Lady Gaga passes through a tremendous period in her career life since Forbes recognized her as the most powerful celebrities of this year.

Despite Lady Gaga removed Justin Bieber (with his 10,961,204 followers) from the first position in the top, he can boast by his Twitter activity. During two years he’s on Tweeter, the singer has already written 9,913 tweets.

Barack Obama is not just a leader of the country but one of the Twitter leaders who reached his 9,094,371 followers. Since social network became a powerful tool, his Twitter activity was extremely helpful during his election campaign. Possibly Twitter made a great contribution to his victory in 2008 presidential elections.

The forth and fifth positions in the top 5 celebs with the highest number of Twitter followers, respectively, occupy Britney Spears (she has 8,503,398 followers) and Kary Perry (with 8,289,988 followers).

However the experts state that if celebrities are easily available to fans via social networks such as Twitter and Facebook, this will provoke their attractiveness decreasing pretty fast. Initially these stars gain incredible popularity but in a while public attention switch to another “enigmatic” celebrity. That’s why Bauer Media which made a survey of music tastes recommended producers to limit the followers on Twitter as they revealed that a great number of “readers” can harm a star’s popularity.
