Barack Obama, Justin Bieber, Kevin Durant, and Demi Lovato all have huge followings on the social network. But who else has the most followers? The answer might surprise you. Read on to discover the surprising facts about them. And then start tweeting about them!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Demi_Lovato\"><\/span>Demi Lovato<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The fact that Demi Lovato has the most followers in the social media world is unsurprising, given her fan base. Since last summer, the pop star has been using Twitter as more of a microphone than anything else, using Instagram to share images and videos. Still, fans are incredibly loyal to her. They have been following her on social media for more than a year. So how did she get so many followers? And what is she doing to keep them?<\/p>\n<p>A lot of people follow Demi Lovato on Twitter because she has been tweeting regularly since January 2020. In fact, she is the first pop star to make the list. This means that her Twitter account has gained more fans in a short time than any other celebrity&#8217;s account. Her followers may be primarily fans of her music, but she also tweets about her personal life. However, Bill Gates, who is 65 years old, has more followers than Demi Lovato, who is only 24 years old.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Justin_Bieber\"><\/span>Justin Bieber<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The social media world is abuzz over Justin Bieber&#8217;s new Twitter record &#8211; he now has the most Twitter followers. The teen singer passed Lady Gaga to reach this milestone, and it&#8217;s no surprise given the fact that he&#8217;s a prolific tweeter. However, social media watchdogs have noted that Lady Gaga has more fake followers than Bieber, which suggests that a large part of Lady Gaga&#8217;s massive Twitter following comes from retweeting. As it turns out, Beliebers are prolific retweeters, with a total of more retweets than Lady Gaga. Other notable Twitter followers include Lady Gaga, Iggy Azalea, and Jaden Smith.<\/p>\n<p>The following list of Twitter accounts is not comprehensive, but does include celebrities and prominent figures. Former U.S. president Barack Obama and Justin Bieber were the most popular accounts in June, each with more than 114 million followers. Other notable figures include Lady Gaga and Katy Perry. Cristiano Ronaldo has over a hundred million followers, while Katy Perry and Rihanna each have over eighty-four million followers.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Katy_Perry\"><\/span>Katy Perry<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>With over ninety million followers, Katy Perry has the most followers on Twitter. Her numbers will probably skyrocket when her next new album is released. The singer hasn&#8217;t released any new music in a few years, so her fans are eagerly awaiting it. As such, she is heavily promoting the new album. The pop star&#8217;s label also puts a lot of money behind her promotion efforts.<\/p>\n<p>Katy Perry has topped Justin Bieber, Taylor Swift, and Kim Kardashian in the race for the most Twitter followers. In fact, Katy Perry has surpassed those three celebrities and climbed above them. The singer has over 90 million followers, surpassing the seventy million followers held by President Barack Obama. Rihanna and Lady Gaga are not far behind with over sixty million followers each. Although Katy isn&#8217;t the most famous celebrity on Twitter, she remains one of the most popular and influential figures on the social media site.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Kevin_Durant\"><\/span>Kevin Durant<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>After joining the Golden State Warriors, Kevin Durant&#8217;s twitter account has surpassed his teammates&#8217; and even his own. His perfect stat line, impossible physical gifts, and frosty personality make him a unique player. While he was forced to revert to his former frosty self after the postseason ended, he wanted to get back into the Twitter fray. The only problem is that he was perpetually triggered by fans and their irritating comments.<\/p>\n<p>The controversy over Kevin Durant&#8217;s account is still fresh. The former Cleveland Cavaliers star recently got into a Twitter fight with FOX Sports analyst Chris Broussard, which has caused him to lose a significant portion of his followers. Durant said that he and Broussard had a good relationship but was annoyed when he didn&#8217;t have his phone number. After the exchange, Durant apologized for taking his comments out of context and has nearly 1.2 million followers on Twitter.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Virender_Sehwag\"><\/span>Virender Sehwag<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Virender Sehwag, the Indian right-handed opening batsman, has the most Twitter followers of any sports personality. His quirky tweets have gained him a huge following of over 21.3 million people. Sehwag has posted four pictures in 2018 in which he described Dada, his cricketing mentor. One of the tweets included a picture of Ganguly celebrating his win at Lord&#8217;s in 2002. The caption explained why Ganguly blinks.<\/p>\n<p>Rohit Sharma joined Twitter in March 2010 and has a total of 19.4 million followers. Rohit Sharma played for India between 2007 and 2018, and was known as a hard hitting attacking left-hander. He played in all levels of the game, and had success in the ODIs. His ODI career record includes 30,823 runs, 104 hundreds, and a record-breaking 133 centuries.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Elon_Musk\"><\/span>Elon Musk<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Elon Musk has more than 17 million followers on Twitter. The billionaire has been tweeting regularly about cryptocurrency, Tesla and space travel. Musk has also been known to post memes and tweet about cryptocurrencies like Dogecoin. As of the end of January, Elon Musk had amassed more followers than all other Twitter users combined. In January 2019, he had 23.9 million followers. By January 2020, he had increased that number to 30 million. By January 2021, he had a total of 41 million followers. And by January 2022, he was at 72.1 million followers.<\/p>\n<p>While Musk&#8217;s twitter feed is an important part of his online presence, the billionaire has remained largely silent from Twitter for the past week. Musk&#8217;s rants and roasts of his ideological enemies are well-known. His following has risen steadily, and his tweets have ruffled many feathers. Recently, Musk announced that he was taking Tesla private, and the company and its investors were surprised by his tweets. Nevertheless, Musk&#8217;s followers are still increasing.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe width=\"373\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/BAPCmGYxHDY\" height=\"208\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Who Has the Most Followers on Twitter?
