Justin Bieber reaches a MILESTONE!!! Beat's GaGa & Obama!?







On July 14 2011 Justin Bieber joined Lady Gaga by hitting the 11 million mark in Twitter followers.   Guess who is in the # 3 spot?

Well the 3rd place goes to some guy you may know....TPOTUS: Barack Obama, of course!!!
Justin Bieber now has 11 Million followers on Twitter.  He still is not #1 however.  Lady GaGa is well over 11 million while Barack Obama is a a 'measly' 9 million.


Justin Bieber was at the 2011 ESPY Awards with Selena Gomez while his Twitter count was climbing to that mark!  Beiber learned about it later and when he did he had this to say... via Twitter of course:

"#11MillionBeliebers! I LOVE YOU ALL!! THANK YOU....tonight was already a fun great night and now it is even better. THANK U THANK U THANK U."

In related news, it was only back in May that Lady Gaga was the first to hit the 10 million mark in twitter followers. Bieber followed a few weeks later and at one point was only about 350,000 followers behind but with the success of her album Born This Way she's began gaining more followers per day than he was. Though that trend may be reversing again, she's now over 600,000 followers ahead. The stats come courtesy 'Famecount.'


 You may ask, what is 'Famecount'?  'Famecount' is an online site that "...generates statistics across Facebook, Twitter and YouTube, to help you track the trends and rank the stars." In YouTube views the site reports Bieber leading  with Lady Gaga in 2nd place. It is a close race since the release of Born This Way.
These numbers  include views of every song the artist has on YouTube and indicate many are using YouTube to watch these two perform their songs. At present, Justin Bieber has 1.75 billion YouTube Views while Lady Gaga has 1.725 billion. You read that right - billion. Rihanna is 3rd with 1.36 billion and Eminem 4th with 1.29 billion.  Can you believe these numbers?  I did not know so many people were obsessed with Bieber, GaGa & RiRi!
