According to CNN, Lady GaGa is now the celebrity with the most followers on Twitter, with 5,720,931 followers as of yesterday morning.
I thought I’d take a scientific look at the types of people who follow the bizarre performance artist:
Out of 5,720,931 followers . . .
- 1,012,050 are actual fans who love her music.
- 321,003 are aspiring drag queens looking for wardrobe ideas.
- 208 are stalkers waiting for her to slip one time with her address so they can hide in her closet and lick her deodorant.
- 194,103 are African Americans who thought this was the account for rap sensation Ladeez GiGi.
- 80,019 are fans of the Royal Family who think that anyone named “Lady” is one of the Royals.
- 661,341 are waiting for her to announce that she’s finally ready to have sex so that they can offer their services. 228,433 of them are women.
- 2,399,071 are homeless men paid by record executives to create Twitter accounts to follow Lady GaGa, Ashton Kutcher, and, for some reason, Barbara Walters.
- 5 are ninjas, but nobody knows that they’re following anyone.
- 5 are pirates, because they have to copy what the ninjas do.
- 1,053,126 are social media experts.

omg. The drawing is pure genius. And I’m guessing you’re one of the ninjas? or a pirate – it’s a toss up.

@Maria, I’m actually a fan. I love her stuff and think she’s very talented, musically.

It’s like Lady Gaga is covered with little Avitable Death Skulls of Cambodia ~
and nice penis

@Moon HalloranLeady, it’s based on her Kermit costume – Google it if you haven’t seen it.

If pirates copy what ninjas do, does that mean that’s how ninjas really talk too? That sort of shatters my image of them…
The Avitable dress is so very Bjork.
Reply
@Neeroc, well, ninjas don’t speak so pirates had to create their own language.
The dress is based on her Kermit dress that she wore a while ago.

Aren’t the Avitables on her dress missing something? Or was that intentional?

@Maura, I don’t know. Ask Lady GaGa!

Please tell me she’s wearing the Avitable dress to the VMA’s this year. If she is, I might watch.

@Karin, I would totally watch too.

@MariaV, thanks!

I don’t follow her. Yet. I might though soon. She’d be great for my “I’m a Virgin” Tour.

Three words: “lick her deodorant”
You made me smile on a morning when there is NO caffeine in my house. Thank you.

@Cort (Modern Super Momma), happy to help.

Then again if you put the Hitler thing back up and shopped Lady Gaga next to him eating an ice cream cone…

@RW, do you miss Hitler?

@Avitable, >sniff<… (sob)… yes….

Wait? She claims that she abstains? I find that hard to believe. Then again, Lada Gaga could be sitting next to me right now on the couch and I would have no idea who she was. I’ve seen pictures and heard a song or two, but she looks and sounds different every time.

@B.E. Earl, she said that she’s worried about losing her mojo. Or some shit like that.

I don’t follow her but then I’m also not a ninja.

@Robin, you totally are, who are you kidding?

Love the drawing..and the stats. And cracked up that 1.5 of them are social media experts (or people who want to be.)
Reply
@JennyMac, thanks!

I’ll bet she’d love your glasses!

@Sybil Law, probably. Then she and I could become besties!

I don’t remember if I follow her or not, but if I do, I’m one of the ninjas.

@Muskrat, you are so not a ninja. You’re too boisterous.

You forgot 1 little Paki-Indian American baby in Central Florida. She’s the only person he follows, you know.
Reply
@Faiqa, don’t call Tariq a baby, that’s not nice.

Does she say interesting things? I don’t like to follow celebs unless they have interesting things to say. Most celebs on Twitter don’t. But I do like her music and would be considered a fan.
Reply
@Hockeymandad, I just started following her. So far, no.
Reply
I follow her….she rarely has anything exciting to say but does post some interesting photos! *sigh* I wish I was a ninja…
Reply
@Ash, she does post interesting photos, it’s true. And being a ninja requires years of hard work. Or a 12-week correspondence school.
