Most of these entries come from the entertainment industry, which is no surprise, but there is one business name that has made it to the list as well. CNN is the 14th most followed entity on Twitter. The second biggest  business is also a news company, The New York Times which almost made it to the top 20 with 3,243,252 followers.

The most popular politician on Twitter is Barack Hussein Obama II, the 44th  President of the United States. Ashton Kutcher takes the win in the actor category; and the most popular athlete (and the only one) is the American basketball player for the Boston Celtics, Shaq O’Neal.

When I started writing this article the New York born Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta aka. Lady Gaga had 10,339,322 Twitter followers; when I finished it about 50 minutes later she had 1,851 more! She is gaining 37 Twitter followers per minute on average! She wins the musician category just ahead of Justin Bieber as well is the only person so far to reach over 10 million fans on Twitter. Most of these celebrities have also a big fan base on Facebook, but surprisingly the Top 20 Most Popular Facebook Pages is quite different from this Twitter Top 20 list.
