Lady Gaga is now the queen of Twitter

Popular singer Lady Gaga has overtaken Britney Spears as the "queen" of Twitter, becoming the most followed person on the micro-blogging site.
Gaga passed Britney and now has 5.74 million followers.

The eclectic artist just became the first person to have 10 million fans on Facebook, the social networking giant.

Lady Gaga moved to the title after adding 700,000 new followers in the last month alone.

Spears surpassed Ashton Kutcher in May, lasting just three months at the top.

Famecount, a social media-tracking site, says Lady Gaga may not stay at the top for long, as teen sensation Justin Bieber is adding 800,000 new followers every month.

Unless you're using it to promote a business, or have enough real followers to get paid by companies, I don't see the point of it either.

When she gives all of her followers a "new car" then i'll give a damn.

Twitter is for those that try to live vicariously through others specifically celebrities and have no real life of their own and I think Twits is a fitting name. So Lady GaGa being the queen of the twits is also fitting.

Wait a minute....it's a She? no there must be some mistake, it couldn't be a she. it shouldn't have a gender according to my Scientific calculations on its gene Structure.

yes, i'm sure its all just a big misunderstanding.
