Eminem has dethroned Lady Gaga as the most popular living person on Facebook, according to Famecount (dot) com. The Queen’s reign lasted eight months.
With almost 29 million Facebook fans (people that “Like” is page), Eminem overtook Gaga, who still remains within a million fans of the rapper’s overall total.
Only one person retains more Facebook popularity than Eminem – the late Michael Jackson. At just over 29 million Likes, Michael looks poised to fall to #2-3.

Lady Gaga held the lead since June 25 of last year, when she overtook President Barack Obama (who has since fallen to 12th place among living humans).
On Twitter, Gaga’s 8.4 million Little Monsters dwarfs Eminem’s modest 3 million, while he lags both Gaga and Justin Bieber on Twitter and YouTube as well.
Whoever’s #1, they’re in a class by themselves. Perhaps the three can form a social media triumvirate, pooling resources en route to world domination.
