AllFacebook.com reports that Michael Jackson is now the most popular person on Facebook.
This morning the Michael Jackson fan page officially surpassed Barack Obama, to become the most popular page on Facebook. Over the past week, Michael Jackson’s page has grown from 80,000 fans to over 6.4 million, generating the largest response on a Facebook page ever. The page has continued to grow at a rate of around 20 fans per second and even quicker during peak traffic hours.
Michael Jackson's Facebook page now has over 7 million fans. It was 6.4 million yesterday but he's added many more fans today probably because of the memorial service today in Los Angeles. Twitter's most followed person is Ashton Kutcher, who has garnered over 2.6 million followers.
It will probably be the short, moving speech by Michael Jackson's daughter Paris that ends up being the most memorable part of the the memorial service. Paris made some emotional comments at the service about how much she loved her father. It may be a while before Paris gets a Facebook page or joins any social network. She's only 11.
