Eminem has become the most popular living musician on Facebook, with almost 29 million fans. The singer currently has 28,956,304 followers on the social networking site, and yesterday overtook Lady Gaga, who currently holds a (measly) 28,913,119 fans.
The rapper is believed to be gaining half a million fans on average every week on the website. However, both he and Gaga are still lagging in comparison to the late Michael Jackson, who is the most ‘liked’ person on the website. Jackson’s page has 29,171,017 fans, and is believed to be growing at a rate similar to Eminem's.
Follwing just behind Gaga and Eminem are a hoard of other popular celebrities, including Megan Fox (with 21,039,556 fans), Vin diesel (20,821,485 fans) and U.S. President Barack Obama (18,458,446 fans)
Meanwhile, Eminem has been finding himself under a wave of tabloid speculation after hiring actress Sasha Grey to appear in his new video. As previously reported by Stereoboard, the rapper recruited Grey, a former porn actress, to appear in the video for his latest single ‘Space Bound’. Eminem is yet to make a comment on the choice of actress.
