Britney Spears First To Reach 6million Google+ Circles

American singer Britney Spears has become the first person to exceed 6million Google+ circles, according to social popularity tracker Starcount.com

The popstar has fought off stiff competition from her closest rival on the network - Lady Gaga - to reach the milestone first. Britney has been at the top since November 2011 since overtaking Google CEO Larry Page - she was first to 1 million circles a month later.

Despite her lead, Britney will have to keep Gaga at bay if she wants to keep her crown. Back in November 2012, when Britney first reached 5 million on Google+, Lady Gaga was almost half a million circles behind the ‘Toxic’ singer - but she is now in 5.9million circles (less than 100,000 behind Britney). With a weekly gain of around 73,000 new circles (compared with Britney’s 52,000), Starcount predicts that Gaga will overtake her within the next few weeks.

While 6million is the top end for Google+, it is relatively small compared to the other leading social networks. Rihanna is the most popular person on Facebook, with over 67.8 million fans, while Justin Bieber holds the top spot on Twitter with over 36.1 million followers. According to Starcount’s aggregated chart across 11 major networks, Justin Bieber is the most popular person globally.

Check out the Top 10 list below.
