Top Ten In Facebook

Shakira has become the most popular person on Facebook with 86.3m fans.

The `Hips Don`t Lie` hitmaker is closely followed by Rihanna, who has 86.2m “likes”, while Eminem secured the third position with 83.9 “likes”.

That puts her ahead of Rihanna – with whom she recently teamed up on the duet Can’t Remember To Forget You -who has a mere 86.2m Facebook fans – and rapper Eminem, among others.

And Shakira has since taken to her page to tell everybody just how grateful she is for their support.

‘I always wanted to have a lot of friends but I never imagined it would be so many,’ she insisted, adding that she was ‘so humbled’ by the news.

So who did the singer beat in her quest for Facebook popularity? Here’s how the current top ten shapes up:

Shakira – 86,420,722 likes
Rihanna – 86,271,591 likes
Eminem – 83, 935, 160 likes
Cristiano Ronaldo – 76,148,074 likes
Michael Jackson – 71,605,480 likes
Vin Diesel – 70,112,311 likes
Katy Perry – 65,694,061 likes
Will Smith – 64,732,390 likes
Justin Bieber – 64,167,464 likes

Unfortunately, the line was not picked on time despite several attempts, so that the incident could be reported there and there. However the customer has photographed what he faced including how the KFC worker inspecting same.
