Lady Gaga has almost 30 million followers, making her the "most followed" celebrity ... or so they say. British company Status People has found that only 29 percent of her followers are "good." Meaning, legit. So, what about the other 71 percent?!

lady gaga

Rob Waller of Status People told The Guardian: "A fake account is set up to follow people or send out spam. They normally have no followers, but follow large numbers of people. An inactive account is one in which there has been no activity for a while. They could be real people, but we would describe them as consumers of information rather than sharers of information. A good account is everything that remains."

Why is this important? These days, the number of Twitter followers a celeb has is often used to determine his or her "worth." So Gaga might not be worth as much as you thought ... at least in the social media world, anyway!

    Well, duh. It's not like anyone is going to make a fake account just to up the number of followers for a celebrity.

    It isn't as if it's well deserved either. I know, most SodaHead patrons are pretty anti-Gaga - the statistics have made that pretty clear - but worldwide, that is another story.

    To me, it's just a shining example of her victory and accomplishments. Rock on, my Lady. ♥

    I'm betting a lot of them are dupe accounts, sock puppets, or those looking to collect followers (follow me/follow you).

    I have encountered several spammer accounts on this site alone, talking about several people making money online from home. I always report them, but that profile still votes, and these are what is meant by a non-legit follower. Seriously, everybody calm down, she's not that big of a deal.

    Actually, people do that in marketing departments, and it is technically not a form of false advertising. Some crazy fans do that with video on Youtube.

    No Way!! Justlook at them. With all her money, why woudn't Lady Gaga go through a reputable company like Mohr Publicity. I bought twitter followers from Mohr Publicity (http://mohr-productions.com/... and every one of them appears to be real. They are tweeting and interacting. This only cost me 50.00 for 10,000 followers. With all her money, why woudn't Lady Gaga go through a reputable company like this? http://mohrpublicity.com
