With an estimated 317 active monthly users, Twitter is a giant. Despite the limited “microblogging” services available on the site, users still log on to read, retweet, and respond to 140-character messages. Or, they simply (and anonymously) follow along with the tweets that are curated for them in their personalized feed.

A Short History of Twitter

This social networking service can be accessed via the Web or their mobile application. It was founded in 2006, and became one of the top 10 most visited websites by 2013. The company announced its initial public offering later in 2013, with a closing valuation at $31 billion dollars.

Since then, Twitter’s popularity has significantly declined. It is unclear what Twitter’s future will be like, since celebrities, socialites, and influencers — along with agencies, corporations, and foundations — continue to have an active presence across the platform. See below for the celebs and public figures who have the most Twitter followers on the platform.

Katy Perry, 95.2 million followers
This pop sensation holds the title for most Twitter followers — she even beats out second place by over 4 million followers. The star is relatively active on the account, and tweets multiple times a week. She shares her thoughts, links to her Instagram account, and links to articles. She also frequently shares information about the charities she is most passionate about.

Justin Bieber, 91 million followers
In second place is Justin Bieber. Although the singer is usually very brief on Twitter, he often promotes his upcoming concerts and appearances. He also frequently retweets mentions of himself or his trending songs.

Taylor Swift, 82.9 million followers
The global popstar, despite having a massive following, isn’t particularly active on her Twitter account. Still, she has been surrounded by a lot of drama on various social networks, such as Twitter, for her feuds with other celebs like Kanye West and Katy Perry. Nonetheless, Swift maintains a relatively low-key presence.

Barack Obama, 80.3 million followers
Rounding out the list is the 44th POTUS, who tweets updates about his appearances, speeches, and worldwide news. Even though the account isn’t always in the first person (after all, he’s a busy man), it helps followers stay in the know about what the president is working on. The account also tweets links to organizations and causes that the president supports like Healthcare.gov, climate change, and women’s rights.
