Popularity contest that proves --- well you work it out

Ok so I just couldn't let this one slide with all you Facebook junkies out there interested in a quick dissection of the kind of people that make social networking popular.

Without Googling, name the top three most popular people on Facebook solely based on the number of fans....give up?

The top one shouldn't be a surprise considering he just died -- that's right Michael Jackson scores number one (9,999,016 fans) and number four spots (4,611,369) on the list (the fourth is a RIP site...don't get me started). But who are the mysterious two and three you ask?

One runs the biggest country in the world....that's right, the man that is being compared to Hitler -- Barack Obama comes in with 6,486,228 fans and rounding out the top three is Fast and Furious and is non other than Vin Diesel.

WTF you proclaim, and rightly so. Yes that's right, the third most popular person on Facebook by number of fans is Vin Diesel with 5,357,710.

The next person who suggests Facebook users are smart, bright faces of the future will get a spine in the you-know-where.

Just to let you know, I Heart Sleep, Pizza, Megan Fox, I Need a Vacation, Facebook and Dr House round out the Top 10.


And for those people who don't know who Vin Diesel is -- here's a picture.
