Top 10 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.

1. Shakira – 86,420,722 likes
