Ashton Kutcher, who became an undisputed king of Twitter after famously beating CNN to 1 million followers last April, is getting tough competition from pop star Britney Spears.

Imdb.com reports that Kutcher had more followers than anyone else on the micro-blogging site, but it seems his days as Twitter’s most popular user is in trouble.

Spears is slowly closing in on Kutcher — and the gap between their number of followers gets smaller every day. At the time of this posting, Kutcher had 4,890,797 followers, while Spears had 4,878,516.
