Lady Gaga dethrones Britney as new Twitter queen

Lady Gaga has now conquered Twitter by amassing more than 5.7 million fans, leaving Britney Spears behind her.

Spears and the Bad Romance singer had been tough competitors for the top Twitter title, but Gaga finally surpassed her on Saturday.

She also won the coveted spot of the first living person to have over 10 million Facebook fans last month beating U.S. President Barack Obama. “Hello world, this is Lady Gaga, queen of Twitter,” the

Sun quoted Gaga as saying.
