I thought long and hard about what article I was going to write for my first one in the all-new pop culture section of Men Suck. I wanted it to be something relevant and what is more pop culture than the Kardashians or Justin Bieber? Then I started thinking … I wonder just who is more famous?
When Justin Bieber released his new song Love Yourself, everyone said it was about Kendall Jenner. But then I was like how can that really be? I mean does she really need to use his name to get in clubs? Isn’t she mega famous?
So that’s when I got to doing my research. Turns out Kendall Jenner isn’t half as famous as Justin Bieber.
If we were to base level of fame solely on how many times a day fans Google their favorite celebs this is how their level of fame works out …. average monthly services in ()
- Justin Bieber (11,100,000)
- Kim Kardashian (11,100,000)
- Kylie Jenner (7,480,000)
- Kendall Jenner (5,000,000)
So while big sister Kim is able to go head to head with Justin Bieber in terms of popularity, Kendall – not so much.
Then I wondered just how Kanye West and the other Kardshian’s worked into this formula.
- Justin Bieber (11,100,000)
- Kim Kardashian (11,100,000)
- Kylie Jenner (7,480,000)
- Kendall Jenner (5,000,000)
- Caitlyn Jenner (4,090,000)
- Khloe Kardashian (4,090,000)
- Kanye West (3,350,000)
- Kourtney Kardashian (2,740,000)
- Kris Jenner (1,500,000)
- Rob Kardashian (1,220,000)
Poor Rob, he’s so far down the list it’s not even funny. But when it comes to Justin Bieber he’s still more famous than the Kardashian’s. Well, I guess it would be more accurate to say that there is no one Kardashian that is more famous than him.
Update November 2018: I thought it would be fun to go back and run these numbers again, now like almost 2 years later and see how things have played out over time. Who is more famous now? These are how many people have Googled the listed celebrity in the last month.
- Kylie Jenner (29,000,000)
- Kim Kardashian (26,000,000)
- Justin Bieber (7,200,000)
Talk about a major change. Kylie Jenner has now clearly overtaken her sister Kim in popularity and both Kim and Kylie have outpaced Justin Bieber.
