At PsychoAnalyst kaba para ma-assess mo character ni lady gaga? think first!!! Illuminati? basahin mo mabuti angels and demons kung ano ang ibig sabihin ng iluminati… baka hirap kang intindhin magtanong ka lang sa ken, i will help you!
its not about the money though, its about popularity….
kya most powerful c gaga dahil illuminati cia, nililinlang lng nya mga tao. no offense sa mga gaga fans pro that’s the truth,
mga tanga!!! ang pinag-uusapan ay most powerful, nilagay lang nila yung earnings irregardless of the rank… intindhin nyo nga mabuti! puro kayo comment, magbasa kayo kasi ng Forbes magazine!!!
one more thing is..ung oprah mag ooff air na…that’s sad fav. show ko naman yan/..
@8: yep! that’s the reason behind it. kudos for doing the researching!
the reason is because si gaga ay rank 1 sya under social rank and web rank…no.2 sya sa press rank and no.3 sa tv/radio rank si gaga ay no.8 sa money rank….while oprah no.1 sa money and tv/radio rank and rank 7 sa press rank and web and social rank no.13 siya…that’s why gaga beats oprah dahil sa maraming followers at facebook likes siya at marami din siyang mga tv guestings…..!

mas POWERFUL pa rin si oprah! 290M vs 90M? come on! i say, mas marami pa ring fans si oprah, they were not just facebook and twitter nuts!
ang lola mo talaga
base din ito sa no. of follwers sa FB and Twitter…
Britney is not in the top100…
but, Britney is the most loved artist on the social network… according to amplicate dot com hehe
Keep it up gaga & justin.
i guess its not the earnings! coz even the top 3 down to 10 are nt consistent..the article is confusing! idiot! they shudnt have written the earnings if the mean being powerful or if they mean earning they shud have arranged it accordingly.
1. Lady Gaga, $90 million
2. Oprah Winfrey, $290 million
—HOW DOES 90 MILLION OF GAGA OH LALA IS GREATER THAN 290 MILLION OF OPRAH HAHAHA???
