Thanks to her "Little Monster" cult-following, Lady Gaga broke a Twitter record on Saturday by becoming the first user to garner over 20 million followers.
At last check midday on Monday, Gaga was up to a whopping 20,106,555 followers.
But this isn't the first Twitter record the pop star has broken—she was also the first user to reach 10 and 15 million followers. And the last million followers all came within the past 28 days, most likely as a result of the recent launch of the "Born This Way Foundation" and her "Little Monsters" social network—which gives her fans an outlet to discuss what else but Gaga herself.
According to MediaBistro, at the rate Gaga is going, she will likely add another million to her following before the end of March.
Check out the chart below documenting Gaga's Twitter domination.
