When it comes to Facebook fans for female celebrities, it appears that Lady Gaga is now under Rihanna’s umbrella.

As reported by Mashable, Rihanna overtook Lady Gaga to claim the title of most popular woman on Facebook, with 40,591,705 fans at the time of this post, compared with 40,560,858 for Gaga.

Both female crooners still dwarf President Barack Obama, who totaled a mere 22,031,452 Facebook fans at the time of this post.

Both women are undeniably red-hot in terms of popularity, so why the surge for Rihanna? She and her staff appear to be relying on consistency, rather than trying to score a huge gain from one single post.
