Linkin Park 18,154,410 +426,908 +2.41 The first Page on the list this week was the Harry Potter Page, which given the smash success of the most recent film, makes sense. The movie reached worldwide release in the past week, adding 930,300 Likes in the process to grow to 10.6 million total. Another film, “Tangled,” from Disney pushed that Page to number 10 on the list with 530,900 new Likes and more than 13.9 million all told. Then there were two beverages on the list, Red Bull and Coca-Cola. Red Bull took third place after adding 730,300 new Likes to reach 13.3 million; the Page has been mostly promoting Red Bull and related events and merchandise. At number 15 was Coca-Cola with 475,600 new Likes and a total of 19.7 million. Tech companies on the list included Google (Chrome and YouTube), Facebook and Zynga. In second place was the Google Chrome Facebook Page which showed some huge spikes after adding 807,100 Likes to pass 4 million. Facebook’s own Page added 597,800 Likes to come in just under 29 million. YouTube’s Page added 597,400 Likes to jump to 23.5 million. Finally, Zynga’s Texas Hold’em Poker Page added 586,300 Likes to get to 28.8 million with all types of promotions on the Page. There were a bunch of TV-related Pages on the list, too. At number 11 was “The Simpsons” with 527,100 new Likes and 15.5 million total; the Page has been promoting the show. “SpongeBob SquarePants” was number 13 with 493,800 new Likes and 13.7 million total; the SpongeBob float in the Thanksgiving Macy’s Day Parade seems to have garnered some attention on the Page. “Star Trek” was next at 14 with 481,000 new Likes, the bulk of the 591,800 Likes to the Page -- it seems like perhaps a Page consolidation took place. Finally, MTV’s Page added 460,400 new Likes to reach 11.3 million although it mostly promoted old content. The remaining eight Pages on the list belonged to musicians. Rihanna came in fourth with 646,300 new Likes and a total of 17.6 million; she recently appeared on an awards show and is running a promotional sweepstakes for fans. At number 8 was Shakira, who added 578,700 new Likes to her 15.4 million; she recently won a music award. Eminem was next at 9 with 565,600 new Likes to pass 22 million and he hasn’t even updated the Page. The group Shinedown was at number 12 after adding 505,300 new Likes to grow the Page to 651,500. The band is selling iTunes downloads of its songs on Facebook, like several other bands on our list. Bob Marley’s Page took the number 17 spot with 450,500 new Likes, coming in just under 16.5 million at the end of the week, and selling merch and promoting covers. Akon’s Page took number 18 with 432,800 new Likes and almost 13 million total fans, selling iTunes downloads and set to perform in the Victoria’s Secret show this week. Also performing at the Victoria’s Secret show is Katy Perry, whose page is up 428,500 Likes this week with a total of 14.4 million; she’s also selling iTunes downloads. Finally, Linkin Park came in at number 20. The band added 426,900 Likes, passed 18.1 million and is touring, as well as selling tickets to its North American tour on Facebook.
