Lady Gaga Surges Past Barack Obama In Facebook Fans Race

Lady Gaga has taken the lead on Barack Obama in the race to become the first living person with more than 10 million fans on Facebook.

On Thursday, Lady Gaga had 9,779,748 compared to the US president's 9,427,524.

She has extended her lead by more than 200,000 fans after only a few hundred fans separated the pair last week.

But both are still 4 million behind Michael Jackson, who has more than 13 million followers on the social-networking website.

The King of Pop's popularity on the site has grown since his death a year ago.
