Musk has passed soccer star since June Cristiano Ronaldo and singers Rihanna, Katy Perry and last Justin Bieber. With 113.8 million followers, Bieber moves up to number three among followers.

The only person to rank ahead of Musk in Twitter followers is a former President Barack Obama. Obama’s Twitter account has 133.3 million followers.

Obama’s account is significantly ahead of the current @POTUS account used by President Joe Biden and Biden’s personal account, which have 27 million and 36 million followers, respectively.

One person who could climb up the followers chart is former President Donald Trump. Before he was suspended from the platform, Trump had 88.9 million followers. Musk has hinted that Trump could be welcome again in the future on Twitter.
