But wait! Surely other celebrity Twitter accounts aren’t afflicted by this unforgivable deceit. Right? Actually… most of them are even worse.

For our analysis, we decided to get a second opinion from Status People’s Fake Follower Check, because we’ve been able to independently verify its accuracy in the past. Here’s whose followers are fake, inactive, or real-live human people—and in what quantity. Rankings reflect most to least imaginary friends.
