Eminem has become the first person to rack up 60m fans on Facebook.

The rapper reached the milestone on Monday (July 30) as he left the likes of Rihanna and Lady Gaga in his wake.

At the time of writing, Eminem already has over 60,112,000 likes on the popular social networking website.

Rihanna currently sits close by with 59,393,545 likes whilst Lady Gaga has 53,013,161.

It's a different matter on Twitter however, with Eminem only enjoying 11.8m followers - a relatively low amount compared to Lady Gaga's 27.7m.
