Demi Lovato won the 2014 People’s Choice Award for Favorite Music Fan Following. While One Direction has won MTV’s Biggest Fans Award in 2012, was nominated in 2013, and again this year (fingers crossed they win). Beyonce fans almost broke the internet during her 17-minute long performance at the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards. It’s also important to note that Nicki Minaj’s “Anaconda” video has over 220 million views on Vevo, after only releasing at the end of August 2014. Who do you think has the biggest/craziest following?
