The World's Most Popular Athlete On Twitter Is...

… someone named Kaka??
If you’ve never heard of Kaka, that’s okay! He’s a Brazilian soccer star, and his full name is Ricardo Izecson dos Santos Leite!
He just became the world’s first athlete to reach 10 million followers on Twitter!
This makes him only the sixteenth person to get that many, which is crazy to begin with! His teammate, Cristiano Ronaldo, hasn’t even hit 9 million — yet seems to us to be the more recognizable name!
We guess that’s just not true, apparently! Maybe he’s just a better Tweeter?!
Congrats, Kaka!
