Some celebrities like to be seen, others, heard. I would guess that, as celebrities, many appreciate both. In this graph, I’m inferring their preferences from social media usage, based on how frequently they tweet relative to how often they post to Instagram. (Is this a guaranteed reflection of their feelings? No, of course not. But it’s still interesting.) I’ve plotted this against our preference to hear or see them based on the number of followers they have. Through this, we can explore if we are seeing celebrities who like to be seen, and hearing those who prefer to be heard.I selected 25 celebrities who are among the top 100 most followed people on both Instagram and Twitter, and calculated how many times more followers they have on one vs. the other. Names on the left side of the graph have more Instagram followers, those on the right have more Twitter followers. The scale shows the number of times as many (i.e., a value of 3x on the Instagram side indicates the person has three Instagram followers for every one Twitter follower). I also calculated the number of tweets per Instagram post for each person. Everyone tweeted with a higher frequency, but the range was significant: Miley tweets only 1.6 times per photo posted to Instagram, while Ariana’s ratio is 18.3. So I would infer from this that Ariana has a lot to say – she’d rather be heard than seen – while Miley prefers to be seen, given that her ratio is far below the weighted average across these celebrities of 7.1 tweets per Instagram post. Though not shown on the graph, the weighted average for followers is very balanced at 1.07 Instagram followers per Twitter follower.Sadly, but perhaps not surprisingly, the Kardashian/Jenner family is well followed on both forms of social media; all five daughters have more Instagram followers, with the two youngest having the highest ratio of Instagram to Twitter followers. Only Khloe has an above average tweet rate. Katy Perry, the most followed person on Twitter, and the two One Direction members (Niall and Harry) are all in close proximity within the ‘hear them and be heard’ quadrant. Lady Gaga has a low tweet rate, but has a much stronger following on Twitter than Instagram. Data pulled on 3/9/16.
