The pop star leaps into the top 5 after performing new single "Come and Get It" on "Dancing with the Stars."
Selena Gomez flies 22-5 on the Social 50 chart this week, earning the singer/actress her highest rank since Nov. 24, 2012 (No. 5). The chart surge is owed in part to a performance of new track "Come and Get It" on ABC's "Dancing With the Stars" (April 18), as well as residual buzz from its premiere performance on the MTV Movie Awards (April 14).
The Social 50 chart ranks the most popular artists on YouTube, Vevo, Facebook, Twitter, SoundCloud, Wikipedia, Myspace and Instagram. The chart's methodology blends weekly additions of friends/fans/followers along with artist page views, song plays and reactions.
The last time Gomez broke the top 10 was the week of March 2, where anticipation was running high for her then-upcoming role in the movie "Spring Breakers."
This charting week, she also announced the pre-sale for her 2013 Stars Dance world tour. This news, combined with her "Dancing" gig, led to a 74% rise in conversation about the star during the week. That lift gave way to the addition of 757,000 new fans on the platform (a 361% increase over the previous week). She also added 85,000 new fans on Twitter (up 17%). Gomez, however, falls 32% in overall plays for the week. Her decline is expected, as she's stabilizing in plays after the debut of her single two weeks ago on VEVO.
