Okay, Florida… we need to talk about our Google searches. 😂

A new study from BetMGM Casino looked at 100 major celebrities to see which famous faces Americans are searching for the most in 2026, and here in Florida, Kanye West came out on top.

And I’m actually surprised because I would’ve put money on Bad Bunny being number one in Florida. But nope! Out of all 100 celebrities analyzed, Floridians showed the most Google search interest in Ye.

Nationally, Taylor Swift took the No. 1 spot for overall cultural visibility, followed by Michael Jackson, LeBron James, Bad Bunny and Sydney Sweeney. So Bad Bunny still made the top five!

The study looked at more than 6.6 million media mentions, plus Google searches and Wikipedia page views.

Apparently Florida has been keeping tabs on Kanye this year.

Be honest: who’s the last celebrity YOU Googled?
