20 million Jimmy fans can’t be wrong!

Little nod there to an Elvis album (here). Although THAT number was apparently a fabrication, at the time. The numbers below are verifiable!

I digress.

Jimmy has passed another milestone – this time with 20 million social media account subscribers / followers. Plus, within that number, 2m+ are on YouTube channels.

• Threads – 494,000
• TikTok – 2,928,410
• Instagram – 3,881,085
• Facebook – 4,878,224
• X / Twitter – 5,772,640
• YouTube Espanol – 194
• YouTube Jimmy Carr TV – 18,093
• YouTube Jimmy Carr Shorts – 28,200
• YouTube More Jimmy Carr – 102,401
• YouTube Jimmy Carr (main channel) – 1,899,030

Totalling 20,002,277

The counters that I view have been pretty glitchy lately and the Threads one hasn’t updated for weeks, meaning I’ve had to just use the “rounded” number at the top of his account. That 494,000 is likely to be 495,000 by the end of today (poss tmrw, as it’s a Monday) as it’s been incrementing by 1,000 a day recently.

X / Twitter has been having a purge again (since the 6^th) as, in those 5 days, Jimmy has lost -1,835. I assume a purge as I use Jack and Russell as kind of calibration accounts. When all 3 of them lose subs that suggests it’s the platform and not specific to the account. Same period, Jack lost -2,021 and Russell -473.

Contemporaries update

If you’re not familiar with my methodology – the Reporting page (here) explains the background.

I last looked at YouTube on April 19^th (here) – so here’s a quick and dirty update:

Surpassing the 2m across his YouTube channels puts him in 8^th place.

Total views is coming up for 2 billion, which puts him overall 4^th and WAY out in front of the other Brit comedians.

Finally. The views growth for 2026 is pretty impressive!
