My last look at the Facebook numbers was February 23^rd (here) and these new numbers are from June 29^th 2026.

As ever – If you want to know more about why some comedians are not included in reports, how I gather the data, which I stated with 100+ names and am now down to only 29…then see here.

Facebook Followers

The free counters for FB are very flakey so, if you spot any slight discrepancies, you’ll have to give me a pass. The numbers are as close as I could get them. With a few people I had to keep refreshing the counter for 3-4 minutes to get it to show anything as all and, with a couple, I had to go by the number that displays when you search for someone’s account (in Google).

• The Top 3 US comedians (blue) are unchanged, from last month. The Top 3 US for growth (variance) have Kevin Hart being replaced by Gabriel Iglesias.
• The TOP 3 Brit comedians (gold) are unchanged, from last month. The Top 3 Brits for growth have Ricky Gervais being surpassed by Peter Kay.

If I compare 20^th October 2025 to June 29^th 2026, just the Top 3 from each country, who has added the most followers in 8 months?
