Klout Scores Of The Top 10 Gay Porn Stars On Twitter

The Sword just put out a list of the Top Gay Porn Stars on Twitter

http://thesword.com/the-top-50-most-popular-gay-porn-stars-on-twitter.html

I looked up the Klout scores of the top 10 porn stars. What’s interesting is that, with the exception of Brent Everett and maybe Austin Wilde the Klout scores aren’t nearly as high as you’d expect given the number of followers they have.

  1. Brent Everett 102,402 followers, Klout 80

  2. Brent Corrigan: 100,533 followers, Klout 61

  3. Pierre Fitch 58,796 followers, Klout 62

  4. Austin Wilde: 47,161 followers, Klout 67

  5. Landon Conrad: 40,729 followers, Klout 64

  6. Adam Killian: 38,611 followers, Klout 61

  7. Paul Wagner: 35,107 followers, Klout 55

  8. Tom Wolfe: 34,149 followers, Klout 57

  9. Jake Bass: 32,999 followers, Klout 63

  10. Rafael Alencar: 32,827 followers, Klout 59

So Klout isn’t all about followers.

The whole Klout thing is, well, rather disconcerting. Not just because they’ve claimed to mostly solve a problem that’s vexed science for generations, but also because it is being translated to real-world clout without being fully vetted. For example, even non-American Airlines passengers get access to the ‘Admiral’s Lounge’ if they have a klout score > 55. It’s being used by employers. Hell, it’s being used by everyone. Why does no one wonder how a company not even four years old or just over depending on which account you read, with just 40 employees, suddenly has so much sway on its own?

Google is doing the same exact thing as part of their SERP algorithm - they just don’t tell you the number. And to Klout’s credit they don’t claim to measure your value as a human being - just how much influence you wield on certain social media sites.

Twitter is kinda fun actually once you figure it out. It’s not really that much different than an old IRC or gay.com chatroom and d’uh people want you to interact with them. I got it now. My Klout score has increased 2 points this week … yes, I’m failing at rule #1: Don’t check your Klout score too much.

Re: Klout Scores Of The Top 10 Gay Porn Stars On Twitter

Your Klout Score went up!

Your Klout Score has increased by 18 in the past 30 days.

Im on 61 now! Whoop!

Re: Klout Scores Of The Top 10 Gay Porn Stars On Twitter

I followed all three of you guys on twitter…and you guys didnt follow back and my Klout score went down…

When I unfollowed you guys…it went back up? Whats up with that?

I think Im still following Richard maybe?

Re: Klout Scores Of The Top 10 Gay Porn Stars On Twitter

I don’t follow everyone who follows me, that would be insane. I mostly just follow gay porn stars.

Re: Klout Scores Of The Top 10 Gay Porn Stars On Twitter

I don’t really look too much at who follows me. I tend to look for and follow guys who tweet about their sex lives and guys who post hot pics - especially hot pics of bareback sex. When I find a bareback pornstar or producer I’ll follow them too. And then of course there are a few like The Sword who are in a category by themselves. So unless you fall into one of those categories I’m unlikely to follow you back.
