Which artists have the most loyal fan bases? Well, we don't have to argue about it anymore, because science has given us the answer!
A new survey asked fans a bunch of questions, like how far they'd be willing to travel for a concert, how much they'd be willing to pay for tickets, and whether they would take money from their SAVINGS to see a show.
Somehow, they turned this into a system that rated people's fandom on a scale of zero to 100.
And here are the Top 10 fandoms:
1. BTS, 88.4
2. Michael Jackson, 76.8
3. Elton John, 66.4
4. Lady Gaga, 66.3
5. Taylor Swift, 60.0
6. Queen, 55.8
7. Lana Del Rey, 52.7
8. Beyoncé, 51.8
9. Eminem, 50.8
10. Harry Styles, 40.0
Meanwhile, the GENRE with the most loyal fans is R&B, with a score of 82.2. It's followed by Rap with 77.7, Pop with 77.3, Hip-Hop with 63.7, and Electronic with 62.3.

There's a new variety of avocados on the way called "Luna" New things include the skin of the Luna avocados changing color when it's ripe, from emerald green to dark black, so you don't have to guess when it's ready.
The Luna also has a "smoother" texture, which is ideal for guacamole.
Which leads to:
Today's Useless Fact of the Day - 80% of the avocados eaten worldwide are Hass avocados and they make up a whopping 95% of the avocados eaten in the U.S.
The Hass emerged in the 1980s, before that, the preferred variety was the "Fuerte," a.k.a. "Strong." The Hass won out because of its taste , it was easier to peel, and Fuerte trees only produced fruit every two years.
