Washington: As we look back at 2012, Bing searches show it was a year of
familiar faces, momentous events and baby fever. While last year people were
singing "Baby, baby, baby" with Justin Bieber as the most-searched
person of 2011, 2012 was the year of the real baby, as celebrity births were
five of the top 10 celebrity events.
From new reality stars such as Honey Boo
Boo to viral hits such as "Gangnam Style" and airwave darlings such
as Taylor Swift, Bing captured history through the searches that mark the
year's most fascinating people, sensations and moments in time.
Kim Kardashian didn't just keep up with other celebs such as
Justin Bieber (2011's most-searched person) this year, she took back the top
spot. Kim K. was the most-searched person of the year in 2012, regaining the
spot she also held in 2010. Her relationship ups and downs, including a new
relationship with Kanye West, made Kim more interesting than ever.
While Justin
Bieber fell to the second spot, he still was the most-searched male of the year
and the most-searched musician, thanks to the continued support of his many
"Beliebers."
Newcomers to the list include Rihanna, who skyrocketed
from No. 20 in 2011 to No. 4 this year; Selena Gomez, who jumped from No. 13 to
No. 7; and Nicki Minaj, who just barely cracked the top 10 at No. 9, up from
No. 23 in 2011. Miley Cyrus made the biggest gain within the top 10 list,
jumping from No. 10 to No. 3, likely due to her surprise engagement.
