US Armenian reality star Kim Kardashian was Google's most searched
for celebrity in 2011, according to UKPA.
Her profile was reportedly boosted this year when she married and
divorced basketball player Kris Humphries within the space of three
months.
She rose to fame after appearing in reality show Keeping Up With
The Kardashians which launched in 2007 and follows the personal and
professional lives of members of her family.
Second most popular for web users on google.co.uk was Victoria
Beckham, followed by Harry Potter star Emma Watson and actress
Scarlett Johansson. Friends star Jennifer Aniston rounded off the
top five celebrities.
The creator and star of The Office, Ricky Gervais, was the only man
in the top 10 list.
It was drawn up by staff at the internet search giant as part of its
annual zeitgeist which examines the latest online trends.
Other popular searches reveal a more serious side with the most popular
"what is" search being "what is AV?"
Almost 20 million people took part in the national referendum on
the electoral system this year which saw two thirds vote to keep the
first-past-the-post system to elect MPs.
The two next most popular searches reveal a nation easily confused
by food with searches for "What is scampi" and "What are truffles".
