Kim Kardashian Sends on Twitter Love after Collecting 13 Million Followers

(NewsCore) - LOS ANGELES -- Kim Kardashian passed on love to her Twitter fans Monday, in celebration of amassing 13 million followers.

"Last night I passed 13 million followers on Twitter and I just want to thank you all sooo much!" she wrote on her blog about her increased prominence on the micro-blogging website.

"I love you guys and I'm so thankful for each & every one of you!!!!" she added, posting a photo of herself blowing a kiss to her admirers.

The 31-year-old reality star is now the fifth most followed account on Twitter -- behind Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber, Katy Perry and Shakira.

She hit the milestone despite a New York Post report last month claiming that the Kardashian brand was in decline, with ratings for the family's multiple reality shows slipping in the wake of Kim's filing for divorce from Kris Humphries after just 72 days of marriage.

The entire Kardashian clan is active on Twitter. The youngest sister, Khloe, boasts 6 million followers and the eldest, Kourtney, has 5.1 million followers.
