MOST SEARCHED ON GOOGLE IN 2013

Google Zeitgeist

While some celebs tied the knot, others were going their separate ways, and Google’s lists of Trending Weddings and Most Searched Celebrity Break-ups had us searching for more info – what did she wear, who left whom? And after marriage comes baby or vice versa in the case of the no. 1 spot on the Most Searched Celebrity Pregnancies list – Kim Kardashian.

Google released its annual Zeitgeist – a “spirit of the times” – which gives us a chance to remember the people, places and topics that got us talking – and ultimately searching – before a new year begins.
