The current president of the United States is Joe Biden. This year the presidential elections were contested between Donald Trump and Joe Biden. After he won he was searched for on Google making him the first on this list.
Arnab Goswami
He is the editor-in-chief of the Republic Media Network. He made a lot of headlines during the year including the Sushant Singh Rajpoot case and was even arrested. All this led to him being the second person on this list.
Kanika Kapoor
The singer came into the limelight as she was the first celebrity to contract coronavirus. She returned from London and attended a party in Lucknow. The singer did not follow the quarantine rules and therefore was subject to the wrath of the people on social media sites.
Kim Jong-un
The North Korean leader has been in the news for a long. Whether it is missile testing or violation of human rights, the president is known by the whole world. Amidst all this came the news of his possible death. He was away from the public eye, which led people to assume if he had died. The doubts were soon cleared regarding his absence, but it was enough for him to secure a place in the top five of the list.
Amitabh Bachchan
He is a big sensation in the film industry. The star was in the news as he contracted coronavirus. He was also active on social media and gave updates about his health. His good wishers and fans were deeply invested in his well-being.- This eventually led him to sit on the fifth spot in this list.
Rashid Khan
There were clouds of doubts looming over the IPL. Courtesy of COVID-19 the tournament was about to get canceled but was later postponed and played finally in September. Afghan leggy Rashid Khan got featured in this list after his scintillating show in the competition where he returned with 20 scalps from 16 games playing for Sunrisers Hyderabad. He recorded his IPL career-best figures of 3 for 7 against the runners-up Delhi Capitals, making him the 6th most searched celebrity in 2020.
Rhea Chakraborty
There’s no surprise why Rhea Chakraborty has made this list. Post the death of Sushant Singh Rajput, Rhea became the national highlight. The blames that started claiming Rhea is the person behind Sushant’s demise moved towards the Bollywood drug controversy. Anyways, courtesy of two different scenarios, she dominated the Indian media and takes the 7th spot in this list.

Kangana Ranaut
Strangely, Kangana has grabbed the last position on this list. Alas, we expected her to be in the top three. She was one of the most vocal and controversial celebrities of 2020. This is because she took jibes on Maharashtra govt and Bollywood after the death of Sushant Singh Rajput.
