Once again, Miley Cyrus continues to lead, topping the charts in four regions: British Columbia, New Brunswick, Ontario, and Yukon. Britney Spears takes center stage in Alberta, Manitoba, and the Northwest Territories. Britney's viral dancing Instagram videos have been causing a sensation online.

In joint third place, we find Kylie Jenner and Jennifer Aniston. Jenner secures the top spot as the most searched-for in Quebec and Nunavut, whereas Aniston takes the lead in Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island. Kylie’s ever-evolving style, reality TV shows and entrepreneurial ventures continue to captivate audiences. While Aniston's enduring charm and acting prowess cements her place in the hearts of fans worldwide.

Completing the search results, Dolly Parton takes the top spot in Saskatchewan. Meanwhile, Canadian and American singer-songwriter Alanis Morissette is the most searched celeb in Newfoundland and Labrador, possibly owing to her performances at the Churchill Park Music Festival in 2023.
