Look back at what you looked up.
Lamar Odom and Caitlyn Jenner top Google’s 2015 “Year in Search” report
released on Wednesday, which lists the people, places and events that
trended the most over the past year.
People were keeping up with Khloe Kardashian’s ex, Odom. The former NBA
player began 2015 mired in a contentious divorce with the reality star
before suffering near-fatal brain damage in a November booze and drug
binge at a Nevada brothel. He topped the lists for Top Trending General
Searches and Top Trending People (Not Including Deaths) globally and in
NYC.
But Jenner was hot on his heels in those categories, as well, after
becoming a transgender icon in publicly transitioning from Bruce to
Caitlyn. This year was a tipping point for the Olympic champion, who
revealed her new persona on the cover of Vanity Fair in July and starred
in her own E! reality series “I Am Cait.”
The tech giant’s annual report tracks the terms on everyone’s
fingertips - from the tragic, such as the Paris terrorist attacks at the
Charlie Hebdo offices in January and the coordinated ISIS attacks last
month, to the political antics of blowhard billionaire Donald Trump and
the blockbuster action movie “Jurassic World” scoring the biggest
opening weekend in movie history.
"This is the year of the crossover, and it is also what makes Google
data so compelling: You would never put Lamar Odom and Caitlyn Jenner on
the same list, or have 'Jurassic Park' next to Donald Trump," said
Google data editor Simon Rogers. "We didn't just look for the biggest
searches. We wanted to get at the stories and people that rose really
fast in search interest. That's what these lists represent: If someone's
at the top of a list, it means they rose faster than anyone else in a
shorter time."
