The Born This Way star famously has 29million 'Little Monsters' following her feed, and became the first person to gather 20million followers on the site.
But social media company Status People has suggested that nearly three quarters of them are either inactive or created by spamming computers known as 'bots'.
"A fake account is set up to follow people or send out spam. They normally have no followers, but follow large numbers of people," said company executive Rob Waller.
"An inactive account is one in which there has been no activity for a while. They could be real people, but we would describe them as consumers of information rather than sharers of information. A good account is everything that remains."
The research study showed that of the singer's last 100,000 followers, only 29% would fall into this "good category".
The singer is currently in the middle of her Born This Way ball world tour.
