⭠ Last week's report

Other than Hamilton things, made newly popular by a relevant Disney+ production, some deaths, Netflix series-es and more dotted the leaderboard.

Rank	Article	Class	Views	Image	Notes/about
1	Alexander Hamilton		2,834,549		In short: You can picture Alexander Hamilton as a guy that did lots to shape the financial system of the United States as we know it today. The #2-ranked musical of the same name (well almost) will tell you all about it, with some minor historical inaccuracies for sake of theatrical smoothness. More about the musical: the compositional and lyric bits of it were made possible by Lin-Manuel Miranda, who also features as main character Alexander Hamilton in a recent Disney+ production of it. Apparently this particular production has been made kid-friendly? Don't know for sure, I don't have Disney+.
2	Hamilton (musical)		1,861,563
3	Ghislaine Maxwell		1,220,429		Look, someone bouncing back onto the list. Some time after appearing in Jeffrey Epstein: Filthy Rich, this British socialite was arrested by the FBI exactly because of her connections to that deceased criminal, namely enticement of minors, sex trafficking of children and perjury.
4	Dark (TV series)		1,169,397		The third and final season of this sci-fi German-language Netflix original series was recently released to critical acclaim.
5	Carl Reiner		1,039,964		An American actor, comedian, director, screenwriter, and author with a long and storied career - he had a comedy duo with Mel Brooks, launched the film career of Steve Martin with The Jerk and more recently played an elderly member of Danny Ocean's gang - and a successful filmmaker son, Rob Reiner, Carl Reiner died at the age of 98 of natural causes.
6	Marsha P. Johnson		1,016,154		This American drag queen (who happened to be African-American) received a Google Doodle in late June this year. (I'll use) They played a reportedly important role in the Stonewall LGBT+ riots, and passed away shortly after the start of the 90s after a long spell of poor mental health (what she died by is still unknown).
7	Golden State Killer		1,003,826		Known variously as 'Diamond Knot Killer', 'EARONS', 'East Area Rapist', 'East Bay Rapist', 'East Side Rapist', 'Golden State Killer', 'Night Stalker', 'Original Night Stalker, Visalia Ransacker', Joseph James DeAngelo Junior is 'an American serial killer, serial rapist, burglar, and former police officer who committed at least 13 murders, more than 50 rapes, and over 100 burglaries in California between 1974 and 1986'. Seems intimidating. Some, if not most or all, of the crimes he is now alleged of committing were spread out in three distinct sprees. Originally, it was believed that each of the sprees were carried out by different people. In the end, (I believe) DNA science brought DeAngelo to light. He pleaded guilty to 'multiple' of these crimes this June.
8	Sushant Singh Rajput		1,000,359		This Indian actor recently committed suicide, sparking a 10 million+ weekly pageview count in the immediate aftermath of his passing.
9	Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga		949,461		This, a movie, premiered this June on Netflix. It was originally slated for May, but as restrictions and difficulties caused by the COVID-19 pandemic (#12) forced the cancellation of this year's Eurovision, the movie's release ultimately had to be moved later.
10	Saroj Khan		926,764		This Indian choreographer, apparently referred to sometimes as the 'mother of choreography in India', passed away on the third of July this year. An uncited claim (Ooh, uncited claims, huh?) in her Wikipedia article states that she played a major choreographic role in more than three thousand songs. Three thousand. Apparently, her career lasted forty years; so, that's one song done every 4.87 days, assuming leap years didn't exist.
11	Aaron Burr		846,418		Pictured: Leslie Odom Junior, who acted as Aaron Burr in the original Broadway cast of Hamilton (#2). Aaron Burr was Alexander Hamilton's (#1) friend turned enemy, who initially joined forces with Alexander to overthrow British rule over what was then the predecessor to today's United States but later killed him by gunshot, years later.
12	COVID-19 pandemic		805,795		It's getting worse.
13	Mount Rushmore		791,647		The incumbent President of the United States recently gave a campaign address at this important United States landmark (of which documents four previous US presidents; in the order that my memory supplies me with, George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Thomas Jefferson and Theodore Roosevelt). At the address, I believe Mr. Trump used fireworks to celebrate United States Independence Day, an action considered potentially dangerous due to the nearby pine trees being quite flammable. As for what Trump said, it seems that he put particular emphasis on stuff about removing statues. This article we found quoted him as saying 'Our nation is witnessing a merciless campaign to wipe out our history, defame our heroes, erase our values and indoctrinate our children'.
14	Jeffrey Epstein		780,694		For some change of pace, the dead financier\sex offender was brought in by his partner (#3) instead of the other way around.
15	Reckful		775,591		Holy cheese, a stub makes it into the Top 25. Reckful (also known as Byron) was a gamer who, I infer, committed suicide. If you play TypeRacer (like me), you will have seen half the community change their nicknames to honor Byron's time.
16	Deaths in 2020		762,216		There is one thing that I would die for It's when you say: "My life is in your hands"
17	Lin-Manuel Miranda		720,028		More Hamilton (#2): the Puerto Rican author and star of the play, and the wife of #1, portrayed in the musical by Phillipa Soo.
18	Elizabeth Schuyler Hamilton		620,361
19	365 Days (2020 film)		562,706		This Polish-language erotic movie was recently released on Netflix.
20	Independence Day (United States)		547,471		As put by Red vs. Blue, "The real reason we celebrate the Fourth of July isn't for the food or the fun, or even the picnics with the non-stop binge drinking. There's only one sure reason we celebrate the Fourth of July. To have a lot of explosions." And sadly most of these were halted by the pandemic (a few firework shows, such as the one in #13, still happened).
21	Hamilton (2020 film)		529,543		A few months after Artemis Fowl was dumped into Disney+, something actually worthy was released on the streaming service, this live recording of #2. Here are clips of it scored by a comedic and musical legend.
22	Robert Maxwell		509,972		#3 is the daughter of this British media mogul, who died under mysterious circumstances in 1991, also indulged in criminal activity with enough fraud to make his publishing empire go bankrupt, and inspired the villain from the James Bond movie Tomorrow Never Dies.
23	Rachel McAdams		505,297		A lovely and talented Canadian actress, currently starring in our #9 - even if her own singing is there augmented with that of an actual Eurovision contestant, Swedish singer Molly Sandén.
24	Donald Trump		484,256		The forty-fifth, and current, President of the United States. Politically, he is often a highly polarising figure, being the subject of both scathing and glorifying rhetoric, many of which makes it into media of some kind. I honestly don't know if there's any distinct reason why he's here--Presidents of the United States do a lot of newsworthy things. Perhaps his reactions to the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States have inspired pageviews, as well as his recent political rallies. Maybe his niece's book Too Much and Never Enough: How My Family Created the World's Most Dangerous Man too.
25	QAnon		467,399		QAnon is a conspiracy theory that proposes that secretly in the governmental system of the United States, there's workings that are aimed against incumbent President of the United States Donald Trump (#24). Some politicians who have expressed support for this theory have recently won their respective congressional elections (two of these being in this June).
