Here’s what Utahns searched the most in 2019

SALT LAKE CITY — As 2019 comes to an end, Google is sharing its 2019 Year in Search: the list of the top trending searches from around the world. They shared with us what was trending right here in Utah.

Google says that its Year in Search is an annual look into what was searched the most over the year by analyzing the trillions of queries the site saw over the year.

Here’s what Utahns were looking for this year.

Disney+

As the newest challenger in the streaming world’s entertainment juggernaut, Disney launched its own digital streaming platform, touting its massive back catalog of content as well as new exclusive programming. They are also responsible for the countless Baby Yoda memes, which is another area Utah led in. According to research done by HighSpeedInternet.com and confirmed by KSL, Utah ranked #1 in searches for the adorable 50-year-old Baby Yoda. (Yes, we know it’s probably not really Yoda. But since we don’t know its name…)

Mackenzie Lueck

23-year-old University of Utah student Mackenzie Lueck went missing on June 17 after returning from a family funeral in California. She took a Lyft ride from the airport to a park in North Salt Lake, where she then got in a vehicle with someone else. Almost one month later, Salt Lake County District Attorney Sim Gill announced that Ayoola Ajayi, 31, had been charged in her murder after finding Lueck’s body in Logan Canyon.

Captain Marvel

Brie Larson took up the role as the superhero Captian Marvel. This was the first movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe to feature a woman in the title role and was one of the expected seven Disney-owned movies to cross the $1 billion mark.

Game of Thrones

The wildly popular HBO fantasy show Game of Thrones took Utah’s spot for 4th most searched term this year. After running on the pay-per-view station since 2011, the show came to its series finale this year, bringing with it high expectations and also deep disappointment among fans.

Notre Dame Cathedral

The iconic French Cathedral suffered a catastrophic fire in April. Construction began in 1163 and took almost 200 years to complete. French authorities believe the cause of the fire was either an electrical malfunction or a burning cigarette.

Nipsey Hussle

33-year-old Ermias Davidson Asghedom, who went by the name Nipsey Hussle, was shot and killed in front of his clothing store in California. Hussle had founded his own record label, All Money In, in 2010, and worked with dozens of other successful hip-hop artists throughout his career, including Kendrick Lamar, Drake and Ty Dolla Sign.

Avengers: Endgame

Marvel closed out its decade-long story of superheroes and supervillains in one massive blockbusting hit. Avengers: Endgame brought with it a star-studded cast of A-list actors and shattered the record for biggest opening weekend ever, bringing in an estimated $1.2 billion worldwide. It became the highest-grossing movie of all time.

Luke Perry

Best known as a heartthrob on Beverly Hills, 90210, Perry died this year after suffering a massive stroke.

Antonio Brown

The former NFL player was released from his contract as a receiver for the New England Patriots after allegations of sexual misconduct between the player and two women. Brown denies those allegations and took shots at other players and owners after the news surfaced he had been fired.

Cameron Boyce

The 20-year-old actor best known for starring in the Disney Channel show Jessie from 2011 to 2015 passed away in July this year. His family released a statement saying that he passed away in his sleep after suffering a seizure related to an ongoing medical condition.
