Well, it looks like another person is now the most popular on Instagram. Selena Gomez isn’t Instagram’s most followed user anymore, according to ELLE. On Monday, the publication reported Gomez’s title, which she held for the past two years, as the most followed individual on the social media network has officially been stripped.
So, who is now at the top? The person shouldn’t come as any surprise, because the athlete has been right behind the singer for some time now. Are you ready for the reveal? It is none other than soccer player Cristiano Ronaldo.On Oct. 29, Cosmopolitan reported Ronaldo had 144,316,082 followers, whereas Gomez had 144,311,124. She’s really not that far behind him, and their number of followers could change at any moment. But, as of right now, the professional athlete remains in the no. 1 spot.
According to ELLE, Ariana Grande is the third most followed person on Instagram with over 132 million followers, and Kim Kardashian comes in fourth with over 119 million followers. To have that many followers is really impressive.
In March 2016, Gomez became Instagram’s most followed person. At the time she had 69.4 million followers. Two years later, she’s acquired an additional 75 million Instagram users, give or take. The 26-year-old may no longer have the most followers, but her numbers are still impressive. To rack up that many followers in two years? Yeah, that’s…
