Most followed PEOPLE on Instagram


The Facebook owned company Instagram has over 1 billion users as we speak. 10 of those users featured in this post ended up surpassing millions in becoming the most followed people on the entire app. Without further ado, let's get started with this list.

10. Neymar 92.7 million (followers)

Holding it down for the great people of Brazil, Neymar da Silva Santos Junior the Brazilian footballer has made  it into tenth place  on our list with nearly  93 million  people  following him on the social media app. Below, I have a comparison of the first picture Neymar uploaded onto Instagram to his most recent picture at the time of this upload.

9. Justin Bieber 99.3 million 

Of course Justin Bieber was going to be on this list wasn't he? Landing 9th place on this list, we have the pop star J.B. himself with 700k followers off hitting 100 million. By the end of this month, he may well reach that number! Though we must bare in mind, he could've had more followers had he not deactivated his account between August 2016 & February 2017 due to the abuse of his alleged girlfriend at the time Sofia Richie. Again, we have two pictures below of his first & most recent pictures uploaded on his Instagram account.

8. Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson 105 million 

I'll be honest, I didn't expect to see my man The Rock on this list however, I understand he is indeed widely known & loved across the world. I mean, how can we not love him? Up in eighth place, the wrestling champion, actor & very popular public figure Dwayne Johnson keeping his fans updated with his life by uploading nearly every day! Once again, we have his first & most recent Instagram pics below.

7. Taylor Swift 107 million

The pop singer Taylor Swift hits seventh place on this list with over 107.6 million people following her, though surprisingly, her first Instagram picture was posted not too long ago. Of course, it's no surprise Taylor Swift is on the list keeping her fans updated on her....I'mma let you finish, but BEYONCE HAS ONE OF THE BEST INSTAGRAM PROFILES OF ALL TIME! *Shrugs shoulders*

6. Kylie Jenner 108 million 

The young Instagram model Kylie Jenner sits in sixth spot & is quickly climbing the ladder to be in the top five most followed users, she may even be in the top five by the end of 2018. The recent mother of the adorable Stormi Webster last year took the top spot for the most liked picture ever on Instagram. With Kylie Jenner creating a name, fan base & brand of her own, will she be frequently seen on the new season of 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians'? Or will she break from her sisters to do something of her own? Who knows? Well, below again we have her first & most recent pictures on her Instagram page.

5. Kim Kardashian 110 million

Sister of Kylie Jenner, we have Kim Kardashian herself in the top five. The woman behind the Kardashians' fame (not wealth, they were wealthy before). Using Instagram as her main social media page to take very nice half naked pictures of herself, she acquires  fifth place on this list. I guess you could say she is the 'Queen of Instagram', as she's the most followed person to have Instagram as their main source of fame. On the left of us below, we have Kim's first ever picture from when she was an Insta-amateur at taking pictures. On the right, we have her most recent. Just...just look at the quality between the two!

4. Beyonce 114 million

Beyonce Giselle Knowles-Carter also known as Queen B (not to be confused with Kim K, the queen of Instagram) has a large fan base overall, albeit it's no wonder Beyonce's fan base known as the 'Beyhive' has managed to land the American singer at number four on this list! 

6th November 2012                                                                 27th April 2018



3. Ariana Grande 119 million

Another pop singer, we have the one & only Ariana Grande hitting podium level at third place on the list! With nearly 120 million followers, we can safely assume that her upcoming album 'Sweetener' will be a huge success among herself & her fan base. You know what time it is? Yep, that's right! The left is the first picture, the right is the most recent!

2. Cristiano Ronaldo 125 million

Surprise surprise, another footballer. Cristiano Ronaldo dos Santos Aveiro is a Portuguese footballer, widely known as "The best footballer in the world" (this frequently to sparks many arguments). Not only is he the second most followed person on Instagram, he's also the most liked page on Facebook (excluding the Facebook mobile page). Well done Ronaldo for being the runner up on this list. Below are his first & most recent pictures.

This means the most followed person on Instagram is....








1.Selena Gomez 136 million followers

The singer, actress, philanthropist & public figure Selena Gomez takes the number one stop for being the most followed person Instagram. She's held this position for quite a few years now, will she retain this position by 2019? Who knows. It's no surprise she's first on the list, by uploading cool, creative & inspirational posts nearly every day to update her fan base on her daily life & how she helps others. Below again, we have her first Instagram picture & her most recent.

26th December 2011                                                                     04th May 2018



Below are an additional two pictures with Selena Gomez using her fame & major influence to get people's voices heard for good causes.

Well done Selena for being the most followed person on Instagram! You deserve it!


Honourable mention

T Reign 90 followers

After creating another Instagram account, my new account gives everyone the best chance ever to see what I'm up to on a (not so) regular basis! I made this account recently, this is because I'd noticed people started to follow me on my personal account, though that account is extremely outdated. If you wish to follow me on that account, I will follow you back but be warned...I don't post on that one....ever..

On that note, below are two pictures of my first post on T Reign's Instagram & my most recent!
