Hey, what’s up you guys it’s Emile Ennis
Jr. here with Clevver News, and it seems as
though Ariana Grande just earned a highly
coveted title on Instagram, , surpassing both
Selena Gomez and Kylie Jenner.
Over the weekend the VMA’s held their first-ever
virtual award show where Ari and Lady Gaga
brought the house down with their performance
of “Rain On Me” and Ari even made an appearance
with her new boyfriend, Dalton Gomez.
Gaga and Ari were two forces that could not
be messed with and let’s just say there
wasn’t a dry eye sitting at home in front
of our TVs.
For the special night, Ariana made sure to
bring fans along on her VMA night and even
shared a photo of her and Dalton walking hand-in-hand
leaving the show after her performance.
It was no doubt a big night for our favorite
singer who performed and took home awards
for Song of the Year, Best Collaboration,
and Best Cinematography for "Rain on Me."
This big night comes just after her very public
tribute to Dalton writing, “Happy birthday
to my baby my best friend my fav part of all
the days :) I love you.”
Dalton is an LA real estate agent and has
been dating Ariana for the past several months.
The two appear to be happy and in love we
love to see it.
And now it seems as though our girl Ari reached
a massive milestone following the big VMA
night!
She now has a whopping 200 million followers
on Instagram, making her the MOST FOLLOWED
female on the platform!
Sayonara Selena Gomez, Kylie Jenner & Dwayne
‘The Rock’ Johnson, because Miss.
Ariana Grande-Butera just kicked everyone
out of their top spots!
This makes her the first woman to do so, which
basically proves that God actually IS a woman
and it’s none other than Ariana Grande herself.
This milestone makes Ariana the second-most
followed person on the app right after soccer
star Cristiano Ronaldo, who has 238 million
followers.
Ariana’s friend Lady Gaga took to Instagram
shortly after the announcement to congratulate
her friend saying, '”[Congratulations] to
my friend @arianagrande for 200 million followers!
You're a queen!
Wear that crown!'”
Fans of Ari also took to Twitter to congratulate
their favorite icon with one fan writing,
“Girl you hit 200 million followers on Instagram.
You are insane Ariana Grande.”
Someone else wrote, “Congrats 200M Followers
(Instagram) Queen.”
Behind Ariana, we have Selena Gomez and Kylie
Jenner.
Currently, Selena is sitting at 190 million
and Kylie Jenner is sitting at 193 million.
Now, if we’re talking successful celeb Instagrams
then it just wouldn’t be right if we didn’t
talk about Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson AKA
the KING of Instagram.
We all know that he’s the highest paid actor
when it comes to Hollywood AND when it comes
to his Instagram.
According to reports, his Instagram revenue
has grown 15 percent over the past year and
he now rakes in more than one million dollars
per Instagram post.
With more than 180 million followers he’s
definitely giving influencers a run for their
money.
This marks the first year a Kardashian-Jenner
didn’t nab the coveted spot with Kylie Jenner
coming in at number two earning an average
of $986,000 per post.
According to Hopper, following the controversy
with Kylie’s billionaire status, her earnings
fell nearly 22 percent.
Ouch!
But not to worry, Kylie was in good company
with big sister Kim Kardashian who nabbed
the number four spot bringing in $858,000
per post.
Following Kim, brings us back to our girl
Ariana who earns $853,000 per post.
Also included in the list is Selena Gomez,
Beyonce Knowles, Justin Bieber, and even Taylor
Swift.
