With her 380,380,818 followers, Kylie Jenner lost out to actress and singer Selena Gomez. She currently has 381,689,999 followers on Instagram. Selena was previously awarded this title in 2019, but was overtaken by pop princess Ariana Grande, who in turn had to pass the torch to Kylie Jenner.
Selena may be incredibly popular on the platform, but the singer herself has labeled Instagram as ‘toxic’ several times. At the beginning of February she said the following to ‘Vanity Fair’: “There may be thousands of nice comments, but my thoughts immediately go to the mean ones. People can call me ugly or stupid or whatever.” The reactions touched her so much that she has since outsourced her account to an assistant. The ‘Only Murders in the Building’ star forwards content to her, after which she posts it online. “The only thing I still have on my phone is TikTok, because I find it less ‘hostile’. Although there are also great things about social media, like being able to connect with fans and see how happy and excited they are about things.”
