If someone asked you – who is the richest influencer in the world and earns the most from Instagram posts, you’d likely automatically assume it was Kylie Jenner or Kim Kardashian, thanks to their huge empires, right?
Both of them earn a huge amount from social media, but their posts don’t rake in as much as this one Disney star.
According to Yahoo Finance, there are two people who pip the star to the post – Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.
Cristiano Ronaldo earns a huge $3.23 million (£2.6m) per Instagram post he puts out to his 647m followers.
While his Argentinean rival Lionel Messi pockets $2.59m (£2.1m) per social media post to his 504m followers.
But the world’s richest female influencer isn’t far behind, as she can rake in a humungous $2.55m (£2.1m) per Instagram post made for her 422m followers.
She posts advertisements for products from her own beauty line on her page, her engagement announcement, and even pictures of her smooching her beau.
People in the comments section say things like: “You’re absolutely stunning; I fall more in love with you every day” on their dedicated fan accounts.
It’s true that Kylie Jenner isn’t too far behind this influencer, as she boasts earnings of $2.38m (£2m) per post thanks to her influence on young women everywhere.
But who is it that’s pipped the Kardashian-Jenners to the post, even earning more than Justin Bieber and Zoe Sugg, aka Zoella, combined per Instagram post?
Justin Bieber can rake in $1.76m (£1.44m) per post, and Zoella reportedly makes around £12,600 from hers, which is still a tidy sum of money for a picture or short clip.
But it’s Selena Gomez who pips them to the post. With her net worth of $1billion, a beauty brand many people adore, and an enviable music career, it’s clear to see why she’s so popular on social media.
Selena starred in ‘Wizards of Waverly Place’ from 2007 to 2012, and is also a pop singer, releasing tunes like ‘Come and Get It,’ and ‘Same Old Love’.
Off the back of that, she was able to start a beauty brand, and become extremely popular on social media thanks to her carefully curated feed.
Selena also recently got engaged to producer Benny Blanco, causing a stir on her social media.
