Move over Selena Gomez, Ariana Grande is the new QUEEN of Instagram 👑
Ariana Grande has overtaken Selena!
Not a single day goes by without us spending hours scrolling through our Instagram feeds getting super jealous by all of our favourite celebrities showing off their glamours lifestyles. And whilst Selena Gomez has held the female crown of having the most followers for a while now, the singer has just been overtaken by none other than one of her Disney co-stars!
Introducing the brand new Queen of Instagram... Ariana Grande! 👑
Ariana, who dropped her massive new album 'Thank u, Next' earlier this month, has surpassed Selena's follower count. At the time of publication, Ariana has a massive 146,358, 640 followers, whilst Selena has 146,296,553.
Of course, Ariana is much more active on social media, sharing 3.943 photos, to Selena's 1,473.
Despite both Ariana and Selena having a ridiculous amount of followers, they aren't actually the most followed person on the site.
That goes to Juventus and Portugal footballer Cristiano Ronaldo, who has an insane 155, 933, 251 people following him! 😱

In other Ariana news, it was confirmed yesterday (Monday 25th February) that Ariana will be returning to Manchester in August to headline Manchester Pride Live.
The event marks Ariana Grande's first show back in Manchester since the One Love Manchester concert in 2016, which raised thousands of pounds for the victims of the Manchester bombing, which targeted fans leaving her concert at the Manchester Arena on 22nd May.
Manchester Pride Live will take place throughout the Mayfield site based in the Piccadilly area of Manchester and will feature a number of performance spaces including a huge 9000 capacity outdoor performance space 'The Yard'. The cavernous indoor Depot will play host to DJs and dance acts and 'The Sorting Room' will host street food market, bars and another stage area hosting pop-up performances.
Hits Radio is once again a media partner of the Manchester Pride Festival and will be bring you all the action live across the Bank Holiday weekend.
There are three ticket options for Manchester Pride Live. The Rainbow Pass Saturday (£34.50), Sunday (£38.50) or Weekend (£64.50) also provides unlimited weekend access to The Gay Village Party. These tickets provide access to each of Manchester Pride Live performance areas, pop up performances and fairground.
For those that don’t want to attend Manchester Pride Live the Gay Village Party will be the heart of the Manchester Pride Festival with the ultimate street party. With community performances in Sackville Gardens, plus markets and parties across the village’s venues, it will continue to be home to the hub of the festival’s LGBT+ celebration.
For more information, and to get tickets head to Manchester Pride website.
