Ariana Grande Just Overtook Selena Gomez As The Most Followed Woman On Instagram

Selena held the overall top spot on the social media platform for two whole years.

Ariana Grande had surpassed Selena Gomez in followers on Instagram.

Selena held the overall top spot on the social media platform for two years, before Cristiano Ronaldo became the most followed person on Insta in October.

Today, the singer was dethroned as most followed woman by Ariana after she took a four month break from the app beginning last September. She returned to social media in January, thanking fans for their “love and support.”

In January, a source explained to E! that Selena has made a conscious decision to post very rarely on her account. “She isn’t going to be posting much on social because she is more aware of how social takes a toll on her mental health, but she will be updating her fans once in a while,” the source said.
Ariana Grande overtook Selena in followers this morning. Ari currently has 146,382,566 followers while Selena has 146,299,847.

The news comes shortly after Ariana was announced as the headliner act for Manchester Pride, as she is set to return to the city for the first time since her One Love benefit concert for the victims of the Manchester attacks in 2017.
