Die-hard fans — and the media — are always on the lookout for who dethrones who on any platform (remember when Ariana Grande de-throned Selena Gomez for most-followed woman on the app? We’d say “the drama,” but to be honest, we imagine they’re totally supportive of each other.) 

In our research, we discovered that the stars with the most followers are The Kardashians, pop stars, and soccer players. With millions upon millions of followers, Ariana Grande, Selena Gomez, Taylor Swift, Kendall and Kylie Jenner, Kim Kardashian, Beyonce and more are among the celebs that have made the cut for the most-followed accounts on Instagram.
