The Top 10 Highest-Earning Instagram Stars

1. Cristiano Ronaldo

633 million followers
$3,432,000 per post

Cristiano Ronaldo continues to sit at the top of the list with the highest-ever potential earning, making an average of $ 3.4 million per post compared to $3.2 million per post last year. Not only is Cristiano Ronaldo at the forefront of the Instagram rich list but also the top 2024 Social Media Unicorn, with a total following of 945,000,000 million.

2. Lionel Messi

503 million followers
$2,731.000 per post

It’s no surprise that Lionel Messi places himself right behind his competitor Ronaldo. The increase of around 30 million followers may have come from his successful move to MLS and media partnership with Apple TV last summer, but it’s also inextricably linked to who he is as a person.

3. Selena Gomez

426 million followers
$2,560,000 per post

Selena Gomez still holds strong in 3rd place on the Instagram Richlist. With not much change in followers or price per post, she continues to be the most followed female profile in the world. Even though recently shared her relationship with Benny Blanco, this has not impact her presence one bit!

4. Kylie Jenner

399 million followers
$2,395,000 per post

Kylie Jenner, who used to be the runner-up, has fallen to 4th place in the 2023 Instagram Rich List but continues to hold her position for 2024. With the release of her new brand, Khy, you would think that her popularity would have increased more than just 2 million, however, she might have not gotten the success she hoped for with it.

5. Dwayne Johnson

396 million  followers
$2,382,000 per post

Dwayne Johnson, commonly known as “The Rock” continues at 5th on the 2024 Rich List, the same position as in 2023 and 2022.  However, with a 9 million increase in followers since last year, proven to be one of the social media favorites. It might be due to his presence in several types of entertainment, from movies to game shows like Titan that came out on Netflix earlier this year.

6. Ariana Grande

378 million followers
$2,272,000 per post

Ariana Grande with an increase of 1 million followers, still holds at 6th place in the 2024 Instagram Rich List. The release of her most recent album “Internal Sunshine” is most likely the culprit of this slight jump in followings. We may be looking at another jump in followers with the release of her next movie “Wicked”.

7. Kim Kardashian

361 million followers
$2,172,000 per post

At 7th place you can find Kim Kardashian, who’s dropped down to this position since 2022 as she has gotten quite a bit of backlash when it comes to her partnership with Balenciaga. Now she has lost another 1 million followers, which many are relating to the diss track, “thanK you aIMee” in Talor Swifts new album.

8. Beyonce

317 million followers
$1,908,000 per post

Beyonce however, has kept her eighth place for the fourth year in a row! The Queen B continues to keep her place in the top 10 richest Instagram celebrities. Her Renassiance Tour where her daughter Blue Ivy was present, has contributed to the 3 million increase in followers.

9. Khloe Kardashian

310 million followers
$1,865,236 per post

Khloe Kardashian jumps to 9th place, shown to be a favourite amongst the Kardashian fans. Making her the 3rd best-paid Kardashian/Jenner after Kylie and Kim. Having had a tough time with her relationship with Tristian Thompson and the birth of her second child, she has won her fans’ hearts. 

10. Justin Bieber

293 million followers
$1,762,436 per post

Justin Bieber continues to hold the 10 best-paid Instagram celebrities, his following and cost per post however, haven’t made much growth compared to 2023. With Hailey Biebers’ recent pregnancy announcement, we should expect Justin to fall lower in the rankings as he starts his “dad life”.
