JAKARTA - Cristiano Ronaldo is now the first person to reach 300 million followers on the social network Instagram, The Sun reported on Saturday.

Quoted from ANTARA, the 36-year-old soccer superstar holds the title of the most followed person on the planet and is well ahead of Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson in second with 246 million.

While his rival, Lionel Messi is in eighth position with 219 million followers. Only one account on the platform that has more followers than Ronaldo is the official Instagram account with 397 million.

Pop singer Ariana Grande follows at 244 million followers, while Kylie Jenner has 241 million.

Singer Selena Gomez has 238 million people who follow her account and celebrity Kim Kardashian with 229 million.

Barcelona and Argentina captain Lionel Messi touched 219 million followers and Beyonce followed with 186 million followers.

Ronaldo's immense influence as the world's most followed person was again demonstrated this week when he moved a Coca Cola bottle at the Euro 2020 press conference.

Ronaldo's act of shifting two bottles of Coca Cola during a press conference had a very significant impact on stock movements on the New York Stock Exchange. The Portuguese star is known as an athlete who supports a healthy living program.
