Selena Gomez  has became the first woman to have 400 million Instagram followers on Friday, just weeks after dethroning Kylie Jenner as the social media platform.

Gomez, 30, is the third most followed person on Instagram behind soccer players Cristiano Ronaldo, who has 562 followers, and Lionel Messi, who has 442 million people watching his every move.

The feat comes less than a month after surpassing Jenner as the most-followed woman on the social media platform.

The Wolves singer was previously the most followed woman on the site back in 2019 before Ariana Grande beat her to the post, with Kylie, 25, later overtaking them. 

Many of the singer's fans have been rejoicing at the news, proclaiming Selena 'the queen of Instagram'.

Taking to Twitter, one user wrote: 'Selena Gomez is once again the most followed woman on Instagram. Queen is back!'

Another user said: 'She's back on her throne. Selena, queen of Instagram!' while a third called her: 'The OG queen of Instagram'. 

A fourth said: 'Selena Gomez is now the most followed female artist on Instagram and Tiktok. A global queen.'

Although she boasts millions of followers, Selena recently told Vanity Fair she has stepped back from social media and only has the TikTok app on her phone.

The star added she was hurt by 'mean' comments from trolls and also saw using the platforms too much as a 'waste of time'.
