Highest ever paid celebrities on Instagram

Have you ever wondered how much the highest-paid Instagram celebs get for a cheeky swipe up? It’s a lot, according to recent research from a famous social media planner. It’s no surprise that celebrities like Kylie Jenner and Dwayne Johnson have transformed their internet personas into money-making engines, asking exorbitant sums for sponsored posts or endorsements.

Its been a decade, brands and businesses have leaned heavily on ambassadors to promote their products, resulting in a burgeoning influencer economy. You’re bound to swipe through the next Married At First Sight or Bachelor contestant promoting a new skin cream or skinny tea if you go on Instagram at any time.

While the shift from reality star to an influencer can be profitable, it pales in comparison to the sums paid to Instagram’s highest-paid celebs. A number of social media-savvy actors and singers have made surprising forays into the world of social media. Kylie Jenner, a member of the Kardashian family, topped the list of most paid Instagram users last year.
