If you thought Instagram was just for massively over-filtering photos of your lunch, then you’d be wrong.
We all know Real Madrid megastar, Cristiano Ronaldo is ridiculously talented. But the amount he makes off of a single Instagram pic is actually pretty much!
The photo-sharing app is big, big business these days, especially when it comes to promoting products, celebrities, and the products that celebrities are using.
According to data compiled by Hopper, Ronaldo makes approximately $400,000 (£309,429) every time he posts one of these:
In other words, the man makes enough to buy a house every time he throws on a branded T-shirt snaps a selfie for his 103 million followers. And he doesn’t even top “Instagram’s Rich List.”
He ranks third in the “Instagram rich list” as the top-earning male in the world, just ahead of reality star Kylie Jenner (he’s paid the same as her, but has more followers).
The crown goes to Selena Gomez, who gets a $550,000-check cut every time she posts sponsored content. The Kardashian clan takes four of the ten spots, while Lebron James brings up the rear with a measly $120,000 per post.
