In second place is Selena Gomez, who has more than double the number of Instagram followers than Taylor at 430.4 followers but receives fewer likes on average, at 6.1 million per post. Earlier this year, Selena found herself in a media frenzy amid a feud with Kylie Jenner and Hailey Bieber. More recent headlines have spotted her enjoying a New York night out with Taylor Swift and Sophie Turner.

The actress is not only known for her role in films and TV series Euphoria but also for her fashion moments such as attending events like the Louis Vuitton show in Paris.

21-year-old Jenna Ortega comes in fourth place with 4.3 million Instagram likes on average. The most popular post by Jenna has gained 19.7 million likes, on the 17^th of December 2022, styling a Dolce & Gabbana black outfit and tie. Jenna has recently been honoured at this year’s Harper Bazaars Women of the Year Awards.

In fifth place is Billie Eilish, who has 70.2 million more followers than Jenna Ortega, with 3.4 million Instagram likes on average. In recent posts, Billie has been starring in a paid partnership with Gucci, featuring the new Horsebit 1955 bag in Demetra, a vegan alternative to leather.

Stranger Thing’s actor Noah Schnapp followed closely behind in sixth place, with 3 million likes on average.  The actor earlier this year attended his first-ever Pride in New York after coming out.

In seventh place is Ariana Grande with 2.9 million Instagram likes on average and the third biggest Instagram following Selina Gomez and Kylie Jenner, at 381 million. Ariana had social media in a storm after separating from her ex-Dalton Gomez and rumoured to be dating co-star Ethan Slater.

21-year-old Sadie Sink is in eighth place, with 2.6 million likes on average out of her 26.5 million Instagram followers. Just after that is Kylie Jenner, who has 399 million Instagram followers and an equivalent of 2.3 million likes on average. Sadie, who appeared in Stranger Things alongside Noah Schnapp, has been announced as Armani Beauty’s new face this year.

Finally, rounding off the list in tenth place is Olivia Rodrigo, with 2.1 million Instagram likes on average. The singer has recently revealed her new song that will feature in the upcoming Hunger Games prequel.

•     A spokesperson for Netinfluencer.com commented on the findings: “The biggest celebrities in the US gain attention from all over the world, so it’s interesting to see which celebrities are gaining the most active attention on their posts. It could be a big surprise to people to see celebrities with very big followings, such as Kim Kardashian, J-Lo, and Beyonce, are not in the top 10 most liked but it’s important to remember that a big following doesn’t always mean they are receiving the most likes or have a high engagement rate on their profile.”
