Cristiano Ronaldo Becomes the First Player to Achieve this Feat.
Portugal’s forward player, Cristiano Ronaldo has continued demonstrating his importance both on and off the field by setting new records and reaching another landmark.
The Portuguese man has made history yet again, as he became the first person to receive the most likes on an Instagram post in the world’s history. Ronaldo shared a photo of himself and Lionel Messi on his official Instagram account, in which the pair can be seen playing cheese on a Louis Vuitton bag.
The bag was featured in an advertisement by Louis Vuitton, and it was also utilized to transport the World Cup trophy at the opening ceremony.
At the time of publication, the Instagram post had nearly 35 million likes. Lionel Messi’s likes for the identical image on his Instagram account totalled nearly 27 million.

The 5x Ballon d’Or winner is one of the world’s most powerful persons because of the empire he has built.
With the help of Lionel Messi, Ronaldo recently lit the internet on fire. The world was surprised when the two GOATs created an iconic image for Louis Vuitton’s latest ad campaign. As if that wasn’t enough, Portugal’s all-time leading scorer has done it again. He is the world’s first person to have 500 million Instagram followers.
Ronaldo has been the most-followed person on Instagram for a while now. In September 2021, “Cristiano” became the most-followed account after hitting 237 million followers. Since then, Ronaldo has been sitting on the throne comfortably. Many may think that Kylie Jenner is the second most-followed person on Instagram. However, Lionel Messi sits in second place with 376 million followers.
Kylie Jenner, who has been in the top 5 of the list for several years, is third, followed by Selena Gomez and Dwayne The Rock Johnson. Brazilian sensation Neymar Jr. is another player ranked in the top 25. He has 182 million followers. It may be far short of Ronaldo’s 500 million, owing to how long the United star has been in the game.
Ronaldo is one of the soccer world’s most successful businessmen. He has turned Instagram into a money-making machine for him. Several rumours claim that Ronaldo makes roughly $2 million for each social media post.
This figure, which is unrivalled, displays Cristiano’s power in our technologically advanced culture.
