Ronaldo, who is currently playing in Saudi Arabia, has made a lot of money by endorsing several companies on his account, including the sports website LiveScore, the health brand Therabody, and the cryptocurrency exchange Binance.
The Portuguese singer, who is also a father of five, is a major draw due to the fact that he has 597 million followers on Instagram, which is the most of any user on the site.
Kylie, who is 25 years old, has capitalized on her popularity by promoting cosmetics and swimwear lines that bear her name, as well as the fashion empire of Jean Paul Gaultier.
Lionel Messi, who plays football, is ranked third on the Instagram Rich List. Messi, who is 36 years old, can charge $1.38 million for a sponsored post.
He has 479 million fans on the site and has shared sponsored content for brands like adidas and Budweiser. He is the site’s second-most followed star.
The singer Selena Gomez, who is 30 years old, comes in at number four on the list, followed by the actor Dwayne Johnson, who is 51.
Kylie is ranked higher than her half-sisters Kim Kardashian, 42, and Khloe Kardashian, 39, who are respectively positioned at No. 6 and No. 9. The tenth spot goes to her model sister Kendall, who is 27 years old.
This comes after Kylie confessed that she believed the family had a responsibility to young women who viewed their posts on social media.
She made the following statement: “We have enormous influence, and, like, what are we doing with that power? I simply observe a great number of young women on the internet now who have their images properly edited.
“I went through that period of time as well. I believe that I am in a better place now, however the insecurities that you have may have been caused by other individuals.
