Cristiano Ronaldo now has 1 billion followers on social media. He is the first person to reach this incredible number. This includes followers on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Weibo, and Kuaishou. Not all of these are individual people, some are fake accounts. Experts say it’s a big achievement that media and brands will pay attention to.
Ronaldo is more popular on social media than Lionel Messi and other famous singers and YouTubers. He recently joined YouTube and quickly gained 50 million subscribers. Messi, on the other hand, has only 3.5 million subscribers because he doesn’t upload many videos.
Ronaldo is known for breaking records in football, and now he’s breaking records on social media too. He’s also the highest-earning athlete, making $260 million according to Forbes. Ronaldo continues to succeed on and off the field.
