Kyle Jenner Tops The Top 20 Highest Paid Celebrities On Instagram

Posted: 25 Jul 2019 11:00 PM PDT

Kyle Jenner Tops The Top 20 Highest Paid Celebrities On Instagram
The list, compiled by Instagram scheduling tool HopperHQ, reveals that a single sponsored post on Jenner's Instagram is estimated to cost $1.266 million – up from her estimated cost last year of $1 million, a surge of 27%. While valuable, Jenner's sponsored posts are rare since the billionaire now spends most of her time promoting her own businesses, Kylie Skin and Kylie Cosmetics.

Singer Ariana Grande seems set to purchase more than just seven rings this year, as HopperHQ also revealed she had "joined the list for the first time" – sliding swiftly into second place with $996,000 per post.

Although Grande has 19 million more followers than Jenner (Grande has 159 million while Jenner has 140 million), HopperHQ says the data collected "considers factors such as average engagement, how often they post, industry variables and number of followers".

Other names on the Rich List were similar to the names on the 2018 list, including footballer Cristiano Ronaldo with $975,000 as well as many of Jenner's sisters. Kim Kardashian came in at fourth place with $910,000, while her other siblings were slightly lower down the list with Kendall at 13th with $611,000 and Khloe Kardashian with $598,000.

Lady bags 3 degrees despite welcoming set of twins, expresses joy

Lady bags 3 degrees despite welcoming set of twins, expresses joy
A single mother who has 3 degrees – 2 Bachelors and a Masters degree – to her name has told of the struggles she endured to put herself through school after learning she was pregnant.

Montoya, 23, already had a degree, then went back to school to further her education. Shortly after, she discovered she was pregnant with twins and was advised to leave school. But she persevered and carried the burden alone. She recently graduated with her second bachelor's degree in Cardiovascular Sonography and aasters in Health Science.


Sharing her story, she wrote:

I ALMOST GAVE UP! The Devil really had me. NOTHING could have prepared me for the journey that I've been through…Our program started off with 26 people and I am now 1 of 17 that will be graduating. 5 months after starting my graduate program I found out that I was pregnant. When I told my program director I was expecting he told me I should just take time off and come back next year because it was going to be too hard to finish the program with a baby and "nearly impossible" to do it with two. I went to class every single day literally until the day I gave birth.

I was determined to finish. Only after a week of giving birth via c section I was back in class because i was told it was "unacceptable that I missed a week of school" Who would've known that for the next 15 months I would endure the hardest year of my life.


Being a mother is hard enough but being a single mother to two kids while being a full time student and living away from family and friends literally having no physical support is a different type of hard. I did it all by myself I woke up at 5 AM to get my kids to daycare as soon as the doors opened to be at the hospital for rotations at 7 AM everyday and still being responsible for online work.

I honestly thought dropping out would be the best choice for me, but I knew I couldn't let my kids down and I was only giving the devil what he wanted. I knew I would not only disappoint myself but everyone who was rooting for me. I worked so hard y'all , it was times I cried myself to sleep and asked God why was I alone. Why was I raising two kids alone with no family or friends here to support me while trying to put myself through school But he had a plan for me, and WE made it! I persisted , I finished. I have achieved not one but TWO degrees Two years,two kids and TWO degrees later.

By Gods grace… we didn't just do it , WE MASTERED IT!!!! I am receiving my second bachelors in Cardiovascular Sonography and a Master's in Health Science August 16th, 2019

Kenyans blow hot at Beyonce for not involving them in her Lion King Album

Kenyans Blow Hot at Beyonce for not involving them in her Lion King Album
American singer Beyonce has been called out by some Kenyans for omitting their artistes on her Lion King, saying it is a slap to the face and a damn shame

John Katana , who is the frontman of the Chakacha Kenyan band, Them Mushrooms, who helped coin "Hakuna Matata, t ells TMZ he and a bunch of other Kenyans noticed Bey didn't include any local artists (big or small) in her new 'Lion King' album, "The Gift", a self-described "love letter" to Africa.


While the Disney folks tapped tons of other African artists that are hot and poppin' in their own countries, for example, Nigerian pop star WizKid, Ghanaian producer Shatta Wale, Nigerian singer Burna Boy, South African artists Busiswa and Moonchild Sanelly, Nigerian stars Tekno, Yemi Alade and Mr Eazi — they excluded Keynans.

Considering a lot of the scenery, culture and language used in '94's and 2019's "The Lion King" appears to come straight FROM Kenya (or at least East Africa). John says he and lots of other Kenyan creatives found it puzzling not one of 'em made the cut for "The Gift."

John and music critics alike have noted the omission, and he's super bummed about it, especially since he says no one from Disney even reached out to the "Hakuna Matata" OGs.

A petition was started last year that called for Disney to drop its trademark over "Hakuna Matata," which is a well-known Swahili phrase that John and co. claim to have popularized in their '80s platinum hit, "Jambo Bwana."

Nollywood Movie: 'Iyawo Pastor Koza' gets Toyin Abraham talking
Actress Toyin Abraham and actor Yomi Black have both reacted to the poster of a movie titled 'Iyawo Pastor Koza' released by a Nollywood producer.

The movie's poster which shows top Yoruba actress Fathia Williams on the cover, was shared by Yomi Black with the caption:

"This is not the type of Nollywood flick we were talking about yesterday.! No time".


In reaction, Toyin Abraham wrote:

"I can bet 100% is so fake. someone can change an old movie title to 'one st*pid title'.

From the poster of the movie, one can immediately sense that it is positioned as a parody of the rape allegation leveled by Busola Dakolo against COZA pastor Biodun Fatoyinbo.

The highly publicized rape case has now been given full attention after the Inspector General of Police ordered it to be transferred to Lagos where Busola Dakolo filed her case before Biodun Fatoyinbo filed his in Abuja.

Prince David Osei added that he prompted the director and told him that he had a bleeding gum and cannot kiss the lady.

"We are all doing creative work so you can't have a bad mouth and body odor and come closer to me. It's my health so I won't do it, I will prompt the director and tell him I have a bleeding gum. I did it to some girl on set.

Her mouth was smelling so bad like manhole and told the director that I won't kiss her. It was smelling so bad. I got close to her during the rehearsal and her breath alone was so bad so I decided not to kiss her", Prince David Osei revealed.

The 'ladies man' also indicated that he is very particular about such romantic scenes due to this unfortunate incident.

He also noted that he has never been aroused on set because he always zones himself into the character.
