    Selena Gomez previously held the top spot

    We're the first to admit that we're addicted to Instagram and spend a ridiculous amounts of time scrolling through celebrity Instagram pictures.

    Beyoncé took to Instagram to announce that there are two celebrity babies on the way (almost breaking the internet in the process), as she and husband Jay-Z are expecting twins. Together they all make a family of five along with their daughter, Blue Ivy Carter, who is five years old.

    Queen Bey claimed the Insta crown from Selena Gomez, who had managed to rack up 6.3 million likes on a picture of her with a bottle of Coca Cola.

    While most normal people struggle to get anywhere near 100 likes on a single Instagram photo, some people (we're looking at you, Taylor Swift), regularly notch up millions of likes on every single post. Here are the rest of the celebrities who hold a place in the top 10 most liked Instagram photos of all time.
