Famous Faces of Instagram

Rebecca Males takes scroll through Instagram’s visual culture and shares some popular accounts.

They say a picture’s worth 1000 words. Well, they used to say that. It’s now 1000 Insta followers.

First there was Big Brother. Now there is Instagram.

There are a lot of talented people on this social networking site; however, there are also a lot of people who would definitely apply to Big Brother had Instie not been invented.

Here we pay tribute to the talented ones, and the… others.

Dan Bilzerian
@danbilzerian

In case you missed it, Instagram’s most famous playboy Dan Bilzerian threw a porn star off a roof last week. We wish we were joking.

His feed is generally a stream of boobs, alcohol, helicopters, cars, more boobs, guns, and money. This has garnered him 1.8m followers.

Jen Selter
@jenselter

Arguably the most famous ass on Instagram – it has 3.3m followers, and Jen was recently featured in Vanity Fair. Fair play to the woman. She’s also the lady behind seltering.

Jenna Marbles
@jennamarbles

If you haven’t seen Jenna’s How to trick people into thinking you’re good looking vid, you’re excused to leave for 2.4 minutes.

Follow for cute/hilarious pics of her dogs, Kermit and Marbles, and Jenna generally looking swell.

Eelco Roos
@croyable

You know those people who put your finest DSLR photography to shame with an iPhone? Yeah? Well @croyable is like all of them, combined, at once.

He’s a Dutch photographer, and only uses his iPhone to take pictures for this account.

Follow if you want to feel severely lacklustre about your future career as a photographer.

Johanne Shuebl
@johanneshuebl

Ah, how the other half live. Then there’s how this guy lives – beautiful fiancee (Olivia Palermo), a lot of travels, and a dress sense that should be obligatory in most countries.

Nikki Sharp
@staysharpbestrong

So apparently she was a model at one point, now she’s a fitness guru (natural progression apparently. First model. Then pick a field. Slam ‘expert’ after it).

Either way, she’s very pretty, and a lot of people swear by her 5 Day Detox.

Expect yoga on a mountain top, zucchini pasta and a lot of “inspirational” quotes.

Leandra Medine
@manrepeller

Aside from the fact she dresses unbelievably well, and runs a successful blog about it, Medine also seems like a genuinely nice person.

Her unconventional perspective makes her a breath of fresh air in a feed of fitspo, #whatihadfordinner and duck selfies.

Do you think I missed any accounts out? #dogsofinstagram? Let me know!
