It's no secret that Instagram is swarming with bots. With that in mind, every time a celebrity (or an egg!) breaks an Instagram record, it's hard to figure out if they're genuinely reaching a milestone or not. Is Cristiano Ronaldo the most followed person on Instagram or do Ariana Grande and Selena Gomez have more real followers than him? Did an egg actually beat Kylie Jenner's most-liked photo on Instagram or did bots help it? It's impossible to know for certain...until now.
