Many of us love to take Instagram-worthy photos and let our family and friends see what we’re up to - and so do many local celebs.
While it is likely that some accounts are managed by PR teams or agents, many local celebrities take pride in managing their own Instagram feeds and stories, showing off their homes, outfits and day to day lives.
As social media is the main way many young people consume content, the number of Instagram followers a person has can be a good indicator of how relevant they are to certain demographics.
