Beyoncé Just Claimed Yet Another Record: the Most "Liked" Instagram Photo EVER

Beyoncé's pregnancy announcement shocked everyone within minutes of her posting the news on Instagram. The singer caused so much buzz that within 45 minutes of her post, Twitter had already generated more than half a million tweets about it. With that in mind, it makes sense that it only took Beyoncé a few hours to claim Instagram's most "liked" photo trophy. You can see the photo below (if for some unforsaken reason you still hadn't seen it).

According to Instagram, Beyoncé's photo received more than 7.2 million likes in less than 24 hours and beat Selena Gomez, the previous record holder, in 11 hours. That's not the only record Beyoncé beat; she also "shattered" the Guinness World Record for the most "liked" Instagram photo.

Though Selena Gomez has now lost her record, she is still Instagram's most followed person. Selena's photo was her sipping on a Coke with her lyrics printed on it. The record holders before that include Justin Bieber, Kendall Jenner, and Kim Kardashian. Based on the comments the Beyhive is leaving on both Beyoncé's and Selena's Instagrams, we're sure Beyoncé will hold onto to this title for a very long time.
