Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 28 Sep, 2016 01:05 PM
    LOS ANGELES — Selena Gomez isn't keeping her Instagram account to herself. The pop star has become the most followed celebrity on the popular photo sharing site.
     
    Gomez's Instagram account became the first to hit the 100-million follower mark this week.
     
    The "Hands to Myself" and "Same Old Love" signer now tops such fellow celebrity Instagramers as Taylor Swift (91.4 million), Beyonce (85.3 million), Ariana Grande (85 million) and Kim Kardashian West (83.6 million).
     
    The last photo she posted was an image of herself on stage six weeks ago.
     
    Gomez said in a statement last month that she's taking a break from the spotlight to deal with anxiety, panic attacks and depression stemming from her battle with lupus.
     
    The singer said in a statement to People magazine that she wanted "to be proactive and focus on maintaining my health and happiness and have decided that the best way forward is to take some time off."
