The Queen of pop stopped her fans in their tracks yesterday when she did the unimaginable! She started following exactly one person on Instagram.
Until now Beyonce hadn’t followed anyone, but continued to post to her 23.2 million followers.
Beyonce doesn’t follow anyone on her Instagram account, not her sister Solange, husband Jay-Z, or her girlfriends from Destiny’s Child. Within minutes her fan instantly swarmed to the lucky Instagram user’s page.
The fan with the Instagram name @thaisalcosta the was flooded with questions about her relationship with the popstar. It took no time for the account to gain thousands of followers.
Instagram’s servers slowed during this time. It is unclear if the two situations were related (but we are almost certain they are).
Theories began circulating, our favourites were:
Theory #1: Blue Ivy had too much fun playing on her mummy’s phone on her birthday.
Theory #2: Beyoncé herself granted someone a once in a lifetime opportunity to interact with her on Instagram.
It wasn’t long after that Beyonce unfollowed @thaisalcosta before the fan set her account to private.
It looks like Beyonce still runs this world.
