Cristiano Ronaldo is not just a football player, he is a brand in himself! The 37-year-old is one of the most beloved athletes across the globe and his fan following is way beyond anyone's imagination. He has around 408 million followers on Instagram, which is the highest for any individual on social media platform by some margin. And what happened recently is just a true demonstration of CR7's astonishing number of supporters.

Ahead of Manchester United's crucial game against Manchester City, Ronaldo came on Instagram Live. However, he was not in a mood to interact with anyone. Instead, he was just sharing a glimpse of what he was up to at that moment of time. Any other celebrity doing it might have resulted in people dropping out from the session but it was the Cristiano Ronaldo factor which kept the supporters glued to their screens.
