SAMPLE ANSWER
The bar chart details the follower statistics for 5 popular personalities on Instagram in 2018 and 2021. Looking from an overall perspective, it is readily apparent that figures rose for all influencers with Christiano Ronaldo becoming the most followed and Selena Gomez going from most to least popular over the period surveyed.
In 2018, Selena Gomez had by far the most followers at 125 million, more than 10 million above Ariana Grande (112 million) and Ronaldo (110 million). By 2021, Selena’s follower count had nearly doubled to 245 million, while Ronaldo’s surged to lead all celebrities at 315 million and Ariana Grande increased more than twofold to 251 million.
The final two influencers, Kylie Jenner and The Rock, experienced similarly dramatic rising trends. Kylie’s followers were just under 100 million in 2018 and The Rock was slightly lower at around 95 million. Both influencers added approximately 150 million followers with the former finishing at 250 million and the latter modestly higher at 252 million.
