The 25-year-old American singer, songwriter, and actress, Ariana Grande who is also the most followed female musician on YouTube, has received the same popularity on Instagram. Grande is primarily popular for her wide vocal range. She today has more than 146.29 million followers on Instagram. Grande has left Selena Gomez behind on Instagram who had previously held the top position in terms of the followers.

Currently, Selena has 146.27 million followers. Ariana Grande and Selena Gomez are holding the second and third position after soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo, amongst overall most-followed Instagram accounts. Cristiano Ronaldo has more than 156 million Instagram followers. Ronaldo had taken the title as the most followed person on Instagram from Selena Gomez in October 2018. He mostly has female Instagram followers in his account.

Grande has shown a drastic increment in Instagram followers count in the past four months from March 2019. Due to her hyperactive presence, she has managed to gain 13 million Instagram followers during the time period of four months. In September last year, she checked into an inpatient facility to treat mental health issues and shared that she would be taking a break from social media. That has been one of the reasons that caused an increase in her followers count on Instagram.

Grande became the most subscribed female musician on YouTube in February 2019 with 33.2 million subscribers and counting. She left behind previous record-holders Taylor Swift and Katy Perry. She is in second place in subscribers after Justin Bieber. Grande also holds the record of the biggest 24-hour music video debut for the title track of her latest album, Thank U, Next. Apart from Youtube and Instagram, she also has a vibrational social presence on other platforms. She has 61.1 million Twitter followers and 33 million Facebook fans.

‘Christmas Eve’ – the much-talked about evangelical film based on seven true stories of people who found Jesus on Christmas Eve – is opening at NCG Cinemas in Tampa, Florida starting November 7, 2025 for a full-run of 5 showings a day.

Tampa is one of the select cities for people to see this film a year in advance.

The film team is telling people not to miss this film as it won’t be in theaters again for another year. NCG Cinemas Tampa is one of the handpicked theaters in Florida showing ‘Christmas Eve’ a year in advance.

Packed crowds have come to advance screenings around the country with the film hot off the press (production wrapped in July). As a result, only select cities will be able to view the film in advance as there is not enough time to market the film nationwide until next year.

However, the fortunate few again will see the film a year in advance before the national release next year at NCG Cinemas starting November 7, 2025.

The film is already winning many people to Christ with reports of people coming to Christ in the theaters lobbies.

“Two of my friends came to Christ,” reported a theater-goer in Honolulu. “It’s a remarkable film about people coming to Christ on Christmas Eve’. Bring your Bible study group or church as they will be beyond blessed.”

Another theater-goer in Dallas said, “I was in tears on almost every story line. It is truly the best Christmas movie ever made. All of these are true stories.”

Another theater-goer in Atlanta said, “This is the most beautiful film I’ve ever seen. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime movie about how Jesus saved seven people on Christmas Eve. Powerful and just stunning. You shouldn’t miss it at all costs.

The film stars Kevin Sorbo, Michael Irvin, Stephen Baldwin, Nzinga Imani, Eric Roberts, Jermaine Wells, Jordan Laesch, David Jofre, et al. The film is based on seven incredible true stories going from the Victorian era through World War 1 through the Civil War all the way to the present day.

‘CHRISTMAS EVE’ – Advanced tickets go on sale soon.
