Selena Gomez rules Instagram.

The photo-sharing site released its year-end data Thursday showing the 24-year-old pop star has the most followers of any celebrity (103 million) and was responsible for nearly all of the most-liked celebrity posts in 2016.

That is quite an accomplishment considering the Revival singer has taken the last several months off to take care of the symptoms she has related to Lupus. The ex of Justin Bieber had also checked herself into rehab. She made her return to the spotlight at the AMAs in November.

Gomez also took a 14-week break from Instagram, but then shared a black and white image with her fans on Thanksgiving which received over 56,000 likes in the first two minutes.

Selena beat out bestie Taylor Swift, who has 93.6 million followers. Beyonce trailed closely behind with 88.9 million followers.

The Jenner sisters were next - Kylie has 79.5m and Kendall 68.9m.

The only men among the top 10 were soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo (82.3 million followers) and Dwayne Johnson (71 million followers).

Her most popular picture, with 5.2 million likes, is an ad for Coke. It shows the singer in a red dress, her lips around a red-striped straw in a bottle she holds with long red fingernails.

Other popular snaps show her performing onstage and posing with a fan. Ronaldo posted the other two photos on the list: both of him with the Euro 2016 trophy.

Swift, Kim Kardashian and soccer star Leo Messi claimed the other three spots on the list of top celebrity videos. Swift's video is of her cat. Kardashian's and Messi's are of their children.

Apart from the celebrity stats, the site also said that Disney and Universal theme parks were the most popular places among its 500 million active users over the past year. Other oft-Instagrammed spots include New York's Times Square and Central Park and the Eiffel Tower and Louvre museum in Paris.

The site said the most popular emoji in 2016 was the heart and the top hashtag was #love.

Model Bella Hadid poses naked for Flare magazine after topless Vogue shoot

She can't keep a shirt on! Model Bella Hadid poses naked for Flare magazine after THAT topless Vogue shoot

She's frequently seen cavorting about with her elder sister Gigi Hadid.

But Bella Hadid reminded fans she can be quite as enrapturing as a solo act when she covered Flare. The 19-year-old bared her showstopping legs on the front of the Toronto-based magazine, wrapping a black leather jacket about her torso and wearing only Calvin Klein underwear for bottoms.

She also posed topless, something she did earlier this summer for Vogue.

Legs for days: The model wore nothing for bottoms but Calvin Klein underwear for her cover

Like the cover, a string of photos of her inside the magazine were snapped by Nino Muñoz and styled by Isabel Dupré.

Her photographer has shot covers for such magazines as British Vogue, German Glamour, Elle Brazil and Harper's Bazaar Australia.

Though Calvin Klein dominated her wardrobe choices throughout the shoot, a particularly striking photo showed her topless.

A Feathered Souls bracelet and rings were all she wore as she held her arms over her bosom, her drenched hair falling across her face.

Brand loyalty: Apart from her jewelry, all her clothing choices throughout the photo shoot were from Calvin Klein

In another photo, she sat on a stool in a light, fluffy Calvin Klein jumper that fell off one shoulder and flowed down between her spread legs, which straddled the stool in black leather CK boots.

The same designer was her go-to again, when she flashed her impossibly flat midriff from behind an open white jacket that served as her only top.

Her leather pencil skirt was slightly unzipped at the waist, and a simple solitaire choker wound its way about her neck.

Wearing nothing but leather shorts in another picture, she lay down facing away from the camera.

As she folded her arms at her front, she turned to glance mysteriously at something overhead.

Yet another snapshot saw her curled up in the crook of a white sofa. Her wet white Calvin Klein For Urban Outfitters T-shirt hinted at her bust, and she brushed her hair away from her face.

The artist in charge: The snapshots were taken by Nino Muñoz

Folding her legs, she came close to flashing a bit of derrière in her skimpy Seductive Comfort underwear, which once again was from the 73-year-old New Yorker's fashion brand.

Even when she wore his dress shirt and slacks, she infused the outfit with a casual sensuality, opening the shirt completely and exposing much of her cleavage and stomach.

A final topless photo saw her body turned away from the camera but her head twisting toward it. Her sculpted jeans seemed superglued to her pencil thin legs.

Dynasty: The model is the younger sister of modelling star Gigi Hadid and the daughter of former Real Housewife Of Beverly Hills Yolanda Hadid

Glittering company: She is currently dating Canadian musician The Weeknd, whose real name is Abęl Makkonen Tesfaye

The girlfriend of The Weeknd - whose real name is Abęl Makkonen Tesfaye - has had something of a red letter year as far as being a cover girl is concerned.

Recently, she and Victoria's Secret Angel Taylor Hill covered the September issue of Vogue Paris.

Therein, the daughter of Yolanda Hadid posed nude and showed nipple in an elegant black and white photograph by Mert Alaş and Marcus Piggott.

For Vogue Paris alone, the legendary fashion photography team have photographed such figures as Marion Cotillard, Kate Moss, Vanessa Paradis and Carla Bruni.
