The lyrics on the bottle are from the Share a Coke and a Song campaign Coca-Cola had with Gomez, who, with over 89.6 million followers, is also the most popular person on Instagram. The photo features all the hallmarks of a classic pin up style photo, amazing hair, vibrant colors… and a soda.
So what makes that photo so special compared to, say, this one:

Maybe I’m biased because I love s’mores, but this photo is seriously underrated. I mean, it’s no slouch in the likes department, but it’s no where near four million and counting likes. C’mon people, s’mores! And Gomez. But S’MORES!
And then there’s this one, featuring more food!

In case you’re wondering, Gomez insists she did not rent out a grocery store just to get this shot.
When looking for the next photo, Gomez says, “I try to find a good balance of just being 100 percent myself and knowing when to post a really good selfie with good lighting.”

Dated nearly three years ago, this is one of the earliest selfies posted to Gomez’s Instagram account. Back then, she averaged around 500-thousand likes per photo.
The previous most liked photograph on Instagram came from Justin Bieber’s account, featuring, you guessed it, Selena Gomez.
