BELLA Thorne has claimed she can make £45,000 for just one Instagram post.
The 20-year-old says she’s made so much money through social media that she managed to buy herself a plush £1.4 million home.
Speaking candidly about her extraordinary earnings in a video for , Bella is filmed saying during a phone conversation: “For grid posting it's 65 grand a post.”
Grid posting is believed to mean a picture on the main feed of Instagram, rather than Instagram stories.
She then goes on to reveal what she can get up to £14k for a temporary ‘Story’ post, which lasts just 24 hours, saying: “For story posting it's anywhere from 10 to 20K, and for Snapchat it is the same as Insta Story.”
Bella, who rose to fame as a child star, has an incredible 17.3 million followers on Instagram, as well as nearly 10 million on Facebook.
She continues on the phone: “Facebook has around 10 million followers that's one where if you wanted to do a deal where you're like, Hey give us less here and we'll pay you more for this post and then also on Facebook, you know, I'm down to do something like that too.”
Speaking in the documentary, Bella admits that posting on social media is a job for her and has meant she could buy her own home after finishing her role as CeCe Jones in Shake It Up.
She said: “Instagram is a hundred per cent a job to me. I started out at 18 with literally $200 in my bank account and I bought this house a year later, a year and a half, and that's all from social media.”
