10 Most Influential People on the Internet PART 2.....!!!

Lele Pons

At 19, Pons isn't just the most-watched person on Vine (where her six-second videos have been played 7.9 billion times); she's one of the most-watched people on all of social media. Fans flock to the native Venezuelan, who is credited with coining the phrase “doing it for the Vine,” for her practical jokes, which she plays on friends, family and even strangers. But her profile is rising: In October, Michelle Obama invited Pons to the White House to create a Vine advocating for children's education. And her popularity across multiple social media platforms—including Instagram, Twitter and YouTube—has helped her make ad deals with big-name brands, such as HP, DirecTV, Coca-Cola, Starbucks and Guitar Hero.—

Cristiano Ronaldo

Although the soccer star doesn't post as often as some of his contemporaries, he is far and away the most popular athlete on social media and the undisputed king of Facebook, touting some 110 million followers. He's also only the third celebrity to reach 200 million combined followers across Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, joining previous Time listees Taylor Swift and Justin Bieber. His posts on Facebook and Instagram, in particular, garner an average of one million interactions each, helping Ronaldo earn $27 million a year in off-field endorsement deals.—

Narendra Modi

The leader of the world's largest democracy is also an Internet star, boasting more than 18 million Twitter followers and over 32 million Facebook likes. And unlike some of his contemporaries, he often uses social media to break news and conduct diplomacy. On Christmas Day, for example, Modi tweeted that he would visit the Pakistani city of Lahore to wish Nawaz Sharif, the leader of India’s chief regional rival, a happy 66th birthday. On Feb. 12, he also wished a happy birthday to Afghanistan’s Ashraf Ghani. That tweet made headlines for the wrong reasons, though: the Afghan President replied with his thanks, and a polite note that he was actually born on May. 19.—

Lilly Singh (a.k.a. Superwoman)

She may not have as many subscribers as PewDiePie, but the Indo-Canadian vlogger is rapidly becoming one of the biggest stars on YouTube, both on and off-screen. As alter ego Superwoman, she is equal parts funny and motivational, which has helped her amass more than 8 million subscribers and over 1.1 billion total views. She recently landed a national YouTube ad campaign and released her first feature film, a documentary chronicling her 27-city world tour, on YouTube's new paid subscription service; it's called "A Trip to Unicorn Island," a nod to her fans, known as Unicorns.—

Andrew Bachelor (a.k.a. King Bach)

On Vine, the social network for six-second videos, 27-year-old Bachelor commands 15 million followers, more than any other user. His edge: a knack for relatable comedy. Many of his quick videos portray everyday ­scenarios—like trying to get a woman’s ­number—gone awry. Casting directors have taken note: he landed his first major TV acting gig (on Showtime’s House of Lies) within months of his inaugural Vine in 2013. This year he’ll add four feature films to his résumé.—

Kayla Itsines

“Fitspiration"—photos of leafy salads, inspirational quotes and well-posed gym selfies—has become a social-media staple, and no one has leveraged it better than Kayla Itsines. The 24-year-old Aussie trainer has parlayed her line of digital workout and nutrition guides (a.k.a. Bikini Body Guides) into a virtual movement on Instagram, on which her supporters post before-and-after images using hashtags like #BBG, #TheKaylaMovement, and #KaylasArmy. Itsines often shares the most dramatic results with her 4.6 million followers, which both engages her followers and evangelizes her brand. W hile some have criticized Itsines' methods, her empire continues to grow; her Sweat with Kayla app, for example, continues to chart in the health and fitness section of the App Store.—

Kim Kardashian West

Kim Kardashian West is one of the most-watched people on the planet, with more than 120 million followers across Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and Snapchat. Most recently, she made headlines for posting, and then ardently defending, a series of nude selfies. "I am empowered by showing the world my flaws and not being afraid of what anyone is going to say about me," she wrote. "And I hope that through this platform I have been given, I can encourage the same empowerment for girls and women all over the world." The reality star also launched two new mobile apps in the past year, including Kimoji, which features icons of her famous derriere and "ugly cry" face.

Drake

More than perhaps any other artist, Drake understands the power of a meme. Last year, he released a strikingly simple video for "Hotline Bling"—most shots were of him doing goofy dance moves amid a neon backdrop—that all but begged to be parodied. And the Internet obliged, churning out countless GIFs, Vines and spoofs that helped make the song his biggest hit to date. More recently, Drake tapped meme culture to settle a score, using fan-made images to taunt rival Meek Mill during a performance.—

Helen Van Winkle (a.k.a. Baddiewinkle)

It's never to late to reinvent yourself, especially on the Internet. For proof, look no further than Helen Van Winkle, the 87-year-old Tennessean whose newfound love of eccentric clothing—which she says she uses to cope with the passing of her husband and son—has made her an Instagram sensation. Two years after starting the @baddiewinkle account (her great- granddaughter's idea), she touts some 1.8 million followers, including Miley Cyrus and Nicole Richie. Now she's even started to nab fashion campaigns and invites to A-list events.—

Josh Ostrovsky (a.k.a. The Fat Jew)

Josh Ostrovsky's outrageous alter ego rose to fame over the past few years by sharing funny photos and memes with his millions of Twitter and Instagram followers, often without attribution. (He also wrote a book, Money Pizza Respect, and started a wine label, White Girl Rose.) But his fame reached a tipping point in August. Shortly after news broke that Ostrovsky had signed with talent agency CAA, several prominent comedians—including Patton Oswalt and Chelsea Peretti—mocked him for building a career off of stolen material, kicking off a debate about the ethics of aggregating online content. Eventually, Ostrovsky apologized and vowed to credit all his posts in the future
