"The research, conducted by BestAUCasinoSites, analyzed the Instagram profiles of top celebrity power couples across entertainment sectors, to determine... which can be deemed the most influential on social media...

Wondering which Grand Prairie native is one-half of the number 1 power couple? We'll get to it but first, let's rundown her fellow Texans who also made the list.

Coming in eighth place are Nick Jonas (Dallas, TX) and his wife Priyanka Chopra. The couple have 125.9 million followers on their accounts, "with Chopra’s latest post of the two garnering over 1 million likes so far. For a sponsored piece, Priyanka Chopra can charge up to $266,900, whilst Nick Jonas can secure up to $129,700 per post."

Number four goes to Beyoncé (Houston, TX) and her husband Jay-Z. Their profiles garner approximately 320.3 million followers. "For a sponsored post, Beyoncé can earn a sum of up to $703,600.

And finally, number one on the list goes to Selena Gomez (Grand Prairie, TX) and her boyfriend Benny Blanco. Together, the pair have a combined following of over 431 million, with Gomez being the most followed female on the platform and "potentially earning up to $883,400 per sponsored post.
