A photo of an egg is Instagram’s most liked photo ever

It’s literally just an egg.

When it comes to Instagram likes, what do you view as a successful post?

For some people, it could be hitting the 100 mark, for others it could be far more, and some of us are just happy to break double digits.

But whatever you’re getting for your selfies, we can guarantee it’s nowhere near what this egg is getting.

Last week, a page was set up under the name “World_Record_Egg”, and their goal was quite simple – to have the most liked Instagram post of all time.

Previously, it had been the announcement of the birth of Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott’s baby, which had a healthy 18 milion likes, so the egg was setting the bar pretty high.

And as of Sunday night, we are delighted to announce that the egg picture is now officially the most liked picture in Instagram’s history.

At the time of writing, the egg has over 23 million likes. Yep. 23 million.

Have a look at it below, in all of its glory.
