When Stranger Things aired for the first time back in 2016, no one expected the franchise or the cast to be the instantaneous hit that it is. Seven years and a whole pandemic later, the cast is still extremely favored in the eyes of their fans, especially on social media. It is no surprise that throughout the pandemic, everyone used the internet as their escape from being stuck at home, which only added to celebrities increasing their following.

Back in 2022, it was said that Millie Bobby Brown was earning the most on social media when it came to the Stranger Things cast. While that remains true for the cast, it looks as though a famous K-pop star has overshot her and every other member on Instagram.

There is a new highest-paid celeb on Instagram

Even though a study revealed that Millie Bobby Brown, with her 63.5 million followers, was earning the most out of the rest of the cast members for each Instagram post that she shares, it was too good to last forever. According to Hopper HQ, as reported by a fan page, BLACKPINK’s Lisa is now the highest-paid Asian celebrity on Instagram.

The Kpop star has surpassed fan favorite, Millie Bobby Brown, and now earns a whopping $575,000 for each post that she shares. Part of a K-pop girl group, Lisa, is considered to have the most fans in the group. The Thai rapper and her group rose to fame in recent years.

With 96.9 million followers on Instagram, it makes complete sense why BLACKPINK’s Lisa is earning the most per social media post. But that is not to say the Stranger Things cast is too far behind.

How much does the Stranger Things cast make off social media?

According to The Things, the Enola Holmes actress was considered the most influential out of the entire Stranger Things cast, which definitely gave her the Instagram boost to ensure that she was earning $174,058 per sponsored post. She is followed by the second fan favorite, Finn Wolfhard, who has 24.2 million followers and is paid $70,158, unlike his co-star.

In third place, there stands Noah Schnapp. Even though he has more followers than Finn Wolfhard with 26.1 million, he only gets paid $67,163 for each post that he shares on the social media app. With the second highest-engagement rate after Millie Bobby Brown, Sadie Sink comes in at $51,641 per sponsored post. She also had 26.4 million followers on the app.
