Jennifer Aniston Breaks Instagram World Record by Reaching 1 Million Followers in Just 5 Hours
Jennifer Aniston made history when she joined Instagram on Tuesday.
The actress, 50, broke the Guinness World Records title for the fastest time to reach one million followers on Instagram in five hours and 16 minutes, PEOPLE confirms.
Not only did The Morning Show actress gain friends, she also dethroned one famous couple for the title: Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
The royal couple previously held the title when they launched their Instagram account in April and broke the title in five hours and 45 minutes.
Some of the previous title holders include K-Pop star Kang Daniel and Pope Francis.
