Instagram is one of the most popular social media accounts for celebrities, and with good reason: they get to share an exclusive look into their world through impromptu pictures (or in some cases, highly staged Photoshop extravaganzas). With millions of people already connecting through Instagram and millions of accounts to sift through, it can be hard knowing which ones are worth following. Luckily, we're here to provide you with the best celebrity Instagram accounts of 2015 for your viewing enjoyment.

Norman Reedus


The Walking Dead
star has one of the most eclectic and eccentric Instagram accounts out there. From fantastic photo shoots to some of his favorite fan art to behind-the-scenes peeks at his work, it's plain to see that Reedus takes joy in sharing his weird, wacky world with the rest of us. As a lover of art and photography, Reedus brings a professional eye to many of his posts. Plus, like all devoted pet lovers, Reedus is a huge fan of sharing pictures of his adorable cat. Even zombie killers can have a soft side.

Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson


For a daily dose of good-natured motivation, inspiration, and humor (plus some serious workout mojo), the best Instagram out there is that of the Rock. He uses his social media account to share his workout details and inspiration with fans—not to mention some truly sweet and memorable encounters with the public. Not content to connect solely with visuals, the Rock tends to write lengthy captions for all his pictures. A particular favorite: the truly astounding amount of food he consumes on his "cheat days." Hey, even the Rock needs a break sometimes.

The hunky Thor actor lets his softer side out on his Instagram account, sharing sweet and silly photos of him and his family. Best of all is his online rivalry with younger brother Liam—their sibling hijinks alone are reason enough to follow both accounts.

Blake Lively

...that time I went girl on girl. #CouldveDoneWithALittleLessTongue A photo posted by Blake Lively (@blakelively) on Jun 30, 2015 at 8:09am PDT


The star of Gossip Girl loves Instagram, and with over 5 million followers it's safe to say the feeling is mutual. Lively loves to share behind the scenes pics of her various adventures and photoshoots; the blonde bombshell has a surprisingly silly side that shines through in these fun photos. Make sure to follow her husband Ryan Reynolds as well; his Instagram is delightfully wacky and surprisingly sweet. Ain't love grand?

Anna Kendrick

Few celebrities are as willing to make fun of themselves as Anna Kendrick—and that's just one of the reasons we love her. The actress and singer posts goofy, entertaining pictures alongside glamorous red carpet fare. This combination of sass and class perfectly sums up what makes Kendrick such a fun and compelling celebrity, both onscreen and online.

Taylor Swift

I didn't know 'kangaroo selfies' were a thing. But they are and this is one. A photo posted by Taylor Swift (@taylorswift) on Dec 5, 2015 at 9:14pm PST


This Instagram account has it all: funny selfies, amazing vacation photos, concert pics, sweet family photos, and cat videos. Like the best social media accounts, Swift's Instagram makes followers feel a personal connection with the singer by letting them see a very different side of her public persona. She may be an internationally acclaimed crooner and glamorous superstar, but at the end of the day she loves to curl up with her cat just like everyone else. Who can't relate to that?
