Cristiano Ronaldo overtakes Taylor Swift by reaching 60MILLION YouTube subscribers just 23 days after launching channel
CRISTIANO RONALDO might have some BAD BLOOD with Taylor Swift after he surpassed her YouTube subscriber count just 23 days after launching his channel.
The football superstar has now amassed a whopping 60.3 MILLION subscribers, smashing multiple records in the process of achieving the dizzying numbers.
Ronaldo unveiled his YouTube channel last month and has already made the list of the top 100 most subscribed to channels on the platform.
In fact, after surpassing pop queen Taylor Swift‘s 59.8m subscribers, he now has the 43rd biggest YouTube channel around.
And there’s no doubt he will continue to rise the ranks with his channel growing at an exponential rate.
Ronaldo, who netted his 900th career goal last week, knows all too well what it means to be breaking records on the pitch and is now doing the same thing off it.
His account became the fastest channel to ever reach one million subscribers, doing so in just 90 MINUTES!
While he also smashed the record for hitting the 10million subscriber mark, achieving the feat in less than 24 hours.
The previous record for hitting the 10million mark had been set in seven days, meaning Ronaldo’s effort blows it out of the water.
The Portuguese powerhouse’s viewing figures have been on another stratosphere too.

Across his 37 uploads since the channel’s creation, Ronaldo has already amassed over 443 MILLION views – averaging 11.7m views per video.
Ronaldo has always had a huge presence on social media and is already the most followed person on Instagram with 638 MILLION followers keeping a keen eye on his snaps.
He beats out the likes of Selena Gomez, Justin Bieber and footballing rival Lionel Messi to be Instagram’s most followed star.
Messi sits second in the list, but still lags some 134million followers behind his footballing counterpart.
On the pitch Ronaldo continues to break records despite hurtling towards the age of 40.
The five-time Ballon d’Or winner hasn’t showed any signs of slowing down either, netting 62 goals and registering 17 assists in his 68 appearances for Al Nassr since he made the Saudi switch.
