15 Famous People You Need On Snapchat RN (Not Including The Kardashians)
Like the past few years, 2017 is still all about Snapchat. What started as a way for us to send annoying but delicious-looking photos of our food to our friends has now turned into yet another platform from which our favorite celebrities can show us the ins and outs of their lives, and we're loving it! Some celebs edit their snaps more than others, but generally speaking, snapchat is a way for us to see what really goes on behind the scenes. The following 15 celebrity Snapchats are some of the best. They feature the insides of unbelievable celebrity houses, the sets of movies being filmed and productions being rehearsed, and the backstage of some of the hottest concerts on the globe. And of course, the huge amount of appearances by dogs and yummy food show us that celebrities are people too! Here are 15 famous Snapchat accounts to check out right now!
15 Selena Gomez
Selena Gomez is the most followed person on Instagram, so we added her on Snapchat to see what makes this pop star so much more exciting than the rest! She isn't a serial Snapper by any means, so she won't bombard you with footage, but she does every so often post videos that provide the ultimate celebrity point of view. On Selena's story you'll get to see the penthouses of the best hotels in Paris and the view from behind the tinted window of a car as hordes of fans approach. That is exciting! The other cool thing about Selena's Snapchat is that she is a fan of simply talking to the camera about her feelings, and we get very honest vibes from her. So if you want to know what's on her mind at 3:00AM, you got it! She also likes the yellow flower filter. You can catch her at @selenagomez.
14 Hilary Duff
Hilary Duff's Snapchat is the perfect reminder that behind the expansive, shiny careers, and huge houses, celebrities are really just people. Hilary's videos are pretty much a documentation of her adventures as a mom to adorable little Luca, so get ready to ogle at the cuteness! She snaps things like children's birthday parties and family trips to the beach. She recently even had her son explain to the camera why he didn't want to eat his breakfast while she did the typical mom sigh. Bless! The best part of all this is that we secretly still think of Hilary as Lizzie McGuire, so watching her take on the role of busy mom is like watching one of your beloved friends grow up. Her French Bulldog Peaches also steals the show away from Luca upon occasion, so get ready for some serious pet envy! You can catch Hilary, Luca, and Peaches at @ohheyhilary.
13 Ariana Grande
If you like dogs, you need to add Ariana Grande on Snapchat. She really likes them too, and rarely does a day go by without her snapping her huge furry family at all. Any preconceptions of Ariana being a diva are totally cleared up through her Snapchat, which shows her millions of dogs climbing all over her white bed sheets. She seems to be a fan of animals in general, so you might get the chance to see the odd goat here and there too! Ariana also likes a good old filter, and does a lot of speaking to the camera in hilarious voices. She snaps herself doing regular things like having Harry Potter marathons, and not-so-regular things like rehearsing for Hairspray with her celebrity pals! The main message we picked up from adding Ariana is that she's 0% arrogant and 100% hilarious. For some serious laughs, add her at @moonlightbae.
12 Eva Longoria
If you're a Desperate Housewives fan, you have to add Eva Longoria just because you miss seeing her on TV. But even if you're not, Eva's Snapchat is still worth adding! Firstly, the woman is always smiling, cheerful, and cracking jokes, so her story can cheer you up even on the glummest of days. Secondly, her life is amazing, and watching her snaps will give you wanderlust without having to leave your bed. Eva travels all the time, so be prepared to be taken to villas in Tuscany, beaches in Mexico, and galas in London. She also snaps her food a lot, which always looks divine. Adding her is a great way to improve your Spanish, since every so often she can be heard uttering Spanish words from her makeup chair. Basically, Eva's Snapchat will inspire you to work hard so you too can one day live in luxury. Add @realevalongoria now!
11 Ed Sheeran
Okay, so Ed Sheeran doesn't snap often, and truth be told, he hasn't snapped for a while. In his defense, he did just release one of the most amazing albums ever, and it's pretty well-known that he took some time off social media to live his life, so we're not writing off his Snapchat just yet! With Ed getting back into it, we're pretty sure that his Snapchat is about to become more active than ever, so now's the time to add him. He often snaps footage of his travels, photos of his food and hilariously captioned selfies. He's about to embark on a tour of North America, so we know that some super-exciting snaps will be coming our way soon, and we can't wait! Plus, if there's any chance of Ed snapping any more songs he secretly has in the works, we want to know about it! Find him at @teddysdaytoday.
10 Little Mix
Get ready for a whole bunch of cuteness! The official Snapchat of the ladies of Little Mix features plenty of band bonding moments from the dressing room, the studio and the hotel. The girls love doing impressions with voice-changing filters, and even get their dancers involved! Adding this Snapchat account will essentially make you wish you were in a girl group. The snaps come from the girls' individual accounts, which they all have except Jesy, so you will also get to see what the girls get up to when they're not being pop stars! Over the holidays we got to see videos of Perrie in Lapland, and Jade and Leigh-Anne opening presents with their families by the fire. The girls also don't mind documenting their adventures out on the town, which also results in some entertaining footage, to say the least! Add @littlemix_offic to see traditional British food and what goes down on tour.
9 Gigi Hadid
She's the most talked about model in the world right now, so you know that Gigi Hadid's Snapchat account is going to be packed with action! Adding her might give you some major envy, but that's okay. You won't be able to look away! Gigi snaps footage from her many photoshoots and fashion shows around the world, and if you're interested in keeping up with the it-girls of Hollywood, this is the way to go about it. Her snaps regularly feature guest appearances from the likes of Kendall Jenner and her sister Bella Hadid, as well as her boyfriend Zayn Malik, who isn't much of a Snapper himself! You'll get a peek into some of the private moments between one of the world's most famous couples, and you'll also get to see Gigi without photo shopping and Victoria's Secret makeup artists. Spoiler: she's still beautiful. Catch Gigi and her glam squad at @itsgigihadid.
8 Demi Lovato
If you want to witness both a celebrity's personal and professional life, look no further than the Snapchat of Demi Lovato. Demi will snap just as many selfies of her chilling in bed or with a face mask on as she will be preparing to attend the Grammys. Demi is another star who isn't scared to go makeup-free on social media, and her selfies help inspire girls to embrace their inner beauty and feel confident, which we love! Demi also posts amazing workout snaps, and we don't know about you, but seeing her smash it out in the gym gives us all the motivation we need to get up and break a sweat ourselves! She doesn't post as often as other Snappers, but Demi's account is basically the perfect one to follow if you're looking for some positive motivation. Add @theddlovato for snaps that are guaranteed to have you feeling good.
7 Chrissy Teigen
Chrissy Teigen's Instagram and Twitter accounts offer hilarious glimpses into her life, and her Snapchat is no different! We love any celebrity who isn't afraid to let the world know that their life isn't perfect, and Chrissy's all about exposing the less glamorous parts of hers. If you add Chrissy, you're going to hear all about the trials and tribulations of breastfeeding and see all the cuts and bruises that come with being a mom. She also loves to get busy in the kitchen, and you'll get to see her preparing some impressive dishes. Chrissy is a fan of face-swapping, particularly with her baby, and also loves chronicling her romantic moments with John that will make you swoon big time. This account is like a breath of fresh air, and will make you wish you had a friend like Chrissy! To make your life just that little bit brighter, add @chrissyteigen.
6 Rihanna
Anybody who's anybody has Rihanna on Snapchat! Here, you won't see many posts featuring cooking and French Bulldogs, but you will see what it's like to be one of the biggest pop stars on the planet. Get ready to go behind the scenes of cool events like the VMAs, and watch as Rihanna attends private album parties and appearances. The account is mainly managed by her friends, so rather than seeing all of this through the eyes of Rihanna, you'll get to see it as if you were one of her squad memebrs, which is pretty cool. You'll get a front-row view of her concerts, and know what it's like to walk beside her as she walks down the street ahead of mobbing fans and paps. Her cousin's toddler Majesty, who is almost too cute for words, also makes a few appearances! Catch Rihanna and her squad at @rihanna as they take over the world.
5 Niall Horan
With One Direction on a hiatus, fans should really be clinging to any interaction with the boys that they can get. If you're a Directioner, there's no way you can go without having Niall Horan on Snapchat! He posts cute selfies a lot, and also chronicles his long days in the studio or at golf. Yeah, get ready for a lot of golf. And a lot of photos of the inside of his house and his fridge. Even if you're not a Directioner, it's just so interesting to see what life is really like for somebody who was in one of the biggest bands in the world. Niall released his own single last year and is currently working on new music, so there should be some exciting snaps coming our way this year! Niall also snaps often so you'll generally always have something new to watch. Find him at @niallhoran.
4 Lady Gaga
Even if you don't consider yourself to be a Little Monster, you need to add Lady Gaga on Snapchat! We will always be fascinated by Gaga, simply because she's such an amazing artist, and the videos she posts tend to be pretty varied. You never know what you're going to get! In the past she's snapped videos from bed, from the makeup chair, and from her backstage quarters. She loves sending important messages to her fans, and the things she has to say are super sweet! She also posts exercise snaps and footage of herself doing everyday things, in addition to less regular things like casually performing at the Super Bowl. Given that she's about to go on a world tour, we have a feeling that her snaps are about to become even more interesting, and we're eager to see them! You can catch an authentic glimpse into the life of the world's most unique pop star by adding @ladygaga.
3 Ryan Seacrest
We think it's fair to assume that Ryan Seacrest was built for hosting. He just knows how to deal with a camera and a cyber audience, and knows how to make it entertaining. So of course, his Snapchat is going to be epic! We love hearing Ryan talk and essentially watching what we feel is our own private version of E! News, but the best thing about having Ryan on Snapchat is the celebrity connections that he has. A lot of Hollywood is catching on to the Snapchat trend, but there are a few stubborn stars who are yet to join or make their accounts public. Adding people like Ryan, who constantly document themselves talking to celebs, is the best hope you have at getting close to your favorite famous person who doesn't have Snapchat. It's worth a shot, anyway! For possible celebrity sightings and great banter, add @ryanseacrest.
2 Arnold Schwarzenegger
As millennials, nothing gives us joy like watching the older generation embrace today's technology. To put it simply, adding Arnold Schwarzenegger on Snapchat will give you some laughs. He totally knows how to use it better than most people who are fifty years younger, and he also includes some pretty cool and unique footage! In the past he's sent open snaps (kind of like open letters?) to famous pals like Sylvester Stallone, and he's also posted videos reciting the iconic lines from his famous movies. There's nothing like hearing “Hasta la vista, baby” when you need a good smile. If nothing else, add this guy for a serious dosage of nostalgia! Arnie is also a fan of a good selfie, and to be honest, he is able to rock them better than most people. In short, everybody's favorite action hero has still got it! You can catch Arnie and his antics at @arnoldschnitzel.
1 Ellen DeGeneres
If for some reason you're only going to add one celebrity on Snapchat, then do yourself a favor and make that person Ellen DeGeneres! She's arguably the funniest lady on television, and her social media is no different. Ellen often lends her account to her crew to document everything that goes into making a hit talk show, and they are a pretty hilarious bunch! Our favorite part of Ellen's Snapchat is undoubtedly the amount of celebrity guests who take the camera and share funny messages of their own. Ryan Seacrest is a good option if you're hoping to catch some of your favorite stars who don't have Snapchat, but Ellen DeGeneres is even better! Anybody who's a guest on her show is encouraged to take the spotlight and talk to the camera, so you never know who's going to pop up on her story. Follow @ellen for all the surprises you could want!
