Kim Kardashian is the most influential cast member of American Horror Story: Delicate

As we gear up for a new season of American Horror Story on FX, a new study has revealed that Kim Kardashian is the most influential cast member. And considering the reality TV empire that Kardashian is a part of, this absolutely makes sense.

While we are excited for a new season of AHS, the Delicate storyline is definitely one that has a bit confused. We totally get that it is a spider-themed season, but beyond that we have a lot of questions. And of course, that is exactly what Ryan Murphy and the series writers want. They want us asking questions and tuning in to get the answers.

However, beyond the storyline itself, the most exciting part about a new AHS season is the stars who bring the show to life. We love to see the veterans return for another creepy, spooky season of mystery and horror. And of course, we appreciate the addition of new actors and actresses who bring something fresh to the franchise.

For this season, the cast includes Kim Kardashian, Emma Roberts, Cara Delevingne, Matt Czuchry, Billie Lourd, Zachary Quinto, and Denis O’Hare, to name a few. And thanks to a new study from the casino comparison service, King Casino Bonus, we know that some members of the cast are more influential than others.

So how did the study determine that Kim Kardashian was the most influential cast member? According to the press email we received, “The Instagram following, engagement rate, and average likes of each cast member have been analyzed through an Instagram marketing calculator to reveal how much they could earn from a sponsored Instagram post.”

This makes sense because if you are a fan of Kardashian, then you already know that her Instagram is a part of her brand. So what did they reveal about Kim Kardashian’s social media influence?

"With a massive 364 million followers on Instagram and an average of 1.1 million likes per post, Kim can expect to make at least an estimated $772,333 per sponsored Instagram post, making her the biggest earner out of the American Horror Story cast. Over the past 30-day period, Kim has accumulated an additional 876,454 followers, so her earning potential is set to rise even further."

Of course, there are a number of other big names involved in this season, so how did they compare to Kardashian? Well it seems that “Cara Delevingne and Emma Roberts have the second and third-highest expected Instagram earnings, respectively.”

It’s actually not that surprising to see Delevingne and Roberts following Kardashian on the list. But in fourth place on the list we have, Odessa A’zion, who is said to have the most engagement on her social media posts out of the rest of the cast, even without the number of followers that some of her fellow cast mates boast. And we also have to note that some members of the cast are not on Instagram, including Matt Czurchy. So the influence is also related to actually being on social media to be an influencer.

Honestly, it is fascinating to see which cast members are the most influential on social media. And we are not that surprised by the fact that Kim Kardashian is the most influential member of the American Horror Story: Delicate cast.

Are you surprised by the findings of this study? Which member of the cast would you have expected to have more “influence?”
