Ins有史以来最受欢迎的照片……是一个鸡蛋？
要想在Ins上成为网红，照片得到最多的点赞，可不是一件容易的事。但真的不是件容易的事吗？其实你只要发一张鸡蛋的照片，就可以做到了！
之前，Ins上点赞最多的是凯莉-詹娜发布的一个帖子，有1810万个赞。
The post from February 2018 was the first photo of Jenner's newborn daughter, announcing the baby's name, Stormi Webster.
这个帖子发表于2018年2月，凯莉-詹娜在帖子中首次公布了刚出生女儿的照片，还宣布女儿名叫斯特米-韦伯斯特。

Now, as of Sunday afternoon Pacific Time, that record has been beaten. By a picture of an egg.
而在美国西部标准时间周日（1月13日）下午，这个纪录被一只鸡蛋的照片打破了。

博主还给这只鸡蛋起名叫“鸡蛋帮”（ Egg Gang）。
这张图片在网上疯传，还引来了一众效仿者。
有人上传生菜的照片，起名world_record_lettuce。
有人上传了一只母鸡的照片，叫world_record_chicken，并声称得到最多点赞的鸡蛋就是这只鸡下的……
一些网友还在微博上为增加点赞出谋划策，不过也有些网友认为这个纪录也许很容易能被打破。
Jenner's baby post parried away the efforts of Justin Bieber, whose engagement announcement to Hailey Baldwin received 13.3 million likes, and the late XXXTentacion, whose final post before his death also had the same number of likes.

现在，凯莉-詹娜发布的帖子已经被与鸡蛋有关的评论淹没 。
Jenner responded by posting a video of her cracking an egg on tarmac, which was recorded some time ago. "Take that little egg," she said.
