We were waiting for you!!!” The actress then translated the message for all her Spanish fans. “Bienvenida a la fiesta de Instagram Jennifer! Ya te estábamos esperando!!!”
This week, Jennifer joined social media and her first post featured a selfie with her Friends co-stars. Naturally, the world went crazy for the content. The Morning Show star also revealed she had some practice before officially joining the social media world. During her appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, she shared that she had a fake account before making her own profile. A Finsta, if you will. "Well, it was a stalker account, yes," she told Jimmy Kimmel. "When I was thinking about doing this, I sort of figured it was time to kind of understand the world and dip my toe into the sort of social media pool.”

The previous holders of the record—Prince Harry and Meghan Markle—reached one million followers in about five hours and 45 minutes.
You go, Jen!
