Baller Alert Entertainment & Lifestyle
With 2019 well underway, it’s time to get motivated in every aspect of your life, including your social media timelines. Let’s cut out the negativity, and swipe past the silly memes and fill your pages with some of the most inspirational and motivational celebrities on the ‘gram.
@barackobama
Our #foreverpresident Barack Obama keeps us focused and hopeful despite the current political climate. His Instagram timeline is a cool collection of motivational and encouraging demonstrations of how he continues to cement his legacy as the most dynamic president of all time. He inspires his followers to get more deeply involved in changing the political landscape by using our voices and our votes to create the changes we want to see.
@michelleobama
As if being the flyest First Lady ever wasn’t inspirational enough, Mrs. Obama is a great example for women of color. In 2018, her biography “Becoming” was not only the fastest selling, but also had the longest run at #1 on Amazon’s bestseller list. Her Instagram feed is a testament to her spirit and determination to help others by the use of her platform.
@diddy
Sean “Diddy” Combs has always been an inspiration to aspiring moguls, since he bursted on to the scene in the early 90’s. Always ahead of the game in music, fashion and business and leading the pack with his incredible work ethic and hustler’s mentality, Diddy uses his Instagram feed to constantly motivate his followers to strive towards #blackexcellence

Rough, rugged and raw!! Sending you nothing but love and light on this beautiful Sunday!!!
@willsmith
NO ONE does Instagram better than Will Smith. The Movie star was a reluctant latecomer to the platform but once he joined he made it impossible not to be inspired by his sharing of positive motivational gems and advice. Will also takes his followers along on awesome thrill-seeking adventures that challenge us all to push past our fears and into the truest pursuit of happiness and live our best lives.
@jadapinkettsmith
Never to be outdone by her hubby, Jada Pinkett Smith brings a great light and positive energy to Instagram as well. She talks directly to her followers about lessons she’s learned that have helped her personal growth and brings us inside her #redtabletalks where she’s usually joined by her mom Adrienne and daughter Willow and featured guests to discuss topics that have long deserved attention from within our community.

Thank you @willowsmith and @adriennebanfieldnorris. Thanks @staymacro for this opportunity. Thank you @kibianderson. Thank you to my @redtabletalk family. Thank you Facebook. And … thank you to my grandmother Marion Banfield for helping to mold me into the woman I am today. I got a long way to go but your love never stops guiding me✨
@plies
Shawty, you can say what you want, but Plies always comes through with a word or two that will definitely keep you motivated. Whether he’s advising women how to stay sexy or how to avoid the negativity of ‘big mad’ haters. Plies is always dropping a gem or two.
@iamcardib
Ever since Belcalis exploded on Instagram a few years ago, she’s been motivating and inspiring every day “regular degular” people to be authentic and always speak their truth. Cardi keeps it real with her followers and has documented every monumental moment of her journey to success. While some celebrities might think of social media as an “Invasion Of Privacy” Cardi isn’t afraid to use her platform for brutal honesty, from her sex life to politics.
@souljaboy
SOULJABOY???! Yep! Souljaboy makes the list just for his antics these past few weeks alone. Souljaboy used the internet to create himself years ago, motivating many young, upcoming artists with what is now the standard for getting on in music today, but if that’s not enough, Souljaboy has inspired many, recently, by staying true to who he believes he is, despite the doubts of those around him. Speaking life into his projects and by literally manifesting the best comeback of the year right before our eyes! Soulja has dropped some serious gems on us that should inspire his followers to stay on their grind, and believe in themselves— oh yeah and to always have multiple businesses.
