Elizabeth Olsen Joined Instagram for the Financial Opportunities

Elizabeth Olsen started a public Instagram account earlier this year and she’s not afraid to admit that she did it for the financial gain.

Many celebrities put up sponsored posts on social media, where a brand will pay them to endorse its product.

“I decided to join because I realized I was only taking something away from myself,” Elizabeth told the Los Angeles Times. “It’s so funny that people like to pretend that they’re maybe or maybe not getting paid to post something. Financially, it’s a brilliant opportunity. Like, I’d really love to be a brand ambassador. I’d love to do a campaign. I think sometimes working with brands or different cosmetic companies — that can help people recognize your face and then they go see your movies. I was only hurting my opportunities by not participating.”

Lizzie says that her older sisters, Mary-Kate and Ashley, both supported her launching an Instagram account!
