If you visited Solange’s Instagram page today, you would be greeted by an error message: “Page not found”.

Despite posting photographic glimpses into her life on a fairly regular basis for her fans to like and comment in large numbers, Beyonce’s little sister decided to delete her profile.

She didn’t give a reason for shutting down her Instagram account but she did direct fans to her website:

The site looks at though it’s hosted by Tumblr. It has many of the same pictures she posted on Instagram — without the captions, likes and comments.

Solange’s reasons for abandoning Instagram aren’t clear but many celebrities quit social media sites (especially Twitter!) for one reason or another. Charlie Sheen, Alec Baldwin, Nicki Minaj, Chris Brown, dream hampton, John Mayer, Miley Cyrus and others have all quit Twitter at one time. Some have found reason to return, while others are still not on the site. Then there are the celebrities who we only wish would quit Twitter or other social media sites, but we won’t name names!

For those of you looking for other celebs to follow on Instagram in the wake of Solange’s departure, Alicia Keys, Drake, President Obama, Christina Milian, Mary J, Brandy, Rihanna, Fantasia, Oprah, Ciara, John Legend, Nicki Minaj and tons of other celebs are still Instagramming away.

As for Solange, if you still want to catch pictures of her — or are hoping to catch the rare personal picture of Beyonce via Solange — bookmark her website cause she’s not “grammin” anymore.

Did you follow Solange on Instagram? Do you follow other celebrities on the photo sharing website?

    Maybe she quit because they were making fun of her crossed eyes in that pic.

    Dang janedoe lol…that was kinda harsh. I hope your wrong about that.

  • Hello_Kitty81

    Never knew she was on Instagram and never cared! Why is this news?

    • missydsunflower

      Because Bey was in one of the pics so that put her nobody self on the radar again.

  • TRUTH IS

    This should be filed under “Why is this news?!?”

  • nia

    Maybe she just didn’t want anyone in her business like that. Everyone is always critiquing something. It’s like she can do no good or no bad without someone having something to say. I don’t blame her.

    • Itiswhatitis

      Right! Some people look into it more than what it is. . .

  • JaneDoe

    She quit because she is a narcisit and narcisit love attn. They get bored easily and move on to the next… This is why I don’t pay celebs and most ppl any mind anymore because they are self centered and full of crap…

    • Smacks_hoes

      I agree… I deleted my twitter and Facebook a few months ago because people would bug the crap out of my especially on twitter. Girls are so thirsty for attention (guys to)… When people started doing the whole thong Thursday’s I just couldn’t.

        or T**** Tuesdays! bleghhh!!!

    • Itiswhatitis

      But it obvioulsy bothered you enough to comment on something that no one except the person who made the decision to delete there Instagram would know. . .It is what it is. .
