Celebrities React as They Are Re-Verified on Twitter, Seemingly Without Paying (Some are Thrilled, Others are Very Annoyed)

Elon Musk‘s latest apparent Twitter change has celebrities in their feelings.

Earlier this week, the new Twitter owner did away with legacy verification on the app, mandating that anyone who wanted to maintain the blue checkmark next to their name had to pay a monthly subscription.

Most celebrities opted out of that, losing the checkmark on Thursday (April 20). Others did pay up. Elon also hinted that he was paying for some stars to stay verified.

On Saturday (April 22), others started to regain their checks, seemingly without paying. Their reactions ran the gamut.

One was thrilled and thanked Elon, saying it was like Christmas and their birthday combined. Others wanted to make it very clear that they were not paying. Some even shared hacks on how to get rid of the checkmark. Another star even pointed out that it seemed particularly deceitful to imply that they were opting into the paid verification system.

Scroll through all the stars who reacted to the news that their Twitter accounts were seemingly re-verified again…
