LOS ANGELES : Actor Jack Black has weighed in on Twitter’s new policies, with a tentative stance on whether he’ll shell out a monthly fee to keep his verification status.
“I don’t know if I’m going to pay for it,” Black told Variety at the Los Angeles premiere of ‘The Super Mario Bros. Movie’. “I’m a little embarrassed by the blue check to be honest with you. Maybe it’s cooler not to have checks. It’s definitely not cool to pay for it. I’m gonna see what happens if I don’t pay for it. I’m gonna call his bluff, see if he really takes my check away.”
He added with a laugh: “Then I’m going to hold a big press conference to bring attention to this weird injustice.”
According to Twitter’s plan, users will have to pay $8 each month to obtain a blue checkmark through a subscription to Twitter Blue. ‘Mario Bros.’ star Chris Pratt also weighed in on the controversial new policies. The actor has 8.6 million followers on Twitter. (IANS)
