Los Angeles: Actor Jack Black had his say on Elon Musk\u2019s new Twitter policies, with a provisional position on whether he\u2019ll pay to keep his verified status. \u201cI don\u2019t know if I\u2019m going to pay for it,\u201d Black told Variety at the Los Angeles premiere of The Super Mario Bros. Movie on Saturday. \u201cI\u2019m a little embarrassed by the blue check to be honest with you. Maybe it\u2019s cooler not to have checks. It\u2019s definitely not cool to pay for it. I\u2019m gonna see what happens if I don\u2019t pay for it. I\u2019m gonna call his bluff, see if he really takes my check away.\u201d He added with a laugh, \u201cThen I\u2019m going to hold a big press conference to bring attention to this weird injustice.\u201d According to Twitter\u2019s new plan, users will have to pay $8 monthly to obtain a blue tick via subscription to Twitter Blue. \u201cMario Bros.\u201d star Chris Pratt also threw his weight behind his co-star. \u201cI don\u2019t know,\u201d Pratt answered when asked if he\u2019ll pay to keep his checkmark on Twitter.

\n\u201cI care deeply about all of [my followers]. I\u2019ll do whatever I have to do to stay a part of their lives because I respect their attention and I love to use it as an opportunity to talk to them when I\u2019m doing movies and stuff.\u201d
\nPratt said he wasn\u2019t concerned about potential imposters: \u201cGood luck,\u201d he said ironically to would-be frauds.
\nThe third Super Mario Bros.\u2019 co-star, Seth Rogen, who has 9.3 million followers also added that he won\u2019t subscribe to Twitter Blue: \u201cI almost never use it.\u201d In the last four months, Rogen tweeted only four times with posts dedicated to promoting his latest movies and a collaboration with Airbnb.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
