Musk tried to trick people into believing that celebrities like @[email protected] and @[email protected] paid for Twitter Blue.

They did not and Musk got called out on it.

Musk has now copped to it and admitted he has paid for James, King and a handful of others to keep their blue checks

@juddlegum "Paid" for it. Okay. I mean, I guess technically it cost him a couple of billion each.
