Elon Musk became the new boss of Twitter and opened a new page both in his own life and on Twitter. Musk made it clear how he would make a change on Twitter, where he fired senior executives and entered the center with the sink. While some argue that Elon Musk and Twitter will make it a completely different place, others do not show much love to Musk. That’s why they’re worried about the future of Twitter. A shock came to Musk from famous names.
Celebrities LEFT MUSK’S TWITTER
According to the news of Business Insider, celebrities started to leave Twitter after Elon Musk took over the management of Twitter. One of these celebrities was Shonda Rhimes, the screenwriter and producer known for Grey’s Anatomy. Shonda Rhimes posted her last tweet on October 29 from her own Twitter account. Rhimes never tweeted over this tweet, which was considered a clear indication that he was saying goodbye to Twitter.
Rhimes was just one of the few who had turned their backs on the platform in the past few days.
