London, Europe Brief News – Several celebrities have left Twitter following Elon Musk’s takeover last month.
The world’s richest person has faced a torrent of criticism, and worse, since taking over the social media site.
Gigi Hadid is one of the latest stars to announce their exit, which she did via a brutal Instagram post on Friday.
In the message to her 76.2 million followers, the 27-year-old supermodel wrote: “For a long time, but especially with its new leadership it’s becoming more and more of a cesspool of hate & bigotry, and its [sic] not a place I want to be a part of.”
The Good Place actor has apparently made her mind up at last after quitting the platform back in April then re-joining, before leaving again last week.
Confirming her departure in a tweet, she wrote: “One good thing about Elon buying twitter is that I will *FINALLY* leave and stop being a complete menace to society on here. So it’s win win for you all really.”
The Grey’s Anatomy writer and producer didn’t need Twitter’s allotted 280 characters to get across what she wanted to say.
So did the Grammy award-winning singer Sara Bareilles.
The Billions co-creator declared his departure with: “Y’all’s, for real, come find me over on instagram and the tok. Gonna really try to take a breather from here for a minute or a month come deal close time.”
The screenwriter has now locked his Twitter account so only his approved followers have access to his tweets
The comic book artist, who is best known for his work on Marvel’s The Amazing Spider-Man, reportedly tweeted in April that “the day Elon Musk buys Twitter is the day I delete my account and leave Twitter.”
