Jessie J reckons it’s “insane” that people take being ‘unfollowed’ so personally on Twitter.
Perhaps that’s why she’s unfollowed EVERYONE from her official social media page.
The star who has nearly seven million followers, deleted all of the accounts that she was following and it now reads “@JessieJ isn’t following anyone yet,” despite it reading ‘1’.
Former Voice judge Jessie warned that she would be going through round two once her thumbs recovered from the severe cull earlier this week that left so many of her fans or ‘Heartbeats’ outraged that she became a trending topic.
The Price Tag star launched into a now-deleted Twitter rant yesterday once her fans started to realise that they were no longer followed by their favourite star.
On Wednesday, the Bang Bang hitmaker is now following just over 400 accounts on her official Twitter page, which is half of the accounts she was following up until yesterday, and her fans that were ‘brushed off’ were left very upset.
One Jessie J fan account, with nearly 10,000 followers with the handle @jessieworldwide, was furious over the former Voice star’s actions.
“So much for fans. unfollowed all of your fans that helped u get u where u are.Yh u can 'change & grow' but not grow into an ***hole,” they wrote yesterday.
“I don't even want a follow back. I don't even wanna go to her concerts anymore,” they also added.
Jessie, who was accused of being “rude” and “ungrateful” because of her social media cull, tweeted today that she was “happy”.
After deleting her rant, she also tweeted: “Stop making me out to be something I’m not.”
Appearing to be dismissive of her fans’ outrage after being unfollowed by their favourite star, the 27-year-old claimed that she was baffled as to why anyone can take an unfollow personally.
“I find it insane that some people take being unfollowed like a personal attack,” she wrote in a deleted tweet.
“If I punched you in the face fair enough. But I didn’t... Meh.”
“Pick your battles in life. Being unfollowed by anyone is not a battle to fight. Or feel any way about. It’s Twitter," she added.
