Biden's new POTUS Twitter account only follows 12, and only one is a celebrity. Can you guess who?
As the Scripture says, ask and you shall receive. In the case of American model Chrissy Teigen, ask and you shall receive a "follow."
After being blocked by the @POTUS Twitter account in 2017, back when it was handled by previous president Donald Trump, off a tongue-in-cheek retort, Teigen shot off a plea for newly installed President Joe Biden to follow her back.
hello @joebiden I have been blocked by the president for four years can I get a follow plz

Teigen fired off the tweet while she was in Washington, DC with her husband John Legend, who performed during the TV special, and their children.
After Biden's @POTUS handle was set-up, it was only following 12 accounts (Biblical allusion?), and all of which were accounts linked to the White House except for the lone celebrity account, which is, you guessed it of course, Teigen's.
Teigen, of course, was over the moon after her request was heeded.

White House Directory of Digital Strategy Rob Flaherty also tweeted about the thing.

Over at Instagram, Teigen put a post that talked about her views on the Trump administration.
"History will not be kind to you, you absolute psychopath. But I never was anyhow," Teigen said.
