Legacy verified Twitter users began losing their blue check marks Thursday, as the social-media platform moved to end its previous system for authenticating users in favor of paid subscriptions.
Celebrities who suggested they wouldn’t subscribe when legacy verification went away include Chrissy Teigen, Mark Hamill, Dionne Warwick and “Seinfeld” actor Jason Alexander. All four appeared to have lost their blue checks as of Thursday.
