Right before President Joe Biden was inaugurated — like, the morning of — Teigen had one humble request for the incoming POTUS: Can I get a follow on Twitter?

hello @joebiden I have been blocked by the president for four years can I get a follow plz

Lo and behold, she secured the follow — but recently, Teigen admitted that something about having the most powerful political figure in the United States following you on Twitter can be, well, a little limiting.

This morning, Teigen extended a public plea to the @POTUS account to be unfollowed “In order for me to flourish as me”: “I love you!!! It’s not you it’s me!!!!”

I have tweeted a handful of times since my treasured @POTUS following. In order for me to flourish as me, I must ask you to please lord unfollow me. I love you!!! It’s not you it’s me!!!!

Yet again, the President — or, more accurately, whoever’s running his Twitter account — acquiesced. And Teigen immediately unleashed a profanity-laden cry of joy.

Of course, Teigen — one of Twitter’s true celebrity sages — knew this day would come eventually. (She probably didn’t anticipate being the one who would request the unfollow, though.)

Anyway: congratulations, Chrissy. Feel free to Tweet like there’s only [checks follower count] 13.7 million people — who aren’t @POTUS — watching.
