    This isn’t even a controversial opinion: celebrities shouldn’t endorse things that they know nothing about, especially things as dumb and scammy as NFTs and crypto.

      That is the celebrity business model: Get paid to be the pretty face of shit you know nothing about.

        Nah. You are putting your face and reputation on the line every time you endorse something on any media, it’s certainly NOT free money just for posting some tweets.

        So, don’t sell people’s trust in you for money, it’s not worth it, otherwise, there always a chance that this happens and you face consequences for your carelessness.

      Yeah, the creators of exploding kittens bought into NFC’s and tried to sell them to people. Now, I refuse to buy any of their products. Great job, guys.
