The authenticity of OJ Simpson without the tick
On the podcast, OJ Simpson displayed a healthy level of jest and truthfulness during the podcast. He spoke about a multitude of topics, including the Jenners, the truth behind the murder, and his relationship with Trump. He also called out Elon Musk and asked him a question regarding his blue tick on Twitter.
He spoke about getting the verified check and said, “I sent a message uh on Twitter to him that maybe I could finally Mr now that uh uh Mr Musk maybe I can finally get a check you know uh why they would never give me the check.” The discussion took a turn toward explaining the reason behind not getting the blue check.
Why no blue check for the Juice?
The duo spoke about the real reason OJ hasn’t gotten the verified symbol yet. The running back mentioned that the reason he probably hasn’t gotten his verified mark is due to the number of fake accounts. OJ mentioned that there were a number of fake accounts that were probably being kept alive by Twitter and therefore the ex-football player has not been verified yet.

While OJ does not have a verified account yet, the running back’s existing Twitter is entertaining enough. The question is how much longer will it be before there is a blue check next to the name OJ Simpson?
