@tpain I swear!! I’m just now seeing all these messages and mentions TODAY!!!! How do I super apologize? Press conference? Town hall meeting? I’m dumb🤦🏿‍♂️ ♬ Monkeys Spinning Monkeys - Kevin MacLeod Did you know that all your DMs on Instagram don't directly go to your inbox? Apparently, T-Pain did not. In a hilarious TikTok posted on Wednesday, the rapper documented his reaction to finding out that there is actually a separate request folder on Instagram for people he doesn't follow. While my personal request folder is filled with spam, being the big star that T-Pain is, his is actually filled with messages from celebrities including Fergie, Viola Davis, and Diplo. "I've been accidentally straight up ignoring all these people for like 2 years," he wrote in the video. "How do I super apologize? Press conference? Town hall meeting? I'm dumb," he continued in the caption. Honestly, my vote is for a town-hall meeting. That would be incredible. Watch his funny video above.
