April 1 is rolling out with some Twitter changes that will supposedly leave many verified users without a blue check mark.
The social media platform, know owned by Elon Musk, revealed that at the top of the new month, the site will be removing "legacy verified checkmarks."
"To keep your blue checkmark on Twitter, individuals can sign up for Twitter Blue," the alert read.
However, Twitter Blue comes at a cost -- $8/ month or $84/ year -- to be exact.
Among those not buying into the new system is LeBron James.
