Social media has really bridged the communication gap between fans and stars. But it also comes with a plethora of perils. General Hospital star Jon Lindstrom recently got a taste of one such setback on TikTok!
As it turns out, the phenomenal actor who plays Kevin Collins on GH has fallen prey to multiple cases of impersonation. As a result – he has been kicked out of the social media platform. Jon posted a video hilariously stating his tale on X.
“I’ve Been Kicked Off TikTok!” General Hospital Star Jon Lindstrom Announces
The GH star started his video by cheekily informing his fans that, “If you’re following me on TikTok, you are NOT following me on TikTok.” He explained that less than a month after he started posting on the platform, he got kicked off.
The reason is that he has violated their authenticity and integrity guidelines. “Which means I’m not me,” The General Hospital star laughed at the absurdity of it all. Furthermore, he added that he is guessing that there are already other people there by his name, impersonating him.
Thus, somehow, TikTok assumed that he was the imposter, impersonating himself! Yup, go figure! He then pointed towards some other accounts by his name and gave his fans a heads up that those people are not him!
Jon also added that he knows he is supposed to make an appeal through his app. But he can’t since they deleted his profile. Well, it seems it’s true when they say that reality is often stranger than fiction!
We hope our General Hospital fav manages to sort this out soon enough. Until then, beware everyone. Be a little cautious about who you follow and interact with on social media. Too many serious and concerning incidents have been happening. Stay tuned to Soap Opera Daily for more General Hospital spoilers and cast updates!
I don’t accept friend requests from people I don’t know and none of the actors on GH. People are posting their own content using GH actors name. This is all over Facebook.
There are SO many fake soap star profiles not only on x but fb, instagram, etc, I don’t know what the imposters get out of it but just really sad that so many people are falling for it.
