T-Pain Has Great Day Where He Discovers How Popular He Is On Instagram And Owns Some Racists

Celebrities: they're just like us.

You may or may not be aware of the Instagram DM feature where you aren't notified if someone you aren't following messages you on the platform. These messages are placed in a "request" folder, which, if you aren't looking for it, is fairly easy to miss. In the layman's case, this folder is usually filled with spambots. For singer T-pain, this folder was filled with dozens of celebrities reaching out to him.

In a humorous and wholesome TikTok video, T-pain scrolls through his Instagram requests folder, discovering an embarrassingly long list of celebrities he's inadvertently ignored for 2 years. The look on his face as he realizes he's missed DMs from Fergie, Viola Davis, Keri Hilson, Nate Robinson and many others is simultaneously hilarious and heartbreaking.

However, the same day T-pain posted the TikTok chronicling his L, he also posted a video of an epic W. While playing Call of Duty, T-Pain encounters an opposing team dropping N-words in a hugely embarrassing gaming moment, and T-pain mows them down one by one. "I want them all!" he cheers while cruising to victory.

T-pain's wild day made him a hero of social media on Thursday, as people were reminded of how great the singer is after being a punching bag in the early days of auto-tune.
