Oh snap! Who knew that Michael B. Jordan had such a profound impact on the big screen?
When 18-year-old Sophia Robb recently watched Marvel’s blockbuster “Black Panther”, the movie proved too intense for her when villainous Killmonger, aka Michael B. Jordan, took off his shirt to reveal his super buff body.
The San Francisco teenager could do nothing but clench her teeth in awe. Unfortunately, she clenched it too hard and too tight that her retainer accidentally broke right there while she was seated in the theatres. Like all great internet stories, this insane encounter started as a post on Tumblr.
Guess what?
It was written by none other than Robb’s very own orthodontist (without her knowledge at first, might we add). The blog post soon became viral online and the world took notice. And so did Robb herself. That’s not even the best part because Jordan himself responded to Robb personally.
“One of my patients came in for an emergency visit, because she snapped the wire on her retainer watching the movie, when MBJ took his shirt off she clenched her teeth so f**king hard she snapped it. That is the f**king funniest shit ever to me. This tiny 17-year-old thirsting so goddamn hard she busted steel,” the orthodontist wrote.
Robb was shocked when she saw the screenshot of the post on Twitter. “Wait. That girl is me. That is my orthodontist’s tumblr. This is a post about me? I’m going to kill myself.” she tweeted. The young movie goer also clarified that she in fact 18 years old.
The 31-year-old Hollywood actor not only followed Robb on social media but responded publicly, saying, “@pixyrue since I feel partly responsible for breaking your retainers ??♂️ let me know if I can replace them.”
Wait. That girl is me. That is my orthodontist’s tumblr. This is a post about me? I’m going to kill myself https://t.co/ErDqESPrWj
