Michael B. Jordan Tweets at Retainer Girl

Michael B. Jordan's Hotness Caused a Girl to Break Her Retainer, So He Offered to Replace It

I'm going to go right ahead and assume you've seen Black Panther by now, and if so you'll know that there's one particularly memorable moment starring a shirtless Michael B. Jordan. The scene caused such thirst in one young fan that she clenched her teeth so hard she broke her retainer. The story first hit the internet when her orthodontist took to Tumblr to recount the tale.

"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 fucking hard she snapped it. that is the fucking funniest shit ever to me this tiny 17 year old girl thirsting so goddamn hard she busted steel."

Things started to get interesting when Sophia Robb, the girl in question, found the post and confessed it was her.

The story quickly went viral on Twitter, and luckily, Sophia took it all in her stride (she even changed her Twitter bio to read "I'm the girl who broke her retainer over Michael B Jordan in Black Panther"). Things really came to a head when the man himself was made aware of the tale. And, of course, Michael, who has a history of being awesome on Twitter, was the consummate gentleman, quickly replying to Sophia, offering to pay for her replacement retainer.

And it seems like he even slid into her DMs, too.

Obviously, those following the story on Twitter couldn't get enough of this result.

Even her dad got in on the act.

Sounds like between Michael and her dad, Sophia is sorted for retainers for life.
