Jack and Jack fans were fuming on Twitter when Jack Gilinsky innocently thanked his girlfriend Madison Beer on Thanksgiving. Yes, that’s all. Was this an overreaction?
Why was this so contentious? Fans were apparently very bothered that Gilinsky did not publicly mention his childhood friend Jack Johnson even once.
For some reason, public Twitter shoutouts appear to be very serious business. Taylor Caniff previously criticized Nash Grier for not giving him a Twitter shoutout.
