Robert Smith interacted with fans on social media for the first time ever

[dsanchez]

Robert Smith just replied the below message on Twitter, marking his first interaction ever with a fan on any social media:

A BEAN A BEAN AND A HALF HALF A BEAN AND TWO BEANS... ? https://t.co/IqurUEmsx9

— ROBERT SMITH (@RobertSmith) October 25, 2022

another fan gave another answer to which Robert again replied!

HA!

The above came as surprise, as Robert Smith has bashed social media in the past, and Twitter in particular:

I've never read a single tweet, I refuse to go to Twitter, because I think its e anym ... madness! They tell me - how well can you communicate directly with fans. Yes, I do not want to! I do not want to talk to them every day! I do not want them to know what I ate for breakfast! If I like a musician, I want it to be mysterious, inaccessible, so that it takes you to some his own, separate world. But people think otherwise. I am clearly in the minority.

I just realized that last 5th November Robert Smith himself liked and RT a tweet from us. This made my day!



The RT was about a Robert Smith t-shirt designed by young people and adults with learning disabilities:

This is great! Link to buy the t-shirt here https://t.co/0npIjfqWiH cc @RobertSmith @thecure https://t.co/QzOTu6OZT4
