Cape Town - Sigh, just another reason to love Michael B Jordan!
The hunky Black Panther star kindly offered to pay for a fan’s retainer after she broke it while watching the movie.
According to People, Sophia Robb clenched her teeth so hard during a scene in the blockbuster Marvel movie where Michael’s character Killmonger takes off his shirt, she broke the orthodontic device.
An emergency visit to her orthodontist’s office resulted in her doctor sharing the anecdote on Tumblr, which quickly went viral.
“Wait. That girl is me. That is my orthodontist’s tumblr. This post is about me? I’m going to kill myself,” Sophie tweeted when she saw it before quickly adding she was just joking.
Michael (31) then waded in offering to pay for the cost of the replacement.
“@pixyrue since I feel partly responsible for breaking your retainers, let me know if I can replace them,” he tweeted.
Needless to say Sophie, has become one very happy teenager since the headline-making incident.
