People Before Profit's Richard Boyd Barrett became one of just over 700 people followed by supermodel Bella Hadid yesterday.
What was the Dun Laoghaire TD thinking when he woke up this morning to a social media storm?
Did the tricks and traps of today's date, April 1st, cross his mind?
While these questions lie unanswered, we do know Hadid's following of RBB remains unrequited - hope she's ok.
The 25-year-old shared a post from the People Before Profit politician with her 50 million Instagram followers last night, with the hashtag #PEOPLEBEFOREPROFIT.
The post from earlier this year compared the Irish Government's spending of €88 million on the horse racing industry with the €30 million in funding for domestic violence refuges.
