Greta Thunberg plays a sport, changes Twitter name to 'Sharon' after British star fails to identify her in quiz show

NEW DELHI: This one is new.

Recently, 'Casualty' actress Amanda Henderson, who was at the BBC quiz show Celebrity Mastermind as a contestant, was asked: "The 2019 book entitled 'No One is Too Small To Make A Difference' is a collection of speeches made by a Swedish climate change activist. What’s her name?". To which the actress replied, 'Sharon'. She was corrected immediately with the correct answer - Greta Thumberg.



Thunberg, who turned 17 on Friday, wasn't disappointed by Henderson's reply. Instead, the sport that she is, she promptly changed her name to Sharon on Twitter. She also changed her bio by updating her age.

This is not the first time the climate change activist has been in news for changing her Twitter name or bio. After Thunberg was named the TIME magazine's Person Of The Year, US President Donald Trump tweeted that she had 'anger management problems' and needed to 'chill'.


To which the 17-year-old environmentalist had an epic response, yet again. She changed her Twitter bio to "A teenager working on her anger management problem. Currently chilling and watching a good old fashioned movie with a friend."
