I believe there is a bug in the Follow.unicode method:
       return '%s' % self.target
should really be:
       return u'%s' % self.target

Otherwise you've got <Follow: [Bad Unicode data]> if a representation of target has non-ascii characters.

For instance in my project this even leads to a 500 page with exception thrown by the logger function,
the code is:
   label = unicode(instance)
Note, I tried str(...) and repr(...) with the same result (because Model.str still uses force_unicode)

When I applied the fix mentioned above, the error gone.
