Tyra Banks

As much as people look up to celebrities for the lifestyles they live, the fancy cars they drive and all of their ups and downs shown publicly, at the end of the day they are still human. Tyra Banks uses her Twitter almost everyday. She tweets about breakfast, hair, upcoming events and this allows you to see the human Tyra Banks and not the very successful former supermodel/tv host/actress that we constantly see on television. Twitter allows her fans to see the real her, not the dolled up one we see dressed fancy around her fellow celebrities. This twitter allows her fans to see her in an aspect we've never seen in person and may never. This is Tyra in the morning making breakfast, this is Tyra talking about the things young girls dwell on and become stressed about such as hair weave, this is Tyra at night tired from a long day. Twitter allows Tyra to become more relatable to her fans of all ages. In some aspect of Tyra's tweets, they are real enough to the point the average young woman working everyday, cooking breakfast and trying to figure out what to do with her hair can read and enjoy. Recently she tweeted about buying a new coat and jokes about it being bright yellow and looking like big bird, not every celebrity makes fun of themself. I do it all the time so I'm impressed by that. Tyra Banks uses this to show everyone how real she is, down to earth and not this self absorbed person without a sense of humor. There isnt much promotion going on for herself, she rarely talks about the events she will be attending nor her upcoming plans. She mentions America's next top model occassionally but for the most part her twitter is about her personal life and the things she feels during the day. I love it and I love her!!!

JImmy Fallon

Jimmy Fallon uses his Twitter account primarily to promote his Late Show on NBC. He tweets nearly every day about what it coming up on that night’s show, linking his tweets to the twitter accounts of guests on the show. He also sometimes posts links to episodes or video clips from previous shows in his tweets.

In addition to using his Twitter to advance his NBC talk show, Fallon tweets about other shows he does. For instance, he was recently at Northeastern University to do a show, and tweeted about how much he loves Boston and how great the students and faculty at the school were.

Occasionally, Fallon tweets about other things, like seeing a 3D movie, but this is not as prevalent as tweets about shows. Fallon is very good about responding to tweets of other people he follows, however. He often comments about tweets of other Twitter members or responds to their tweets posting questions, comments or videos.Jimmy Fallon has 2,176,719 followers and follows 153 people.

Trey Songz

Editor's Note: I'm posting this on behalf of Saysha, who had some technical difficulties with her account and our blog!

I’m following Trey Songz on twitter and all he has been doing is touring the country. I think his tour ends November 21. He came to IUP on October 10 for our home coming concert and it was the greatest! A lot of people were upset because we were waiting for two hours before he showed up; people even left the concert. I didn’t. I’m a fan! Then people were tweeting him all upset about him not coming on time. It wasn’t his fault. The people who hosted the concert are to blame because his contract said he was scheduled to perform at 10P.M. He even tweeted to the “students of IUP” saying to please stop tweeting him ignorant messages because he isn’t the one to blame and for us to take it up with our school. Overall, the concert was good and he looked great.

Jay-Z Via Twitter

Hip-Hop World Icon, Jay-Z, utilizes his Twitter for marketing and advertising purposes. The posts are professionally written, I'm assuming not by Jay-Z himself. However, they are updates on his recent album, The Blueprint 3, with updates on his tour and his career. I have yet to see anything posted regarding his personal life, i.e. with Beyonce or any vacations or the like. His Twitter is professional well-kempt, and updated at least every few days as well as multiple posts in one day. Many of them have links to his album website or other media outlets to summarize updates in his career. It is safe to say that Jay-Z's Twitter is actually used to professional purposes, rather than an placeto send "shout outs" to others or as an "appropriate" outlet to quit his job.

Tyra is a human being....

When looking at Tyra Banks twitter page, you can see that she does normal eyeryday things just like the rest of us. She watches movies, makes breakfast and hangs out on the weekends. Her twitter makes her look down to earth and personable. She says what she loves and what she is doing and does not complain or try to make others look bad. This really is a plus for Trya being able to show her fans that she is just like them. Tyra seems like a sweetheart!

John Mayer

John Mayer uses his twitter account was not what I first expected. He does not talk about his career barely at all in his twitter account, but usually just posts quotes or thing he heard that day that were funny. He also used his twitter account to fight rumors. He titled it Rumor Check. It was over a rumor that he was at a gay bar and possibly kissed another man. He stated "yes, I went to gay bar in Palm Springs, yes. Had a blast. Danced my face off. Someone there planted a kiss on me? No."
John Mayer also uses his twitter account to clue in his fans to what he is doing with his career. He talks about his tour, and how he is going to be gone for two years. He also brings up something about Alicia Keys and how performing with her was very thrilling. His fans will like to see that John Mayer is praising other celebrities, and will get curious to what exactly he is doing with Alicia Keys... a collaboration maybe?

Hines Ward

I've been following Hines Ward's Twitter account: HWmvp86. His Twitter is actually combined with his Facebook page so his posts are longer than the character limit. You can click on a link at the end of each Tweet to view the full text. Ward Tweets rather often, sometimes once a day, sometimes many times a day.

Ward Tweets mostly about games and the causes he works for. His most recent series of Tweets documents the time he spent with Korean children that are part of his foundation. He always expresses a lot of gratitude for being able to help people in need. He also makes comments about being happy about the results of games, and congratulates his teammates on a job well done.

I think Hines Ward's Twitter account most certainly helps his career and his image. He comes across as a very humble and genuine person.

Rob Zombie

My celebrity twitter is Rob Zombie (a famous musician originally in the band White Zombie, who now has a spin off band named Rob Zombie; also a movie director/producer of hits such as "The Devils Rejects, "Halloween", etc.) Rob Zombie has currently been using his twitter to report on his recent tour in Asia. Each show that he has played already, he has given a shout out to them on his twitter and saying that he had an "awesome" or "kick ass" time. I thought the recognition of his fan base is a very noble act and greatly appreciated by his admirers. Within the past few days, he has posted messages about his upcoming release of the dvd "Halloween 2" which was in theaters this summer. He said that there is a new theatrical cut not seen in theaters which he considers to be "the real movie". All i can say i thank god because the original version sucked ass and was a major disappoint. When i first started following him in September, he kept tweeting about how some "asshole" created a fake twitter calling himself Sherri Moon Zombie, otherwise known as Rob Zombie's wife. This is when i believed that this Twitter was actually Rob Zombie himself because he was cussing out the imposter on Twitter. Get it!

Demi Moore

Demi Moore, an American actress, who has been in movies such as “A Few Good Men,” “Ghost,” “Indecent Proposal” and “St. Elmo’s Fire,” to name a few, uses her twitter in many different ways.
She uses her twitter to post what she is doing during the day, what her family is doing, how she is feeling and how her career is going. I also think she uses twitter to the fullest, because it is not uncommon to see her posting information about charity events and creating awareness about “bad” things that are happening in our country.
Demi seems to really enjoy using twitter, by posting multiple times a day. It seems that every time I log into twitter, I also see new tweets by Demi.

Gwen Stefani

My role model growing up was Gwen Stefani. In fact, she still is and I just went to see her in concert this summer for the No Doubt Reunion Tour 09! I have chosen to follow Gwen on Twitter for class but realize she must not do her own tweeting. For example, a lot of her "tweets" say Gwen says or Stefani: 'quote'. I am disappointed that she is not the one actually tweeting and it is probably a publicist. However, I still do enjoy hearing about her, even if it is from someone else close to her!

@petewentz

Pete Wentz twitters so much, that I had to remove him from my phone list updates. A lot of the things he twitters are just random thoughts going through his head at the time. And since he is the lyricist for Fall Out Boy, his tweets are often lyrical and personal. He tweets a lot about his friends, and his family and twitpics pictures of Bronx (his son) all the time.

@petewentz: waiting on a prescription of you.


For business related things, he (or a publisict) uses @FallOutBoy to tweet things for the band as a whole.

Pete kind of has the whole twitter-verse at his fingertips. His clothing line, Clandestine, also has a twitter, @ClandestineShop.

I love following Pete's twitters because it lets all his fans get a personal sneak-peak into his personal life. His twitter is much like my own, whatever pops into his head, he grabs his phone and types.

@petewentz: my wii fit trainer says i am a "yoga master". i am quite convinced a real life human yoga trainer would say the exact opposite. technology!

Taylor Swift + Twitter = Love.

The life and times of @taylorswift13.

Taylor Swift is one celebrity who really uses her twitter to update her fans on her personal life. Though she does discuss her career and the work she is doing, she also talks about having girls nights with Selena Gomez:

"Fancy dress/high heels night with @selenagomez!"

Or her travels:

"Hello, LA. Good to see you again."

Taylor Swift is someone who fans can already see themselves in. Girls all over the world listen to her songs and feel like Taylor has gone through some of the same situations as they have. I think Taylor is using twitter perfectly, representing herself in a way that is completely approachable to fans.

But she also knows how to promote her name using her twitter account:

"Woahhh.. The Fearless Platinum Edition is OUT OUT OUT right NOW NOW NOW."

I think that Taylor's twittering can only do good things for her career. So suck on that, Kanye.

Kourtney Kardashian

Kourtney Kardashian and her famous family have been all over newsstands recently, from her own baby news to younger sister Khloe's recent wedding the past few months have proven eventful for the Kardashian clan. Due in December Kourtney is preparing for the arrival of her baby boy and the upcoming launch of the new season of Keeping Up with the Kardashians. Kourtney's tweets seem to mainly consist of events from her day to day life but occasionally she will mention upcoming events she and her sisters are hosting such as their Halloween Costume Contest. In past tweets she has also reminded followers to tune into her summer series Kourtney and Khloe take Miami.

Hayley Williams of Paramore

Hayley Williams is the lead singer of pop-punk band, Paramore. At only 20 years old, Hayley and her band have had three hit records.
I follow Hayley on Twitter religiously. She uses her Twitter account in a personal way. She tweets to her friends, boyfriend and fellow bandmates. Some musicians do not run their own Twitter and have others do it for them, posting things such as upcoming concerts, events or contests. Paramore has their own seperate Twitter account that they use for those purposes.

I like how Hayley uses her Twitter. Although she only follows 122 people compared to the 372,918 that follow her, she still keeps her fans in mind as she tweets. She gives updates on what she is doing several times throughout the day and gives shoutouts to the cities they are playing in. She also uploads personal photos from her phone often.
Hayley keeps a personal blog on Paramore's official Web site and often when she updates it, she posts the link in a tweet. A few times, she has used Twitter (along with her blog) to address rumors that were being said about her or the band.

Twitter is a definite help to the entertainment industry. This is probably the closest we will get to our favorite celebrities. It's a great way for celebrities to connect with their fans.

Travis Clark of We The Kings

Travis Clark is the lead singer of a band known as We The Kings. They are a newer rock group that is gathering a large fan base. They just released their first self-titled album and are working on another one. Travis utilizes various social networking sites such as MySpace, Facebook and most importantly Twitter. I am following Travis on Twitter and he tweets on a regular basis. He posts pictures from the tour bus and concerts, always managing to keep fans informed and up-to-date.

Travis always updates Twitter, posting tweets such as:” I'm so sorry I couldn't stay outside and sign.. I promise I'll make it up to you :)”This shows that Travis is engaged and really cares about his fans. He also has set up a blog : www.whoistravisclark.com . In the blog, he updates on concerts, upcoming albums and other funny outtakes from the band.
I think that Travis does a very good job at updating his Twitter and keeping his fans as his number one priority. Twitter is a way to connect with celebrities and feel like they belong. In my opinion, Travis cares about his fans and constantly keeps them in the know about upcoming shows and concerts. Travis tells his fans that he appreciates them and is happy to be doing what he’s doing.

Katy Perry

Katy Perry has a very personal use of Twitter.com. Many times Katy posts three or four times a day and they are quite random. The way she posts contribute to the kind of artist she is, half the time you don’t know the complete meaning behind her post, but some people don’t know the complete meaning behind some of her songs. So Katy Perry’s twitter contributes to proving that she is a unique artist.
There are some times where she has a more serious post, there was one that was begging people to pray, because a friend of hers was in intensive care. Other than being completely random, Katy Perry sometimes does use her Twitter to say things she does daily. She was shooting a 3OH3! music video, and was talking about how she didn’t shave her legs.
Another interesting thing about the way Katy Perry “tweets” is that she does shorten all of her posts because she only has 140 characters of letters to work with. She also was quite distraught when Miley Cyrus deleted her twitter account, however; most of the twitter world was for some reason.
Most recently, Katy Perry posted three links to pictures from her birthday party. It was Willy Wonka themed, complete with Oompa Loompas and according to her twitter she also had her nails custom done to match Oompa Loompas.
Personally, I love Katy Perry and love the random posts she makes. She has some really crazy antics about her and I also enjoy knowing what she is doing daily. I don’t think that her use of Twitter helps or hinders her in the eyes of the media. Katy Perry has really not done much promoting of anything in particular, but she has said what awards shows/events she will be doing and when.

Adam_Schefter

Adam Schefter is NFL reporter that works for ESPN. He uses his Twitter account to tell his fans things that are going on around the NFL. He will tweet news before he reports to ESPN. He also will answer questions that fans have; I have sent him a question that he responded too on Twitter. He will tweet when he will be on television and where fans can find him. I think that he started a Twitter when he moved from the NFL Network to ESPN. ESPN was one of the first networks that jumped on the Twitter craze. All of the people that work for the company have an account. The shows that air also have their own Twitter pages.

I think the best part of following somebody on Twitter is the availability that they show to their fans. Most of the people that you see on their will take some time to answer questions either about what they do or about anything. Adam had some tweets about whey became a journalist and what you need to do when you inspire to be one. I decided to follow him because he is somebody doing something that I would like to do one day. He is more down to earth then other people that are out there.

I think he does his own tweets, people have said that he is always on his Blackberry either talking to people or tweeting. He has up 53,000 people that follow him, which is the most of anybody at ESPN.

Glenn Beck

Glenn Beck is a conservative radio/talk show host. He has a television show on Fox News and he also has a radio show that is very popular. He has been using his twitter account to post reminders about his show, events that are taking place, and his current frustrations with our government. His tweets are usually news related updates about what is going on with government issues and policies. He also tweets link to resources for current stories that he is covering on his shows.
When I first started following him I thought for sure that he is doing all of his own tweeting, because most tweets have a sarcastic element to them, especially the ones about President Obama. His tweets contain a lot of internet jargon and shortcuts like “LOL” and “R” instead of are, which makes me think that maybe it is someone of a younger generation doing his tweeting. Most people his age are not using terms like “LOL”, “BRB” or “JK”.
Glenn Beck also uses his tweeting as a way to promote his books, such as the Christmas Sweater.

Allen Iverson

Iverson has been using his blog primarily to promote his new team, the Memphis Grizzlies. He even announced that he was going to sign with the Grizzlies before the team even made the announcement. This usually doesn’t happen, and I don’t think it’s a good idea because a lot of deals fall through during the contract talks. He’s been promoting the Grizzlies by ticket giveaways to the team’s home games. This seems like a good idea, because he’s promoting himself through the team. He’s also opened new stores and signed shoe deals, so he’s been using Twitter to promote these as well.
He talks a lot about charity work that he does. I understand that he’s trying to change an image of himself, because he hasn’t been seen in the best of light through his career. However, after awhile it almost comes off as a pat on the back. He doesn’t really tell much about his day-to-day activities, leaning more toward stories. Another smart thing he does is post links to websites where you can see, and buy his new products. It seems like he's walking a fine line with the blog coming off as priomotional, but he's trying to make it sound personal.

The Real House Wife of Atlanta: Nene Leakes

Nene Leakes – Heats up the second season of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta”. She is the real one, the “tell it how it is type of gal”. So much drama goes on, on the “Real Housewives” and Nene always finds herself into it with one of the cast mates on the show. Nene actually uses Twitter to promote the show. She also talks about her view points on the show. Nene also has a Memoir in stores now. In this memoir, she talks about her life, her ups and downs, experience with domestic violence, and growing up not knowing her biological father. Nene was raised by her Aunt and that’s who she considers her real mother. She gives all credit to her Aunt, that’s responsible for raising the diva of “The Real House Wives of Atlanta.” Nene has promoted her book for numerous months now on Twitter encouraging everyone to go out and support her book. Nene brings life to the show and to me if there was no Nene, there would be no “Real House Wives of Atlanta!”

Shaq

I am covering NBA player Shaq on twitter. He uses his twitter account to promote his show “Shaq VS”. His “tweets” are very short and straight to the point. He likes to comment on different things that are going on around the world. He recently commented on Mike Tyson being on Oprah the other day, “Great show today on oprah, mike and evander meet for the first time since the ear biting incident, man oprah is my idol, touching show”. He likes to tell jokes on twitter as well. He said, “Yo momma so dumb that she went to an L.A. Clippers game to get a hair cut”.
Shaq says whatever is on his mind. He will say random tweets about anything. He tells his followers what he is doing that day and what he has already done. A big part of his twitter is commenting on wins and losses after a basketball game. He also recently went to a Jay-Z concert, Shaq said, “I'm at a jz concert, what recession, its 50 thousand people here, jigga killn it, jz the g.o.a.t. Dam put your diamonds up its the roc”. Shaq’s tweets are never to be taken very serious. He spells as if he was in second grade. He is good at staying close with his fans. He does not hold back on how he really feels about a situation. This is why he is so popular. He stays down to earth and he lets his fans understand what he does in a normal day.

Holly Madison

The person I’m flowing is Holly Madison, one of Hugh Heffner’s ex-girlfriends. After leaving the show “The Girls Next Door” Holly moved to Las Vegas and is performing in the “Peepshow”. Most of what Holly talks about is her everyday life. A popular subject that she always talks is her dogs. In her recent posts she has been talking about the upcoming Halloween holiday. She seems to do a lot of photo shoots and she still talks to her close friend Bridget Marquardt, another one of the ex- girlfriends.
By talking about her everyday life, I think that all of her followers who want to meet her or see her perform in her show can. She also talks about all her promotions that she’s doing. She does talk about other celebrities and I find her comments very entertaining. She also seems to respond to her fans by answering questions that they have asked her. I would highly recommend following Holly, she’s a fun, upbeat and entertaining person!

Ellen Degeneres

I have been following Ellen DeGeneres on Twitter since the beginning of class. I think that Ellen uses Twitter for its full potential rather than brushing it off as a useless tool. What I really like about Ellen’s use of Twitter is that she keeps it all business - she never mentions her personal information in regards to her daily life but she always talks about her show. Whenever a celebrity is on her show and doing something for charity she is always sure to mention it – sometimes she even includes a link to a video of what she is talking about. The best thing that Ellen does on Twitter is the contests she has to promote local areas. For example, when the Real House Wives of Atlanta were going to be on the show, Ellen would Tweet hints that a contest was coming up. Every few minutes or so she would Tweet another message giving another clue as to what the contest is about. More recently, she had a contest held in Dallas. She began the day before the contest tweeting to people in Dallas to stay tuned to her Twitter. The next morning she gave a few hints about where the contest was going to be held. In order to participate, Ellen instructed fans to go to Sewell GMC in Dallas and give Jennie a dollar with Ellen’s name on it and that entered you in for the drawing of some fabulous prizes. Ellen is helping to promote local businesses in different areas by bringing a crowd to those locations with her contests and prize giveaways.

Pink

Pink tweets many times throughout each day. I enjoy reading about what she is doing. She tells what she is thinking, feeling, doing, where she is going, and where she has been. She was just in Manchester and she had many things to say each day. I like reading about the little things that Pink is doing like yoga, where she is going to dinner, or that she just spilled an entire bowl of piping hot tomato soup all over her(atleast I'm not the only one to have a bad day). It makes me feel closer to her personal life, and shows that she is just like everyone else and not just some musician that has no time for her fans.

Anderson Cooper

Anderson Cooper primarily uses his Twitter account to promote his show, "Anderson Cooper 360." I do not feel any closer to Anderson Cooper personally through this account of his because you can tell it is not really him posting the "tweets;" it is one of the producers of the show trying to get his followers to watch what is on that night.

The producer usually just writes a tag or a tease line that says something like "what is sex addiction?"; or "have you seen this story? http://bit.ly/1zHdEn. really tragic. Steve Perry on tonight to answer questions - send 'em - http://bit.ly/2DTkQi."

These tweets seem to arouse reader interest in reading the story on the AC 360 web site or watching it in a prolonged documentary / discussion on its scheduled air date. But in terms of celebrity intimacy, I actually feel farther from knowing who Anderson Cooper really is as a person, which is the one unattractive thing about his twitter account. It feels more like following an AC 360 advertisement than Anderson Cooper himself, which is annoying if you wanted to know what was on Anderson Cooper's mind.

Ashton Kutcher

Ashton Kutcher is possibly one of the most active Twitter users on the web today. Ashton was the first person to reach a million followers over the now-famous website. Although Ashton is constantly tweeting, I'm beginning to think the only thing he is promoting is Twitter itself. There are four main things that I have seen Ashton use Twitter for: Posting videos and links that he enjoys from the web, promoting his fantasy football team, tweeting with friends and the occasional promotion of a group or cause.

It is very interesting following Ashton because there is always something new, but from a public relations standpoint his twitter is almost useless. Surprisingly, today was a good day for his PR because he managed to tweet about peace.facebook.com which is a facebook cause dedicated to connecting those who are in a conflict with each other, e.g. the Israelis and Palestinians. Other than that, his Twitter would go on for days without another mention of anything relating to public relations.

I do believe that having Twitter is a good idea for Ashton though, because he does have so many fans and the fact that they can see his every thought is just another way to promote himself in the public eye.

John Mayer, relatable and respectable

For the most part, John Mayer uses Twitter for every little thing that goes on in his head, such as “Prepare Triscuits with a small piece of cheese and some garnish.” He has used his twitter to blog about problems going on in the entertainment industry such as Taylor Swift and Kanye's incident to Beyonce’s "cool" lyrics. He also always makes a point to put some lyrics of his own on his twitter along with deep poetry.
John has used his twitter to help publicize the work he is working on. He tweeted “What a day! Finalizing track list, album artwork, final video edit being printed. Calgon, take me away!” I think John uses his twitter in a very good way, he often tweets in a way that his fans can relate to him, such as talking about Triscuits and cheese. While at the same time he still manages to tastefully put in captivating lyrics that forces his followers to think, such as “True endurance doesn’t begin until the moment you find carrying on to be completely unfathomable. “ John's often relatable tweets, I think draws his followers in and his interestingly passionate lyrics keeps his followers guessing and longing for more.

Rihanna

Rihanna's new single debut Russian Roulette just released in anticipation of her "Rated R" album which is supposed to release Nov.23rd. There is alot of questions surrounding the influences of the album such as Chris Brown. Showing her "dark side" on the cover, Rihanna is wrapped in barbed wire and appears to be dangling by one arm. Many fans and viewers alike see the Russian Roulette single as as glorification of suicide and devil worship. However, coming to the Grammy winner's defense are both the song's writer, Ne-Yo, and producer Chuck Harmony. "There are no satanic messages in the music," Harmony wrote via Twitter. "Maybe if we did a remake of [Evans' single] 'Promise Ring,' then Rihanna wouldn't be a devil worshiper. People are so closed-minded. The song is not literal. Like most provocative art, its symbolism. Grow up."

Oprah Winfrey

Oprah Winfrey is a celebrity that is known globally. Not only is she known for her talk show that has been on for years, she is also known for her amazing contributions to the community and world.

Oprah has been using Twitter since April 17, 2009. She started off tweeting about her personal life and things that she was doing. Eventually, she began to tweet about her show, The Oprah Winfrey Show, and guests she was having on it.

After viewing several celebrity Twitters, I have come to realize that Oprah is one of the few that does not use Twitter every time she does something new. Instead, she uses it to publicize others and spread the news about them. She also tweets about people that should be recognized for the good that they are doing.

I feel that Oprah uses Twitter for a good reason. Every once in a while she tweets about things she is doing in her personal life, but she really uses it to spread messages about positive things. These things include Broadway performances, remembering victims on anniversaries, recognizing important people, and also her book club (I feel this is not considered part of her personal social life because it encourages people to read).

Kourtney Kardashian

Kourtney Kardashian announced that she was pregnant with her long-term boyfriend's baby. She was in Miami with her sister at the time in order to open their new Dash store. Initially, her sister Khloe was disappointed and a bit upset, because she is not the biggest fan of Scott, but she is fully supporting her sister. She announced, through Twitter, on October 16 that she is having a baby boy. She uses Twitter to basically speak of her daily routines and she also allows fans to follow her pregnancy and show through it. I feel as though this is helping her fan base because she allows them to really know what is going on in her life through her twitter account. She also promotes her sisters' events and also her own. Kournety gives updates on stores she's shopping at, magazines her sisters are in, shows she and her sisters are appearing on, etc. I feel like Kourtney is shown in a good light through her account. Overall, I feel as though twitter helps Kourtney Kardashian with her fan base and her career.

Chad Ocho Cinco of Cincy Bengals

Chad Ocho Cinco is a wide receiver for the Cincinnati Bengals who tweets at least, on average, 20 times an hour. Most of what he writes about are RT's (retweets) to other people who tweeted him and commenting on his day to day activities.
He comments a lot about daily practices with the team and upcoming games. Most of what he writes is extremely hard to understand for his Twitter feed being mostly commenting on what other people tweeted.
For being a guy who talks a lot of trash about teams and rival players, his Twitter is surprisingly soft. This is due to the NFL cracking down on players and their social media usage which makes his tweets not so entertaining to read. If he would tweet what he talks about in interviews about teams and other players i would read his tweets constantly.

Twitter - Dane Cook

For the most part, Dane Cook uses his Twitter account to promote himself, share the times and dates of his shows and to interact with his fans. He also follows up his shows with a post giving his reaction to the crowd or the city in which he performed. Sometimes he'll also offer backstage opportunities to his fans through Twitter.
He also gives his opinion on certain things happening in the media. For example, he commented on the Taylor Swift/Kanye West incident showing his support for Taylor. Sometimes he posts random quotes.
Once in a while he'll post something meaningful like, "I am thankful I had the greatest mother. She is in my heart during impossible times where I feel like no one is on my side. Night all." Also, "Catching up on fan mail. 2 every1 that wrote I've gotten u through tough times I want u 2 know u've done the same 4 me."
Over all, Dane Cook's posts are entertaining to read regardless of the matter, and he seems to be very in touch with his fans.

Britney Spears

Britney Spears employs very clever strategies to publicize her career via Twitter. Throughout the duration of her Circus tour, Britney has been posting hints as to where she is currently stationed with free tickets to her next show. She has been doing this in every city, posting a large number of hints, many of which include lyrics from her songs, via her tweets.

Britney also tweets about upcoming appearances she will be making, such as on Letterman. There is also a link in one of her tweets to a website at which fans can design a shirt similar to one she designed and wore in a show. Sometimes Britney even tweets as to where she is at the moment, like when she was outside of the M&M store in New York City.

Britney also treats her fans and followers to "Photos of the Day" which have been taken on her tour. In addition, photos of the winners of her ticket contest with Britney are posted. Britney also makes sure to thank her fans for their support often, such as by thanking them for attending her shows. She uses her tweets to inform her followers when new singles and videos are released, as well.

David Letterman admits affair
