Popular actor Ashton Kutcher (Demi Moore’s boyfriend for some) has recently been named Twitter King, being the first person to achieve 1 million followers on Twitter this week, beating out network giant, CNN. Twitter, for those of you who are living outside our galaxy, is a micro-blogging site that enables its users to send and read other users’ updates known as tweets.Long been the leader of the pack, CNN commands the biggest followers in twitterverse, until recently. Dubbed as the defeat of “the establishment” over “the people,” Kutcher claimed the lead and brought enormous media attention in the process.
In one of his most talked about interviews, Kutcher even teased he will “ding dong ditch” billionaire Ted Turner (founder of CNN) if he beats CNN to million Twitter followers. What is a ding dong ditch you may ask? Well, it’s when you go up to a person’s house, ring their doorbell, then run away and watch as they look around to see who’s there. Would be fun if he actually does that, eh?
Now that the “small guys” are done playing, all eyes are on Oprah Winfrey, the media celebrity giant who recently joined the site. Based on recent reports, the Queen has already gained 300,000 followers in just a day. Take that.
