It's funny to me when people claim to "know" celebrities and get personal or call the celebrity "bro" first of all no one cares and in all actuality when you are close to someone like that, you don't need to broadcast that on a social network. No one needs to know the "connections" you have and no one cares.Camilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02921921870031968013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7572486819467381603.post-85521348936144309372010-05-10T22:23:23.483-05:002010-05-10T22:23:23.483-05:00@Alexius:

It's OK to ...You had me at e-throwing panties!<br /><br />It's OK to flirt with celebrities if you want to, or RT them. After all, they are regular people with feelings. Personally, I only follow celebrities that talk to their followers as opposed to those who just tweet about their projects: I can read about their work somewhere else, Twitter is really about relationships.<br /><br />Yes, I'm guilty of getting all geeked-up with a celeb @ messages or RTs me, but only the ones who's intelligence and work I respect (like @fatbellybella, @indiaarie, @Mo_Rocca, @questlove, @danielsunjata, @RachelTrue) or who have something constructive to say. Yes, I've conversed with all the people I've named above, but if they were stupid about it, I'd definitely unfollow.<br /><br />Lots of celebs (like "regular" people) encourage groupie behavior because they tweet ratchet-ass content and promote ignorant-ass viewpoints. As such, they will get the mindless groupies with naked avatar photos who use bad grammar and all caps.

I quickly found this out from watching all of the infamous reality shows and reading a couple of their timelines.Even people that I really admire I refuse to follow because I appreciate my perception of them and I would rather not have it tainted. <br /><br />Nonetheless people want 15 minutes of fame and if getting a response from a celeb would make their day so be it. Even though the response may be as random as winning the lotto it may make them happy lol.<br /><br />The title,Twitter Groupies, makes me giggle.Shemika Snoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7572486819467381603.post-87197235831577984112010-05-10T21:44:51.573-05:002010-05-10T21:44:51.573-05:00I'm not sure I follow any twitter groupies. it...I'm not sure I follow any twitter groupies. it is really not that serious. I'm a fan of a lot of ppl but I'd never play myself on the internet for them--dont they know their tweets are being archived by the library of congress?! you can't show your crazy all in the wide like that, in person is MUCH better (I kid...)<br /><br />anyway, so not that serious to do any of those things you mentioned on twitter for ANYONE.Reeciehttp://musicmakesmehigh.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7572486819467381603.post-64030013343060745422010-05-10T21:43:00.541-05:002010-05-10T21:43:00.541-05:00Glad somebody spoke on it Tun...seems to be a prev...Glad somebody spoke on it Tun...seems to be a prevelant nuisance as of late that most can agree with.
