Ricky Martin has said one should not tweet if there is nothing interesting to tweet about, but fans find everything about celebrities interesting and there is no shortage to be seen this week on Twitter.
This week, Ali Zafar is on cloud nine. His film Tere Bin Laden is not only getting massive response from his fans but also from Indian celebrities who are promoting Zafar’s debut as an actor in B-town. While Salman Khan has introduced Zafar to his followers on the micro-blogging site, Karan Johar is showing off the film’s promotional shirt with a catch line “Good Looking Ullu Da Pattha”.
Asha Bhosle’s sister Lata Mangeshkar has also come aboard with the Twitter handle @mangeshkarlata. Good for Mangeshkar because Aamir Khan, who is reportedly joining Twitter on July 1, is about to face a tough time finding a Twitter handle as all the possible options are already taken up by his fans.
Many celebrities have observed the first death anniversary of the King of Pop Michael Jackson and dedicated their tweets him.
Here are the top ten tweets of the week.
Ali Zafar
Just saw the film again. Very proud of it. It portrays, in a funny manner, how in Bush’s era Muslims especially Pakistanis were made a target of discrimination and also what kind of role media can play.
Ali Noor
Today is the day my patience is being tested by people who have got no sense of punctuality or commitment.
Shahid Kapoor
Finally getting some importance on set now that I’m in costume and all.
Ashton Kutcher
When bad things happen to me that aren’t my fault, I try to see it as if I’m getting off light for the bad things I’ve done and not got caught.
Amitabh Bachchan
What is that one thing that makes you recognise a mistake, when you make it again? Experience!
Conan O’Brien
Yesterday was the longest day of the year, unless you count the time I interviewed Lance Armstrong.
Salman Taseer
The media has begun stalking my tweets and running them which impacts my spontaneity, means I have to be a bit more guarded now.
Ricky martin
When there is nothing interesting to tweet... shh! Night gang! Peace
Lata Mangeshkar
My humble tribute to one of the greatest pop artists ever, Michael Jackson. May his soul rest in peace. I never got the opportunity to meet him. I’ll always have this regret in my heart.
Mahesh Bhatt
It requires guts to keep running towards the finishing line knowing that you have lost the race & everyone is applauding the winner.
