The month of January is always best spent recollecting and reminiscing. We only realise all our mistakes, misgivings and wrong moves of 2011, when 2012 hits us hard in the face. And there’s no better place where mistakes and shameful comments were better captured and highlighted for all to see than Twitter.
When Twitter gets in the hand of a vocal celebrity, the result is word vomit. Here’s a look at all the shameful, bizarre and ugly things that were tweeted by our beloved celebrities in 2011.
