After being the first person to reach 1 million Twitter followers 6 weeks ago, Ashton Kutcher seems to have reached another milestone by being the first person to reach 2 million Twitter followers.
It’s crazy to think that in just 6 weeks he managed to add one million followers. It wouldn’t be surprised if he had 5 million by the end of the year. The CNN breaking news Twitter account @cnnbrk has dropped down to 3rd place with 1.6 million followers, being overtaken by Ellen DeGeneres, which kind of surprised me.
Ashton Kutcher is very active on Twitter and interacts with his followers, the CNN account is popular because…well because CNN is popular but I the rise of the @TheEllenShow puzzles me a little. I know Ellen is very popular on the US but she doesn’t appear to reply to any followers so I can’t understand her meteroic rise.
Though by comparing their follower count over the last 3 months, it’s not out of the blue. It appears that she has wasn’t mentioned much in the news rush in April about breaking 1 million followers.
Do you think Ashton will be the first person to reach the 3 million mark?
Who cares? Is Ashton going to tweet me, send me a DM, or even follow me? Probably not. Why should I bother to reciprocate for him (or any other celebrity) if it’s going to be a one-way proposition?
