People YOU Should be Following on Twitter
If you aren't already on Twitter - then I guess you can ignore this post!
Here are my TOP TEN people that everyone should be following on Twitter:
10. @disneywords - Okay, so this really isn't a person, but they post all kinds of quotes from Disney movies and I just love to read and retweet them! (: Latest one I loved was, "I am a damsel, I am in distress. I can handle this. Have a nice day. –Megara (Hercules)".
9. @danecook - Yes, he's a bad dude most of the time, but his tweets are typically hilarious. Here is one that made me laugh out loud the other day: "I’ve come to the defeated realization that my cell phone just wants to be between the drivers seat & center console."
8. @ZooeyDeschanel - One of my ALL TIME favorite actresses, and she's hilarious and an avid tweeter to boot! (: Here tweet the other day asked "When will someone open a sunglasses store called fifty shades of shades?" Too funny!
7. @kramergirl - She's a One Tree Actress and a quick rising country star! My kind of girl!! Love her and all the photos that she posts from being on tour with Lee Brice and Brad Paisley!
"Been a fun 3 days from New York with @bradpaisley to opening for @leebrice & acoustic show for my loves @Sea http://instagr.am/p/OUM7PlLMsg/"
6. @SophiaBush - Wow, there are a lot of girls on my list... but this one is amazing! (: She's also a One Tree Hill actress but is also an activist. She stands for a lot of things and does a lot of charity work. I look forward to seeing her on her new show this fall, Partners.
5. @YahooOmg - This is the page where I get ALL my celeb info from! (:
4. @joelmchale - He is of course always good for a laugh! "I get disturbingly embarrassed for people who talk loud while wearing headphones." (:
3. @iamgreenfield - This is Schmidt from New Girl, Max Greenfield! Hilarious! (:
2. @JimGaffigan - He is one of my all time favorite comedians for this reason: "Turns out butterflies don't even taste like butter", his tweet from earlier this month. Haha.
1. @Followtheblonde - - My all time favorite female actress ever, Melissa Peterman! Loved her on Reba and loving her again on Baby Daddy on ABC Family. (: "He only wears them to drive. Good Dog. pic.twitter.com/EwYFS1t3"
