Here are the top 5 biggest mistakes celebrities made on Twitter you should definitely avoid doing (especially if you yourself are a celebrity – or trying to become one!)
Sure, technology had been booming these past few years. You can now connect to people who are thousands miles away from you and talk to them via Skype, or by simply using your cellphone. You can now have instant friendship with Facebook, instant pictures via Instagram, instant updates of celebrities on Twitter. But do you know what else is instant? Instant celebrity mistakes on Twitter which just can’t help but go shamefully viral each and every day!
Some people have this preconceived notion that their idols, beloved actresses, actors, models, sports icons, and celebrities are perfect human beings who are blameless. Little do they know that celebrity or not – everyone is meant to do something utterly rash which would cost them some haters, critiques, and even some huge pile of money! Be sure not to skip our list of 9 celebrities who lost it in public, too.
There’s no wonder why these people add up to those celebrities who have damaged their very own careers by their own doing!
You have probably heard about several celebrity Twitter mistakes like a dozen of times already. But I’d bet you haven’t heard about the worst ones yet; so here are top 5 biggest mistakes celebrities made on Twitter:
5. Martha Stewart’s Ipad troubles
Have you ever heard about those crazy celebrity epic fails in which your idols just can’t help but make a complete fool of themselves, not only in front of a small crowd, but unfortunately the whole wide world? Well, dear Martha is definitely one of the celebrities on Twitter who have done that exact thing!
Back in September 25, 2013, Martha Stewart had her iPad damaged and practically shared it via Twitter, asking if she should call Apple so that a sales representative would come by her house and pick up the broken iPad. Good luck to that! Haha!
On the next day, Martha posted that she was still waiting for a representative to come by her house. And of course no representative came! As if there was any surprise to that. Whatever Martha. Even the president has to send someone to an Apple service center to fix his iPad, you know!
Martha, after receiving negative comments and some bashing, eventually posted that she was just kidding and was just trying to make a joke out of her broken iPad.
4. Mark Cuban’s costly tweet
Now let’s move on to the extremely rich and powerful celebrity mistakes on Twitter category. For those of you who hates sports, does not follow basketball, or was born yesterday, Mark Cuban is none other than the proud and immensely wealthy owner of the basketball team Dallas Mavericks.
So anyway, Cuban has already been into lots of troubles because of his intense support and fandom to Dallas Mavericks. Just last 2009, the Mavs owner tweeted, both questioning the judgment of the officials and seemingly trying to pick up a fight with JR Smith.
Cuban was then fined and paid $25,000. Of course, the guy does not even care, he even tweeted another smart comment saying that NBA can make money because of Twitter. Nice one, Cuban.
However, Cuban just can’t keep his thoughts to himself as he strikes again. Last 2013 he posted a tweet telling the NBA officials to fix their jobs. Oh well, Cuban has lots of dough to pay for the fines, so, “Go Mark Cuban, give us more of your celebrity epic fails on Twitter!”
3. Twitter first-timer Ochocinco
Here is another Sports guy who’s also one of the unlucky celebrities on Twitter: Chad Johnson, also known as “Ochocinco”. Being a first-time Twitter user, back in the year 2010, Ochocinco was probably too excited to show off to his fans and made a mistake which cost him $25,000!
Basically, there are laws and regulations which NFL players are obliged to follow, and one of those rules is to refrain from broadcasting ongoing games. You see, players are not allowed to tweet or post via Facebook or IG, or update anything on the social media, 90 minutes before the game starts and until the media was already able to pour everything out.
Poor Ochocinco, probably too psyched about Twitter and totally forgetting about the rules, posted about the hard hit he caught on their preseason match versus the Eagles.
So the next time you receive those hard hits, try to contain yourself, alright Ochocinco?
2. Alison Pill’s naked truth
Remember the main lady star on The Newsroom and Original Sin? That blond girl who was also with Mark Cera on Scott Pilgrim vs. The World? Yeap, that’s Alison Pill. And even she entered the wonderful world of celebrity epic fails on Twitter!
Last September 2013, Alison accidentally posted a topless picture of herself to her 13 597 followers on Twitter! According to Alison, the photo was supposed to be privately sent to her fiancé Jay Baruchel, but since her phone was new and she was still trying to figure out how it works; the photo was shown to the public.
Good thing though that instead of stressing herself and accusing hackers for the incident, Alison manned up and owned everything. Way to go girl! Next time, try attaching your sexy photo via email! Haha!
1. Katy Perry tells the world her digits
And the latest of these top 5 biggest mistakes celebrities made on Twitter? None other than “Roar” singer, Katy Perry’s! Just this April 1st, the pop star singer uploaded a video of her beloved pooch, Butters. Aside from shocking her fans with her new hairstyle, she also unknowingly displayed her very own phone number on Butters’ dog tag.
The result of this Twitter epic fail? Katy Perry received millions of calls from fans and followers!
So try to be very careful next time, eh Katy?
