Back in the 1980s, MTV actually played videos and shows like 'Growing Pains,' 'The Cosby Show' and 'Married With Children' ruled the airwaves. And even though you may have forgotten about them, many of the stars from those iconic juggernauts are still around -- on Twitter. But maybe they shouldn't be.
Here are a few celebrities from the '80s you should remember from their glory days rather than fo
Considering Twitter is the easiest medium for which celebs to communicate with fans, the press and one another, it's no surprise that a lot of famous folk are sort of addicted to it. So much so that when they leave, they come right back.
In a rap battle that is sure to be told throughout the ages, late night host and comedian Jimmy Kimmel had a sketch on his show that featured a child re-creating Kanye West's recent interview with BBC Radio -- and then all hell broke loose.
Instead of not getting offended by a child repeating everything West said in the interview verbatim, Yeezus went on an all caps lock Twitter rant last night (S
One Direction member Harry Styles may have a whopping 16.5 million Twitter followers, but as far as being an engaging tweeter, he's failed majorly. He's been found to be the "least engaging" Twitter celebrity, according to a recent study.
We know, shouldn't they be studying more important things? Like whether super intelligent sharks hold the cure to Alzheimer's? Probably.
It's Hump Day (September 18) but thankfully no one seemed to notice that much. In fact, some stars didn't even realize it was September as they were busy filming a Christmas episode of their reality show. We'll just let that sink in a bit. For the rest of us, it's mid-September.
Today (September 17) babies were shown off, clone armies were amassed, buildings were climbed, pop-stars got lost and eyebrows were raised in vaguely threatening manners. Basically, just another day in the Twitterverse. Excelsior!
Today is Monday, September 16, but the world of Twitter is sadder than usual because last night's 'Breaking Bad' ripped out the hearts of all its devoted fans and stomped on them until they had no feeling left. Yes, some of Twitter is still crying about it, but not necessarily all of them.
Good news everyone, it's Friday the 13th! Also Yom Kippur. Or we suppose that's technically bad news if you're the superstitious type and/or you're Jewish and have zero interest in fasting for your sins. For everyone else it's just an excuse to get 'Friday' stuck in your head. And, you know, drink.
Today (September 12), Twitter crashed so there wasn't as much celebrity tweeting as we would have liked. Thanks a lot, fail whale. Still, the stars were able to get a couple of jokes in before social media was ruined for the day, so at least there was that.
It's September 11, which means it has been 12 years since the 9/11 terrorist attacks, a day the citizens of the United States promised never to forget because much like the North, America remembers. Cue all the celebs of Twitter tweeting their memories and honoring those who were lost.
It's Sept. 10 in the real world and on Twitter (imagine that!), and today the celebs were all atwitter about the worst twerking heard 'round the world, a viral video which turned out to all be one giant hoax. Many were fooled.
Monday, Monday, was it all you hoped it would be? Is that a rhetorical question? We honestly don't know because on Mondays we can't be asked to use our brains to their full capacity. Also, we're still reeling from 'Breaking Bad' like the rest of the celebrity Twitter world.
Happy Friday! Today (Sept. 6), stars were arrested, took tumbles, joined Facebook and shared all manner of things from their upcoming tours to their poetry to their album artwork. Basically, just your average day in the world of celebrities on the Twitters.
Carrie Underwood fell on her behind onstage last night (Sept. 5) in Corpus Christi, Texas, when her sky-high stilettos caught on her long-hanging shirt and caused her to lose her balance.
Happy almost Friday, everyone! It's still the Jewish New Year, so go ahead and keep on partying like it's 5774. Read: inside flying cars, which have to be invented by then. Twitter was a mixed bag today (Sept. 5), but there was a bunch of old man jokes and even some collaboration afoot.
Teen pop-star Austin Mahone may have managed to snag a Moonman at the MTV Video Music Awards but he had a lot of trouble trying to clinch that right of teen passage, the much coveted driver's license.
