We know plenty of celebrity twits – but how about celebrity Twitterers?

The blue bird of Twitter has been soaring recently, attracting some of the biggest names in the entertainment industry to share their thoughts with the internet community. It’s not hard to understand why it’s such a big hit among the inhabitants of celeb-land – after all, it means they get a chance to talk about their favourite topic – themselves.

For those of you who have never heard of Twitter (where the hell have you been?), it’s basically the latest social messaging fad.

Of course, at hecklerspray, we do not have PR slaves at our beck and call. We also try and avoid communicating with other people as much as possible – that’s why we’re based in London. So we rely on some homeless guy called Barry to fill our fans in with the latest goings-on at Hecklerspray Towers, fed only by the stale Jaffa Cakes and half-drunk cans of flat Dr Pepper we throw his way from time to time.

It’s proved to be a big hit, with some even suggesting that it’s better than the site itself. Of course, this is, firstly, totally wrong, because on the site, well, we have pictures and stuff. It’s also highly frustrating, as we could have saved a fortune on Stu’s wages.

Anyway, as we mentioned before, some celebs – let’s call them Twits – have no such problems. They happily tell those who follow them on Twitter what they’re up to.

Well, to make things easy for you, we have decided to compile a few lists of celebrities you can follow on Twitter. What you do from thereon, is entirely up to you – but just remember who gave you the details in the first place.
