Ashton Kutcher Defeats CNN
Ashton Kutcher has become the first member of Twitter to have over 1 million followers, defeating CNN in a highly contested matchup.
From MSNBC:
Surrounded by his wife, Demi Moore, Soleil Moon Frye and Sean “Diddy” Combs supporting him via phone, the star officially crossed the one million mark, beating out rival CNN Breaking News shortly after 11 p.m. PT on Thursday.
“Where’s the champagne, where’s the champagne?” Kutcher said on his Ustream.TV Web feed just a short while before reaching his goal. “We’ve gotta pop the cork on this folks.”
CNN, which lost by less than 1,200 followers, quickly congratulated the star.
“Congrats @aplusk. Ashton Kutcher is the first twitter account to reach 1MM followers,” someone wrote on their Twitter account page.
