I don’t mean handholding in a lovey dovey, romantic sense.

How many tweets out there are people asking the “celebs” to hold their hand? They lose all brain functions to think for themselves.

Celebs are humans just like you and me, they don’t have all of the answers, they’re  not going to wipe your backside for you, sure they’ll raise your profile if it’s for a great cause, but geez, c’mon all the other stuff.

You can figure all of that out for yourselves that’s what google, yahoo, bing, ask jeeves etc., were all invented for.

Don’t beg to be followed, to get someone well known  to follow you, have something to say.

Just because they’re well known doesn’t mean that they know more than you.

Sure respect those who are well known, but don’t put them on a pedestal.

When I reply to a celeb on twitter, I don’t do it to raise my profile, I do it because I agree with something they’ve said, or they’ve said something really funny, or I don’t agree with something they’ve said.

I don’t give a rat’s ass if they never reply back, I won’t cry, I won’t go and slash my wrists, boo hoo hoo.

Sure I’d be in awe for a few seconds but that would be it, I would be talking to just another human being.

I would say the majority of celebs would love it on twitter if you spoke to them as if they were just another person in the street.

Don’t suck up to them because they’re well known.

I tweet to people like Gary Vaynerchuk, Philip Schofield, Vernon Kay, Suzi Perry, Jason Bradbury et al,  because I see them as just like you and me, they have families, they go shopping just like you and me, heck they may even share the same interests as you and me.

Remember we can all become celebs if you’re in the right place at the right time, whether it be for good or bad reasons.
