The Ghost Tweeterer

by Wendi // April 13, 2009

ghostAccording to a recent article in The New York Times, celebrities are now hiring people to ghost write their Twitter posts. After giving it a few seconds of thought, I’ve decided that this would be a fantastic job for me. True, I’m a suburban mother who’s completely out of touch with Hollywood, I’ve never seen a Twitter post, much less written one, and I think it’s a little ridiculous to receive 140-character-long messages about how happy Ashton Kutcher is to drink his morning latte, but really, none of that matters much. I still think I’m perfect for the job.

In fact, here are a few sample tweets I’ve written on behalf of various celebrities. As you can see, I pretty much nailed ’em.

Britney Spears: Hey, y’all! It’s me, Britney! Tough choice–do I want paper or plastic??!? These Wal-Mart questions make my head hurt!! But not enough to shave it!! Ha ha ha!!!

Kate Winslet: Ugh! Out of Swiffer refills. Again!

Ernest Borgnine: Am I dead or alive? I’d really like to know because I have a hot stone massage scheduled for 4 o’clock. Let me know, my peeps! Thanx!!!

Robert DeNiro: Some people just don’t understand what “10 Items or Less” means. Jeez! Learn how to count, you dumb humps!

Vin Diesel: What do this? Me punchy keys? Do need kno spell? Twittah? Tweetah? Tweety Burd? He funny! Ugh! Dis hard! Stupid machine from future. Vin no want do no more. Vin sleepy.

Spencer Pratt: Good God, I’m such a douche.

Jennifer Aniston: Just signed up with Match.com because I’m 40 & desperate! (Brad sux!!) Meeting blind date “BadBoi304” @ Chili’s tonight! Hope we become good “Friends”! ROFLMAO!

Seth Rogan: Why does a dumpy guy like me make more movies than Daniel Craig who should be in every movie possible just so the housewives of the world don’t riot? Seriously, dude.

Harrison Ford: OMG, am I handsome. So, so incredibly handsome. Even at my age. What the hell am I doing with Calista? She’s got the bodyweight of a toddler. Must rethink. OK, laters!

Miley Cyrus: I’m 16 and dating a hot 20 year-old model! And driving a Porsche! WTF? Don’t my parents realize I’m headed straight for Dana Plato city? Think, Billy Ray. Think.

Larry King: What is this thing? Do I talk into it? Or should I be using dots and dashes? Can you hear me? Who is this? Where am I? Where’s my blanket? Should I type now? Is it an adding mach

Martha Stewart: I’ve just created a lovely spring basket out of the toilet seat covers and tampons I found whilst peeing in the ladies restroom at LAX! It’s a spectacular centerpiece!

Kim Kardashian: I’m more famous for my big booty than the winners of the Nobel Peace Prize are for making the world a better place. Man, I love this country. Ciao!!

Barry Manilow: I love my fans! Especially you,Wendi!! You’re a miracle, a true-blue spectacle & people should stop calling you a f*@*ing lameass Fanilow! Looks like YOU made it, babe!

Oh, Barry. I did, didn’t I?

    I agree with Marinka. Hell, if I knew you were the ghostwriter, I might actually give a damn about what these people are tweeting. (and I’m SOOOO with you on the Daniel Craig thing…sign me up for the riot)

    her name is wendi,
    she likes write things.
    her clever lines she likes to share,
    shouting out to everywhere.
    she helps the a-list stars,
    when they are drunk in bars,
    she can pump out a one line message
    when they crash their cars.
    cuz she twitters,
    twitters with glitter.
    her comments are sharp but not bitter,
    (there at) the twitter
    twitter with glitter
    a-list and a-holes
    can reach all their e-goals
    at the twitter,
    with wendi a.

    All very funny, but the Larry King bit was snort-inducing. I could hear him saying it in my head, clear as a bell, even over the other voices.

    ps Strange to think that if we had read that post twenty years ago it wouldn’t have made any sense. Actually, not sure it makes too much sense now….

    “Seth Rogan: Why does a dumpy guy like me make more movies than Daniel Craig who should be in every movie possible just so the housewives of the world don’t riot? Seriously, dude.”Thank you!

    Okay, Seth is friggin’ funny and laughing is my narcotic of choice, but I wouldn’t mind more of the ab-tastic Craigster at all.

    I’m so glad you finally worked Larry King into a post.

    Will you tweet for me?

    Joaquin Phoenix
    Joe Francis
    Simon Cowell
    The entire Bush administration
    John Mayer

    Can I hire you to write my Tweets? I can pay you in M&Ms depending on this week's list of bills.

    Man, that is the first time I've laughed right outloud at a post in awhile. Love the laughs. Have to keep coming back here. It's addicting.

    April 19, 2009 at 11:01 am

    Ok, so I think I would have to agree with your assessment of pretty much everyone!

    Good show, WA!

    Good show!

    Ok, I think I must be the only person in the WORLD to not know what Twitter is…
