Ellen DeGeneres Twitter Follower to Win $1,000

August 10th, 2009 admin

We’re sure it was full of teen-irific surprises, but what really piqued our curiosity is that high profile celebrity Twitterer, Ellen DeGeneres ( @TheEllenShow ), won the award for Choice Twit (was Ashton in the running?), and in the process promised to make the prize worthwhile to a lucky Twitter follower. Ellen is currently the service’s second most popular user and is fast approaching 3 million followers.
