Time Magazine Names The 50 Smartest Celebrities On Twitter; JWoww Makes The Top 10!

by Melissa on July 25th, 2014

Someone at Time Magazine, who has way too much time on his or her hands, decided to run the tweets written by the 500 most followed celebrities through a reading comprehension test to determine the 50 Smartest Celebrities on Twitter. The test adds up the number of three-syllable words used in a tweet to calculate the education level required to understand it.

Time reported, the average Twitter user tweets at a 4th grade reading level.

Leonardo DiCaprio took the #1 spot with a 7.5 grade reading level. He tweets a lot about ocean conservation, so this is not surprising. Pattie Mallette, the woman who gave us Justin Bieber, ranked #2. My guess is that the three-syllable word “beliebers” helped her win this spot. Jenni “JWoww” Farley was one of the highest ranking reality TV stars!

by Suzy on June 27th, 2014

Chris Brown may be able to capitalize on all of his recent legal issues. At least if BET has anything to say about it. TMZ is reporting that BET has been taking meetings with several production companies and they want to make one thing clear.

If the companies can shoot footage to cover Brown's life after his recent stint in jail, BET will absolutely put it on the air.
