Handing your Twitter account to minions to post for you is common in the celebrity game, though some, like UK TV presenter Jonathon Ross, like to do it themselves. That latter strategy may well have been proved to be the wiser one. The perils of handing the Twitter keys to others has just been proved by singer Britney Spears.
Most people know that it is her staff, not her, that updates her Twitter account, but today that may have proved to have been be a bad decision. Very bad. Her latest update, said: “HI Yall! Brit Brit here, just wanted to update you all on the size of my vagina. Its about 4 feet wide with razor sharp teeth.” [Screen grab below]. The update has now been removed.
Britney has 14,095 followers on Twitter. If this is an employee and not a hacker, something tells me she’ll be running the account differently in future.
Update: It looks like it was in fact a hacker. Obama and US TV presenter Bill O’Reilly’s twitter accounts have been got at as well. TechCrunch.com has more.
