I don't even understand the appeal of any movie star following someone on Twitter. Maybe it's because I don't use Twitter but it's not like the star would care about what you're posting anyways.

Yeah same, since i do not use Twitter i do not understand the appeal. Maybe its a Twitter community thing, where you can brag about a washed up 90s sit com "star" following you on Twitter, or being friends with them on Facebook.

Well it would give you one brag to your followers (People that follow what you tweet). On top of that, you know that celebrity is seeing whatever great (or crap) you are posting on twitter. Kind of like this celebrity is acknowledging your existence, if that kind of thing is important to you =P

It wouldn't apply to this circumstance since you are essentially paying for them to follow you, but if a random 'celeb' likes you and follows you that's kind of a nice compliment, that you are interesting or entertaining enough for some famous person to follow you and maybe even retweet your tweets to their followers. Depends if you need/want/like that kind of action.

It all depends how much you value the cult of celebrity or individual celebrities. I was recently followed by quite a famous voice actor, which was nice of him, but looking at his profile, he follows pretty much anyone that tweets him. All I did was ask them a question, and they got back to me, which I really appreciate. They followed me and I kind of felt I had to return the favour.

To me I would much rather tweet back and forth with someone famous/celeb/someone I admire/look up to, have a conversation with them, than simply having them follow me. It's nice to have a person/company take their time to tweet you or retweet you.

With twitter its so much easier to get access to them and hear there thoughts, where as before you would have to phone in on a radio station, email them, take part in a web chat etc. It just makes things a lot faster, easier and closer.

When a popular account retweets you all their follows see and might look you up and follow you, you feed off of the persons fame to get some of your own, which again is if you want to be popular on twitter.

Some people use twitter for friends, some for work, some as a news feed, some for community, some to have a voice, and some to be closer to people they admire.

If she promised nude pics from 10 years ago to fulfil my twisted teenage fantasies, I'd consider putting some cash down. (would that make her a whore?)

Depends on your definition of whore, is it selling something sexual for her own gain, yes. Is it any different to the myriad of 'soft porn stars' that have websites where you can get nude pictures of them (SuicideGirls for example)? not really. Just call it an artistic nude and you're fine =P

Guys, seriously, I want to be in this movie. I already pledged money (a lot) for the opportunity to be in a movie and I've already told all my friends and they will think I'm an idiot if this doesn't follow through so seriously please donate.

You do know there aren't any talking cats in this, right?

She was very clear about it.

Wait, she hasn't cancelled this?

She's about to do a publicity stunt for it

So stay tuned we will be:

Putting up our new video
Presenting the shirt and poster designs
Adding and restructuring of our awards and levels
Maybe announcing an new cast member
We might even try a publicity stunt. So watch for us on the news ( Who knows what Darci might do???)

It's pretty sad, after pimping this Kickstarter for an entire month she only has 280 backers (70 of which only paid a dollar).

She should've canceled this Kickstarter after the first week and pretended like some big name studio was interested in taking over the project, then hoped everyone would quickly forget about it. She is just humiliating herself at this point.

Tommy Wiseau should start a Kickstarter for a Room sequel.

Best idea.

The only thing I would worry about is capturing lightning in a bottle twice.
I don't think Wiseau pretending to be in on the joke can be as funny as him trying to make a legitimate drama.

True.

And Tommy clearly doesn't need Kickstarter considering he managed to scrounge up $6 million for The Room.

I think I've said this before, but if I were her agent I'd advise the lady to say the project was off due to "scheduling conflicts" or maybe even stage a DUI arrest. Anything would be preferable to allowing this KS reach its natural end.

But then again, her latest update shows that the girl has zero common sense -

We plan to have this all done by the May 13th so be ready to spread the word.

She thinks that after announcing a new cast member (Meryl Streep as her mother, no doubt) and revealing what the T-shirts and tote bags look like, she'll be able to raise $ 1,550,000 in TWELVE DAYS. It's almost sad.

Meryl Streep in the lead role might be something worth kickstarting.

Where's that snippy, spiffy, snooty, and arrogant cat, human?

If they were to make a show about Salem, I would so fund that.

What's with the animosity? I'm not a backer or a fan of her work but damn. What did she do?

She was upset that Farrah Fawcett's death overshadowed her weightloss-after-pregnancy-bullshit story.

She apologized, but that your mind goes there can be kind of telling.

Considering Farrah Fawcett's death was overshadowed by Michael Jackson's, she has no right to complain about something like that, the more I find out about her the more I dislike her.
