Many celebrities have Twitter accounts that they update with information on upcoming events they are attending, what's going on in their lives, or other things their fans might be interested in. Just as it can be exciting to meet a celebrity, it can be exciting for others if the celebrity they love follows them on Twitter. To learn how to get a celebrity following you on Twitter, use these steps.
Steps
Step 1. Follow the celebrity on Twitter
Find the celebrity account by entering her name in the Twitter search bar. If you don't get any results, try looking on his official website or other advertising material if there is a link to his account.
- If you see a blue icon with a white check mark next to a Twitter account, it means that Twitter has verified that person's identity. A verified account will ensure that the person controlling that account is in fact the celebrity you admire.
-
Beware of unverified Twitter accounts. It is easy to find photographs of a celebrity to use as a profile picture. Fans or other people might try to impersonate the celebrity to get attention and to spam.

Step 2. Pay attention to how the celebrity uses Twitter
The more active they are and the more personal their tweets are, the more likely you are to start a relationship with them. After answering the following questions, if your chosen celebrity doesn't seem to be too involved with Twitter, you might want to consider choosing another favorite celebrity.
- How frequent are his tweets?
- Do they post tweets themselves, or have they hired someone to do it for them?
- They post photos and links in addition to text tweets, or are limited to a minimum.
- Do they post their personal thoughts, or do they use Twitter as a way of promoting their image?
-
Have they ever sent a message addressed to one of their fans using the @ feature and had a conversation with them?

His tweets are personal enough to think he's posting them himself. The chances of being followed are decent if you can make a great impression on her, but note that her public interactions with fans on Twitter are limited.
Step 3. Think about why you are a fan of this celebrity
Do you like his music or his sports performances? Be sure to follow his latest activities and endeavors by reading news sites that relate to the character in question, such as TMZ, Perez Hilton, Yahoo! News, E! Online, and others. Sign up for Google News alerts to receive emails on articles mentioning your favorite celebrity.
Take note of the organizations and charities the celebrity is involved with. Follow them on Twitter too and learn about their work. If you find them in accordance with your principles, you might as well make a donation to those associations and let the celebrity know
Step 4. Involve the celebrity in your tweets
Use the hashtags she uses and is trying to promote. Retweet their tweets for those who follow you, especially when posting tweets for promotional purposes. Reply to his tweets with your personal thoughts. This will flood her with comments from you, letting her know your name and creating a relationship. As a result, they may start following you.
- Don't be annoying. Remember that they are normal people, and they will not be happy that someone contacts them over and over again or sends them the same fanatical message over and over. Make sure every interaction between you has meaning.
-
Choose the right time to interact with them. Responding to every single tweet will make you seem desperate and insincere. Only reply when you have something interesting to say or when you really want their tweets to reach your followers. Trying to interact with them more than twice a day is overkill.

Step 5. Post direct tweets to your favorite celebrity by quoting her with @
When she gets a result or accomplishes something noteworthy, write her a tweet to congratulate her and express your appreciation for their work.
- Make sure you pick the right time - hence the importance of staying up to date on the latest celebrity news. They are normal people; they will appreciate compliments on their latest album or new hairstyle as any of us would.
- The ideal result would be to be able to provoke an emotional reaction from the celebrity to your tweets. If you like her new dress, tell her why or write about a look that inspired you to choose. Feel free to include photos! If you liked their latest album, tell her you've been listening to it non-stop for the last 13 hours.
- Make sure you speak truthfully - celebrities can tell when someone is overreacting and just seek their attention instead of expressing sincere appreciation.
Step 6. Use humor and brilliance to make your tweets stand out
If you can make someone laugh, they will already find you a little more likeable and will respond more willingly.
Step 7. Ask questions whenever possible
Don't force questions, but when you have a really interesting question to ask, tweet it to encourage her to answer you. For example, you might ask when her next tour starts, and what her favorite dress is in her new collection.
-
Make sure your questions don't require a long answer, because Twitter only allows 140 characters per tweet. For example, a question about the source of inspiration that led her to write a song is more suitable an email or a private message on Twitter than a tweet.

Step 8. If you can build a relationship with the celebrity, answer them
Thank her for their response, comment on it, and continue the conversation naturally. Remember that they are unlikely to send you two consecutive tweets, so end the conversation quickly.
- It ends by suggesting that you would greatly appreciate if they followed you on Twitter, because you are a huge admirer of their work. Since you have already expressed your admiration for them and have had a personal relationship with them, they will be much more likely to accept your request.
-
Don't press, don't try to bribe or threaten celebrities to follow you. You will want them to do this because they appreciate you as an admirer. You will want them to want to follow you, and not for any other reason.

Advice
- Many celebrities hire a PR manager who manages their Twitter account on their behalf. If this is the case, it will be more difficult to get you to follow. Your chances of success will be much higher if you can reach out to the celebrity in person through Twitter.
- Don't be discouraged. Understand that it may be impossible to get some celebrities to follow you. Most likely, you are not the first person to ask them to follow you. As cunning and intriguing as your tweets to them may be, you won't pique their interest.
- Try to target celebrities who follow many other users. Some very famous celebrities follow a very small number of people (usually other famous people), so your chances of being followed are slim. If, on the other hand, you notice that a celebrity follows a lot of people and not just other famous people, there will be a much better chance that they will decide to follow you too.
- Celebrities get tons of messages, so remember to pick the right time to leave a message.
