Charlie Sheen's Desperate Plea to Elon Musk Goes Viral - You Won't Believe What He's Begging For!

 Twitter has recently changed its verification system, requiring users to pay a monthly fee of $8 to subscribe to its 'Twitter Blue' service if they want to keep or get their blue tick badges. This decision has sparked controversy and backlash from many users, especially celebrities who have lost their verified status.



One of them is American actor Charlie Sheen, who is known for his roles in films such as Platoon, Wall Street, and The Three Musketeers, and TV shows such as Spin City and Two and a Half Men. Sheen has been vocal about his displeasure with the new policy, and has repeatedly asked Twitter CEO Elon Musk to restore his blue check.

On Saturday, Sheen tweeted a sarcastic message to Musk, saying "I'm sorry your fancy rocket exploded in spectacular fashion. I'm certain you'll build an even bigger and more explody one. Now, may I please have my blue check back? It would mean a lot to me. Thank you in advance."

He was referring to the recent failure of SpaceX's Starship SN11 prototype, which exploded during a high-altitude test flight.

Musk, who is also known for his witty and sometimes controversial tweets, replied to Sheen with a simple "I feel your pain". It is unclear whether Musk was being sincere or sarcastic, or whether he intends to do anything about Sheen's request.

Sheen is not the only celebrity who has lost his blue tick due to the new policy. Other notable names include singer Mariah Carey, rapper Snoop Dogg, actress Jennifer Aniston, and comedian Kevin Hart. Some of them have expressed their frustration and confusion on social media, while others have opted to ignore the change or embrace it.

Twitter has defended its decision to introduce 'Twitter Blue', saying that it is a way to offer users more features and benefits, such as undo tweet, bookmark folders, reader mode, and dedicated customer support. It also said that it will continue to verify accounts that meet its criteria for authenticity, notability, and activity.

However, many users have criticized Twitter for being greedy and unfair, arguing that verification should not be based on money, but on merit and public interest. They have also questioned the value and quality of the 'Twitter Blue' features, saying that they are not worth paying for or already available elsewhere.

What do you think of Twitter's new verification system? Do you think Charlie Sheen deserves his blue tick back? Let us know in the comments below.

Is Russel Crowe's UFO Real

Russel Crowe is in the news again, this time not for a movie he has starred in or something the actor did. This time it's totally different; the actor shared a UFO video via his Twitter account, which soon went viral. The video taken from his office shows three red UFOs moving around Sydney's Royal Botanic Gardens. This is about half a mile away form his office and was taken using a telephoto lens. The rumors doing the rounds on the internet is that this video was posted just a few hours after Russel was complaining on Twitter that his new flick ( Broken City) was being under-promoted. His rep has confirmed that the footage was filmed 4 years ago by Russel's friend acclaimed cinematographer Duane Manwiller.

Is the Russel Crowe UFO RealSo is it real? did the actor and his friend film a real UFO is was it something else. YouTube user has a fantastic explanation for what happened here and we definitely have a winner. Apparently it was a sailboat and the video below explains it in greater detail. Russel Crow just got burned. The video that could have rattled all of science.

DO APPS MAKE US FEEL LIKE CELEBRITIES?

I sit here in New York City, typing an opinion blog on my Macbook in my newest pair of high heels. How Carrie Bradshaw of me? No, it is not a coincidence. Many times I find myself saying “What Would Carrie Do?” My desire to emulate the characters of Sex and the City and other real life celebrities is evident in my purchases, and not simply pairs of Manolo Blahniks, but also my mobile devices and the accompanying applications.

How many times are pictures captured of celebrities checking out their IPhones while sitting in a coffee shop on the streets of LA or NYC? Are they simply texting? Often not. My guess is they are updating their Twitter, or uploading a picture on Instagram.

Kim Kardashian on TiwtterI made a Twitter account in 2011 but only after my roommate twisted my arm. I followed a few friends initially but when I found that I could follow some of my favorite celebrities like Kim Kardashian and Rihanna, my use of the app skyrocketed. Now I tweet like a madwoman and cannot go a half hour without checking in on what Justin Timberlake has to say. Many of my friends do not like to tweet but have an account solely to follow all their favorite athletes, actors and musicians. With Twitter, we are in real time with these celebrities, as if we know them personally.

My obsession with being in the know of celebrity news not only influenced my download of Twitter but of Instagram. I am sure Rihanna wouldn’t have accepted my Facebook friend request, but with Instagram I am able to see all her wild photographs and feel as though we are friends! This constant documentation of our lives via photographs gives us the feeling of being a celebrity. It’s as though we have our own paparazzi, photoshop included.

Many apps can help create a celebrity life lifestyle. For instance, with the UrbanDaddy app, I can put in that I am in SoHo with three of my girlfriends and we want drinks. UrbanDaddy can give us suggestions of some great bars in the area. POOF, I am reenacting a recurring scene in Sex and the City. A Manhattan anyone?

And your smart device can help you look like a celebrity too. Major retailers like Bloomingdales and Nordstrom have apps. Now I can purchase that outfit inspired by Victoria Beckham right from the palm of my hand.

The use of mobile technology to feed our celebrity addiction is not just limited to females and clothes. Think of all the guys who download the ESPN app to be in the know of all their favorite teams and athletes. ScoreCenter has them looking at their phones for constant updates.

I am not saying the only reason we have and use smart devices is because celebrities do. Many of us use them to help in our normal daily lives and at work. But it is undeniable that television and celebrities are a huge marketing tool for the tech world. Why do you think so many of them are in commercials for these devices? We value the opinion of our celebs and that includes what apps they are using now!

Lady Gaga and the Lions [Safari Pictures]

Lady Gaga has just wrapped up her tour of Johannesburg and from the tour comes a few Safari Pictures as Lady Gaga likes to call them. These photos were shared by her on Twitter and Facebook. Shows Lady Gaga out on Safari and meeting a pride of lions who are sleeping. The Safari vehicle goes a little closer and she gets her face in the frame with the lions in the background. We think she should have spent a little more time on Safari and shared a few more pics might have done quiet a bit for Wildlife Conversation. Given the amount of influence Lady Gaga has among her loyal and dedicated fans. Nature and Wildlife is something we support a lot and internationally recognized starts should also start doing their part for wildlife and nature. Take a look at the pics below and check it out for yourself.
