Charlie Sheen sets new Guinness World Record for Twitter

By

Charlie Sheen is a hot topic right now although we wonder how long before that flaming meteor hits the ground in spectacular fashion. Evidence of that is clear when it was observed that Mr. Sheen opened a Twitter account and within 25 hours and 17 minutes he gained 1 million followers. Likely, a fair chunk of these are there simply to watch the train wreck and no doubt news stories like this will drive that number up even more. Still, it’s pretty amazing how fast he gained followers without sending a single tweet.

Charlie Sheen may or may not be “winning,” in life, but he has won a rare honor: the “Fastest Time to Reach 1 Million Followers” Guinness World Record. Guinness community manager Dan Barrett says the agency “just researched and approved” the record this morning. According to Barrett, Sheen reached that milestone in 25 hours and 17 minutes. As of this writing, Sheen’s Twitter account, @CharlieSheen, has more than 1.3 million followers.
